AceShowbiz - Super Bowl LIII will not be the only big game that sports fans get to enjoy next month. The 2019 NBA All-Star Game will take place at Spectrum Center in Charlotte, North Carolina on February 17 with a star-studded line of performers providing musical entertainment during the upcoming game.

Among them is J. Cole, who is tapped to perform a medley of his hits during the halftime show of the game. Meanwhile, Meek Mill will open the night as the All-Stars teams are introduced. Carly Rae Jepsen is set to take the stage to perform a rendition of the Canadian National Anthem, while R&B singer Anthony Hamilton will be in charge for the performance of the U.S. National Anthem.

As for the teams, LeBron James serves as the captain for the West team which starting line up includes the likes of James Harden, Stephen Curry, Paul George and Kevin Durrant. Serving as the captain for the East team is Giannis Antetokounmpo, who will lead Kyrie Irving, Kemba Walker and Joel Embiid among others.

The 68th annual NBA All-Star Game will air live at 8 P.M. ET on TNT and will be seen by fans in more than 200 countries and territories in more than 40 languages.

Cole follows N.E.R.D, who headlined last year's All-Star Game alongside Migos. The Dreamville Records founder recently released a standalone single entitled "Middle Game", which was believed to be a diss track aimed at longtime nemesis Kanye West and Pusha T. Cole has also been working on his sixth studio album, though the title has not been confirmed.

Last year, the rapper indicated that he had been putting in work on both "The Fall Off" album and his Kill Edward project, but he didn't specify which project would serve as the follow-up to "KOD". For your information, Kill Edward is Cole's alter ego who is featured on "KOD" tracks "The Cut Off" and "Friends".
