Kanye West & Iggy Azalea Added To The 'Made In America' Lineup

Looks like Jay Z is stepping up his game for the Los Angeles leg of his Budweiser Made in America tour. The music fest heads added Kanye West and Iggy Azalea to the bill.
Prior to that announcement, the top headliners for the two-day event, which will be held at downtown's Grand Park on August 30 and 31, were Imagine Dragons, Kendrick Lamar and John Mayer. The addition of Kanye and Iggy adds some more star power to the list. The "Yeezus" rapper is also performing at Made in America's Philadelphia event.
