A number of legendary rappers will band together this Wednesday (October 17) to raise awareness about breast cancer. Dozens of rap veterans will return to Doug E’s Chicken and Waffles in Harlem New York, for the annual “Waiting For a Cure” event that is being put together by Kangol Kid of UTFO. “Waiting For a Cure” is part of a series of events being produced by the Mama Luke Foundation this month. The Mama Luke Foundation is a breast-cancer awareness organization founded by Kangol Kid and Minister Shaunda Lumpkin. Each year in October during Breast Cancer Awareness month, the Mama Luke Foundation hosts the “Waiting For a Cure” event where well-known rappers serve fans their meals. Last year, artists like Doug E. Fresh, Roxanne Shante, Rahiem (Grandmaster Flash & The Furious 5), LA Sunshine (Treacherous Three) and others took part in the event. This year’s “Waiting For a Cure” event will take place on October 17 at 5:00 PM.
