Kanye and Justin Timberlake will both play surprise London shows this month

Brace yourself, internet: Kanye West and Justin Timberlake, have announced dates in London. Kanye will play Hammersmith Apollo on February 24th, whilst Timberlake will be at the The Forum in Kentish Town post-BRITs on Wednesday February 20th.

If the idea of two of the biggest popstars on Planet Earth playing intimate gigs (“intimate” is here relative to their stature, i.e. “not arenas”) in the UK in quick succession is too much for you, then here’s the real kicker: tickets for both shows go on sale at 9am tomorrow. Good luck with the Ticketmaster servers.

Update: The NME have just reported that Kanye has announced a second date (Saturday 23rd February) at the Hammersmith Apollo. Tickets are on sale now.
