Khalid will be lending a helping hand to his hometown of El Paso, Texas. After the devastating mass shooting on Saturday, Khalid pledged to put together a benefit concert the raise money to help families affected by the event.
On Monday, Khalid said, “Over the past few days, I’ve been thinking of ways to help out and support the city, I’m planning for a benefit concert later this month, all of the proceeds will go to the families affected by the shooting. Sending everyone my love and will keep you guys updated.” Khalid referenced the shooting at a concert in Washington D.C. on Saturday night.
Over the past few days, my mind and heart have been heavy. Hearing/seeing an act of terrorism happen so close to home, my family, and my friends has been unbelievable and shocking. Singing “915” and “city of El Paso” on tour every night feels indescribable
