An Atlanta benefit concert to help the victims of Hurricane Harvey features a lineup that will appeal to lovers of hip-hop and R&B — especially of the 90s/early 2000s variety.
Artists scheduled for the event include Kelly Price, Slick Rick, Trina, Case, 112, Major., LeAndria Johnson, Pastor Troy, Mia X, Donell Jones, Raheem DeVaughn and the Cross Rhodes and Gritz & Jelly Butter.
Atlanta’s radio host Ed Lover and actress Eva Marcille will host the event at City Winery.
"Many more" acts will be announced, according to the website. The event page says 100 percent of the proceeds from the ticket sales and silent auction will go directly to Jim McIngvale and two Houston families "who have lost everything."
McIngvale, better known as Mattress Mack, is a Houston businessman and philanthropist who opened a couple of his stores to anyone in need after the hurricane.
Tickets to the Sept. 20 show, which is standing general admission, cost $55. Doors open at 6 p.m.; the show starts two hours later.
Multiple bars will be set up in the Ponce City Market venue. City Winery and TriFectHer Entertainment partnered for the event.
