There is one foolproof way to follow up Beyoncé: more Beyoncé.

Queen Bey is set to headline the second TIDAL X benefit show at Barclays Center in Brooklyn on Oct. 15 after doing a pretty killer job the first time around.

Nicki Minaj, who performed "Feeling Myself" with Bey for the first time live at the show last year will be back. Alicia Keys, Ms. Lauryn Hill, Common, TIP, DNCE, Blood Orange and Robin Thicke, who could be teasing some new music, are also set to take the stage.

Proceeds from the show go to Robin Hood, an organization that helps fight poverty in New York City.

Emeli Sandé, Prince Royce, Salva, Cipha Sounds, Ross One, Angie Martinez, Bebe Rexh, Mark E. Bassy, Lil Yachty, Kevin Garrett, Danielle Bradbery and Sir The Baptist are among the the other artists currently slated to perform.

The show will live stream on TIDAL, but will be available to non-subscribers.

The TIDAL pre-sale begins at 10 a.m. on Sept. 22 and tickets are available to the public on Sept. 26 at 10 a.m.

Hopefully there will be a lot more of this:
