“All-Amerikkkan Badass,” Joey Bada$$’ sophomore studio album, arrives on Friday, April 7.

To support the upcoming release, the hip-hop artist takes the stage on Monday’s “Late Show With Stephen Colbert.”

The performance marks Bada$$’ first appearance on the Colbert-hosted talk show. It follows host Stephen Colbert’s interviews with Jason Sudeikis and Jennifer Esposito.

Due to coverage of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament, the episode will air later than the usual 11:35PM ET/10:35PM CT start time in the east and central time zones. CBS is anticipating a 12:05AM start time, but that will very much depend on the length of Monday’s game.

In any event, the episode will air in the next few hours.
