Travis Scott is booked to be the musical guest for the October 6 episode of Saturday Night Live, with Crazy Rich Asians‘ Awkwafina tapped for hosting duties.

Scott is currently promoting his most recent album Astroworld and his SNL appearance comes after an emotional show in Las Vegas during which he paid tribute to Mac Miller.

La Flame’s appearance on SNL will come the week after Kanye West is set to feature as the musical guest, kickstarting the new season of the show. West recently revealed that in place of the scheduled host Adam Driver, he’d prefer disgraced comedian Louis C.K. to take over hosting duties.
