A$AP Rocky and Chance the Rapper Chosen to Headline Black Ball

Today it was announced that hip-hop superstars A$AP Rocky and Chance the Rapper are set to headline this year’s Black Ball, the annual concert held in NYC by charity organization Keep a Child Alive. Keep a Child Alive, founded in 2003 by current president Leigh Blake, provides quality care to families affected by HIV, especially children. For over a decade, the organization has managed to attract some of the industry’s top talent with the help of co-founder Alicia Keys, including David Bowie, Adele, and Justin Timberlake.

Both A$AP Rocky and Chance have been hard at work as of late, with the former having been confirmed to be working on his third studio album and the latter being in the middle of his Magnificent Coloring World Tour so it’s great to see them come together for a great cause. Along with them, the event will also feature sets from hip-hop trio Salt-n-Pepa and punk legend Patti Smith. This year’s Black Ball will take place on October 19th and you can get more information from their website.
