US rapper Jay-Z has signed up to perform at the Brit Awards next year, according to reports.

The 39-year-old hip-hop star will reportedly take the stage at the awards bash in the UK, in February, to perform a medley of his hits with a special guest or two.

It is thought he could bring A-list pals including Alicia Keys, Coldplay frontman Chris Martin or even wife Beyoncé along for his set at the show.

He has already performed at the MTV Video Music Awards and MTV Europe Music Awards this year, playing hit single Empire State Of Mind.

Robbie Williams has already been confirmed to perform at the Brits and is being touted to receive the Outstanding Contribution award.
