Concert for Jena 6
by Dean


Recording artists Nick Cannon, Lloyd, Baby Boy, Sean P, Twista, Tank, Jagged Edge, Killer Mike, Bobby Brown, DTP's Small World and Hurricane Chris are booked to perform at a Jena 6 Empowerment Concert, to be held Sept. 29 in Birmingham, Ala.

Organizers are hoping the event will raise national awareness of the incidents surrounding the case, in which six black teens appear to be victims of a racially biased judicial system.

"What's happening to the Jena 6 is not an isolated incident -- it could happen to any of us," Baby Boy tells the Hollywood Reporter. "We are asking men of all persuasions to stand on the front line with our young people and send a message demanding accountability of law enforcement officials and the judicial system.

In conjunction with the concert, Cannon and Danity Kane's Aubrey will host a Sept. 28 peace rally at Birmingham's Parker High School.
