18-time Grammy winner Paul McCartney, seven-time winner Rihanna, and 21-time Grammy winner Kanye West are confirmed to perform on the 57th Annual Grammy Awards. This year’s Grammys will take place on February 8th and will air on CBS from 8-11:30pm ET/PT. LL Cool J returns as host.

West took Swift’s mic and said, “Yo, Taylor, I’m really happy for you, I’mma let you finish, but Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time! One of the best videos of all time!”

Rihanna, McCartney, and West join a list of artists who’ll be performing that includes AC/DC, Tony Bennett, Lady Gaga, Eric Church, Common, John Legend, Ariana Grande, Hozier, Annie Lennox, Jessie J, Tom Jones, Miranda Lambert, Adam Levine, Gwen Stefani, Madonna, Ed Sheeran, Sam Smith, Usher, and Pharrell Williams.
