The Southern Caifornia festival will mark the rapper/singer’s first public appearance since the birth of her son in February, just days after her performance of Paper Planes with Kanye West, Jay-Z, and Lil Wayne at the Grammy Awards.

Other late additions to the Coachella bill include Devendra Banhart, the Orb, Chemical Bros., Murder City Devils and Etienne de Crecy.
