Throughout August, ‘50 & Forever’ continues to host all new episodes of Rotation Roundtable, Group Thread, and Breakthrough Live
Yesterday, multi-platinum selling, Grammy nominated artist Jeezy hit the stage for a special performance for Amazon Music’s “50 & Forever” special-edition City Sessions livestream from Tabernacle in Atlanta. Fans attend the performance in-person and watched the show live on Amazon Music’s Twitch channel.
All proceeds were donated to Jeezy’s Street Dreamz Foundation, a non-profit organization that encourages a generation of at-risk youth to become effective leaders through programs that foster independence and respect for others.
Amazon Music will close out its “50 & Forever” City Sessions series at the Rooftop at Pier 17 on August 10.
