Taking place in Finsbury Park from the 12th-14th July, other stars performing in 2024 include J Hus, Future and Ice Spice.
With some of the biggest names in global rap music, hip-hop fans have expressed extreme excitement over the lineup reveal.
London rapper 21 Savage said: “I’m so happy to be returning home to the UK and headlining Wireless for the very first time.”
21 Savage and J Hus will be co-headlining Saturday night supported by Asake, Gunna and Sexyy Red.
Nicki Minaj, who released her chart-topping record Pink Friday 2 in December, took to X and said: “This will be iconic.”
Fans are already labelling the 12th July “Pink Friday” in honour of Minaj’s Friday night headline.
Paint the Town Red singer Doja Cat will close the festival on Sunday, following performances from Tyla, Rema and Digga D.
Other acts across the weekend include Vanessa Bling, Sean Paul, Fridayy, Teezo Touchdown, Shallipopi and more to be announced.
