Latest hiphop donations... Eminem recently joined the impressive list of charitable celebrities by donating $200,000 to victims of Hurricane Katrina.
Slim reportedly was touched by MTV's telethon this past Saturday and called Mississippi emcee, David Banner, to donate $200,000. The Detroit lyricist then donated the money to the American Red Cross on behalf of his record label, Shady Records. Em hasn't been the only one digging in his wallet to support Hurricane Katrina victims. Last week, Shawn "Jay-Z" Carter and Sean "Diddy" Combs joined forces to donate $1 million to the American Red Cross. Elsewhere, T.I. helped raise $263,000 for Hurricane Katrina relief when he appeared on air at Atlanta's V 103 FM for over seven hours last week. Meanwhile, Fat Joe and DJ Khaled hosted The Takeover on Miami's 99 Jamz in hope to raise money for hurricane victims. Various hip-hop artists and black celebrities, from New Orleans natives Master P, Juvenile, Lil Wayne to actor/rapper Queen Latifah and Steve Harvey, came together this past Friday during the BET SOS Telethon to raise more than $10 million for the Red Cross. www.Sohh.com | |
