Trinidad James, Nipsey Hussle, Wiz Khalifa, Safaree & More Give Back To The Crenshaw Community

Despite the recent negative events that has happened in hip hop recently.  It is nice to share a story of hip hop artist doing something good for the community which happens far more than people may believe.  

Trinidad James gives back to the community as he hosted his second annual Camp James Celebrity Basketball Game as well as the Crenshaw Rams Football Camp founded by Big U at Crenshaw High School.  The Atlanta native was able to collect thousands of donated new and used shoes in a sneaker drive that will benefit families in need.  Celebrities in attendance included Wiz Khalifa, Nipsey Hussle, Three 6 Mafia’s DJ Paul, Mally Mall, Ray J and more, as well as celebrity basketball players Problem and Safaree, and team coaches Steve Lobel and Community Activist Big U. L.A.’s REAL 92.3 DJ Hed along with DJ Looney kept the crowd grooving with today’s hottest music.



In addition to the celebrity basketball game and sneaker drive, over 100 gift bags were given to the youth in attendance, including pairs of Jordan’s and goodies from sponsors Shoe Palace, Jason Mark, Under Armour, Feed the Homeless LA and Ray J’s Skoot-E Bike. 

“It feels amazing to be able to do it again. I can be honest and tell you it's not as easy the second time as I thought it would be, but I'm very thankful to the people who continue to help me this year again like Crenshaw's Big U, Michael Henley (Lil U) and their entire family, Echo Hattix’s PR team, Shoe Palace Sneakers and Jason Markk shoe cleaner,” says James. “Last but not least, I’m very thankful to the Crenshaw community. Nothing would matter without their presence.”
