The music star, who rose to prominence on social media last year and wears a studded black rose mask to conceal his identity, will perform in London in June.

Known only as Dide, the incognito rapper has sparked frenzied speculation about his identity, with Arsenal's Eddie Nketiah, Bukayo Saka and Reiss Nelson, Chelsea's Noni Madueke, Fulham's Alex Iwobi and West Ham's Michail Antonio among the names thrown into the mix.

"The main thing for me is the music rather than the football player," he told Sky News exclusively Iast year, in his first on-camera interview. "I guess fans and the public ran with all these different opinions, which is cool."

Who is Dide? Sky News meets the mystery rapper

Announcing his first live show, he said: "Finally, my first live show! My first live public performance.

"I know you all have been getting on to me about doing one. You can't miss this!"

The show will take place at The Lower Third on Denmark Street in Soho, central London, on 20 June.

Interestingly, England take on Denmark for their second group-stage match of Euro 2024 in Germany that afternoon. Could this be a reason behind his choice of venue, or coincidence?

Either way, presumably he won't be at the match - ruling out Saka, who is in the England squad - but hopefully he'll get to watch before he goes on stage.

However, there's no mention of the England game in his announcement.

"Thank you for your support," Dide added. "See you at the show."

Ahead of the gig announcement, Dide shared a video on social media announcing Energy, which could be a new track, to be released on Thursday.

"Time to peel back the layers," he wrote alongside the clip. "Mask off."

During our interview last year, he told Sky News his identity would be revealed in the future.

Fans will no doubt be watching to see if and when that happens.

Pre-sale tickets are available from 23 May, with general tickets on sale from 28 May.
