With the month of October regarded internationally as Breast Cancer Awareness Month, reggae recording artistes Ras Slick and I-Octane are slated to perform on Sunday, October 12, at the ‘I Think Pink 365′ Breast Cancer Awareness Fundraiser in Washington DC. The event, organised by Crystal Clear Entertainment, is dedicated to survivors and others who have passed from the disease, which is said to affect one in eight women in the US.
Ras Slick, based in Maryland and Virginia, lauded the organisers for what he said was more than a worthy cause.
“I fully endorse this event, Breast Cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer and as artistes its our responsibility to not only entertain our fans but also help to keep them informed so I’m encouraging everyone to come out,” he said.
Tickets for the fundraiser-concert are US$25 with music by Prince Royal, Ricky Platinum, Sonic 71, and DJ Sniper alongside DJ Danny Fyah.
