Mos Def has been added to the lineup for the Toronto Rock The Bells stop, and Common is no longer able to play because he's busy shooting a film.

Mos Def will fly in direct to Toronto from the Montreux Jazz Festival. The tour's Toronto stop takes place at the Molson Amphitheatre on Sunday and features performances from Nas, Damian Marley, Big Boi of OutKast, RZA, the reunited Slum Village, K'Naan and many more.

Tickets are still on sale through Ticketmaster, Live Nation and the Molson Amphitheatre box office. They'll run you $36, $46.50, $80.50 and $151, depending on where you want to sit.
