Jay-Z Starts His NFL Partnership With Meek Mill And Meghan Trainor Concert

Jay-Z’s new partnership with the NFL is groundbreaking, and the hip hop mogul is inspiring change with his first move: a free concert.

The NFL and Roc Nation have announced that, in support of the social justice platform Inspire Change, Meghan Trainor, Meek Mill, Rapsody, and DJ Pharris will be performing a free concert at Grant Park in Chicago on Thursday, September 5.

Proceeds from the concert are being donated to social justice organizations, and parts of the performances will be live streamed on NBC and NFL Network’s pregame coverage from 7:30 to 8:10 p.m. ET — before the first game of the season kicks off between the Chicago Bears and Green Bay Packers at Soldier Field.

Meghan, Meek, and Rapsody have been named the first Inspire Change Advocates in advance of the concert. Inspire Change will also sell apparel later this year.

We can’t wait for this!
