Jay-Z and Eminem have announced details of two huge hometown shows later this summer.

Eminem will top the bill at Comerica Park in Detroit on September 2, while Jay-Z is set to headline the Yankee Stadium in New York on September 13.

Both concerts will coincide with baseball games in each respective stadium.

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime set of shows and I know we're both really going to bring it to our hometowns," Eminem said.

"The fans are going to love this and so am I. It's gonna be historic."

Jay-Z described the gigs, which will both be produced by Live Nation, as a “dream come true”.
