Kanye West is heading back to "Saturday Night Live". The rapper is scheduled to drop by the NBC variety show on a February 13 episode as a musical guest. Actress/comedienne Melissa McCarthy is tapped as a host.

Kanye has appeared on the show numerous times in the past. Last year, the rapper performed at the "SNL" 40th anniversary special. His "SNL" return comes two days after his listening party for new album "Waves" at Madison Square Garden.

Meanwhile, the upcoming February 13 episode will be Melissa's third time hosting the "SNL". The "Spy" actress first hosted the show in 2011 and returned in 2014.

Before Kanye West-Melissa McCarthy tandem, Larry David will make his debut as a host with The 1975 as a performer on February 6.
