After five days of tweeting cryptic clues and hints, Student Entertainment Events officials announced this afternoon that hip-hop artist B.o.B will headline this year’s Art Attack on May 4.
Tickets will go on sale Thursday at the Hoff Ticket Office in Stamp Student Union or at www.umdtickets.com.
SEE officials said B.o.B was chosen based on student responses to a survey the group sent out in early March and his availability. The Dean’s List will also perform.
The Grammy-nominated artist is known for his rap/sung collaborations to the likes of Bruno Mars, Paramore’s Haley Williams and Rivers Cuomo of Weezer. His break-through album, “The Adventures of Bobby Ray,” reached the top spot on the charts and was nominated for Best Rap Album at the 2011 Grammy Awards.
B.o.B’s recent single “So Good” currently holds the number 27 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 and is the thirteenth most downloaded song on iTunes.
