India To Have “Hip-Hop Summit” In November

“Music4Peace Tour” will organize a “Hip-Hop Summit” in India in November, according to reports.

The “Music for Peace Tour Initiative” is a coalition of organizations and non-profits who have banded together to help bring “peace and harmony” to world. It is an attempt to bring social change “by uniting people through the universal language of music”, it is claimed.

David West, American professional basketball player; Dr. Arun Gandhi, Mahatma Gandhi’s grandson; Russell Simmons, media and fashion mogul; Dr. Benjamin Chavis, Jr, civil rights leader; Craig Nobles, SMI/SwaggMedia CEO; Baroness Kimberly Moore, entrepreneur and Goodwill Ambassador; LEBO, creative artist; are reportedly associated with it.

Indo-American statesman Rajan Zed, lauding efforts of the Initiative to unite the world through music, in a statement in Nevada (USA) today, urged musicians and philanthropists of the world to join hands to attempt to bring lasting peace to the world through music summits. Music could prove to be a big healer, Zed, who is chairperson of Indo-American Leadership Confederation, added.
