Hip-Hop star Rick Ross will be politically active on election day (November 4), as the headlining performer during the Give Back Concert Benefit.
Ross has teamed with Kanye West and The Dr. Donda West Foundation and the Live to Give Campaign in support of the concert, which benefits The Dr. Donda West Foundation, formerly known as The Kanye West Foundation.
The concert, which takes place at Ibiza in Washington, D.C., will feature election night coverage and a number of surprise guests, with Ross being the first celebrity confirmed.
Sources told AllHipHop.com that Kanye West will be overseas touring on election night, but attendees will be able to view an exclusive video tribute he taped, for private viewing only.
The Dr. Donda West Foundation's Give Back Concert Benefit kicks off with a meet and greet with Washington Wizards' Antawn Jamison, but the offer is only valid for pre-sale ticket purchasers.
Another performer is scheduled to be announced on October 20. General admission to the Give Back Benefit is $85.00 with all proceeds going to the Dr. Donda West Foundation, Rick Ross Charities, and the Antawn Jamison Foundation.
