Pusha T stopped to make a big change for a 6-year old boy & his family when he invested in the kids future and started a paid scholarship so he can eventually attend college after a video of the 6-year pleading to stop gun violence went viral.
The G.O.O.D. Music president and rapper was moved by Jeffrey “Lil J” Laney Facebook video so much that he reached out and started a college fund for Lil J.
“I saw your video and I’m really sorry that you are having to deal with people shooting guns and hurting others where you live,” Pusha wrote to Lil J. “A lot of people can’t imagine how hard it is being a kid where you are from, If I were you, I would be scared too. But I thought it was very brave of you to speak up and try to help your family, friends, and community.”
In addition, Pusha also penned a heartfelt letter to Lil J and scheduled an upcoming trip to Six Flags Great America for him & his family. He also sent an iPad, games, books, and more to his house as a gift as well. This was a very admirable thing to see and more rappers should follow Pusha T's footsteps, step up and take care of their community and the people who are making a change.
