Andrew Lloyd Webber, who composed famous musical 'Cats' will be returning for a 12-week run at the London Palladium with a little pinch of West Coast rap.

According to the Dailystar, Jay Z will give an urban spin to 'It's The Hard Knock Life' from Annie and composer Lloyd Webber revealed that 'Rum Tum Tugger', which will be played by Kanye West, will become a street cat doing hip-hop.

The 66-year-old composer promised a complete family entertainment and also took stand against the inflated price of seats.
