Grammy winning rapper Lupe Fiasco has helped provide warmth for hundreds of children this winter by giving away coats in Illinois.
According to ABC’s WLS, the Chicago-bred emcee donated $5,000 to purchase the clothing items for kids throughout his native hometown. Lupe reportedly said he wanted to give back to deserving families in Chi-town.
Along with the initial coats, the “Superstar” rapper is expected to be on-hand to help pass out more coats throughout the West Side area where he was raised later today (December 29).
