Rich the Kid is returning to the New York City neighborhood where he grew up to feed the needy for Thanksgiving.
The “Plug Walk” rapper was born in the Queens section of The Big Apple, where LL Cool J, Run-DMC, Nas, A Tribe Called Quest, 50 Cent and other hip hop stars began their careers. He’s partnering with the #HashtagLunchbag nonprofit mobile food mission to distribute free dinners on Saturday, according to HipHopDX. #HashtagLunchbag is celebrating their one millionth meal milestone.
Rich, who dropped the Trust Fund Babies mixtape with Lil Wayne in October, also spread good will earlier this month in Atlanta. He gifted 104 families at the Nicholas House homeless shelter with food, new Nike sneakers, and school supplies.
“I set up this giveback for the homeless shelter because I felt in need to give back in any way,” the 29-year-old MC told The Shade Room. “God had been blessing me so I’d like to give back to others in any way. This is only the beginning of what I would like to be doing. I’m thankful for Indigo & everyone who came to support.”
