Outside of Muslim-majority countries, many celebrities refrain from speaking about the ongoing war in Palestine and Sudan. However, these musical acts will soon perform at a concert to benefit the people affected by the devastation.
Earlier today (Thursday, 27th November 2025), Sudanese-Canadian rapper Mustafa, formerly known as Mustafa The Poet, announced the lineup for the upcoming Artists For Aid concert in Los Angeles. The concert will take place on 10th January 2026 (Saturday), from 6pm to 11pm (local time). All proceeds from this upcoming show will be donated equally to the Sudanese Americans Physicians Association and the Palestinian Children’s Relief Fund.
Besides Mustafa, the other stars performing at the benefit concert are Alex G, Blood Orange, Clairo, Daniel Ceaser, Faye Webster, Geese, Jazmine Sullivan, Lucy Dacus, Noname, Noor Hindi, Omar Apollo, Raphael Saadiq, Ravyn Lenae, Rex Orange County, Safia Elhillo, Shawn Mendes, Snoh Aalegra, Tamino, and 070 Shake. Model Bella Hadid and actor Pedro Pascal will also join as hosts.
This upcoming concert marks the third edition of the Artists For Aid concert. The first two were held in Newark, New Jersey and in London. Mustafa, Clairo and Daniel Caesar have also performed at the two previous concerts. Pre-sale information is available on the official website, while tickets will be available from next week onwards. However, there are no details on whether the show will be available for viewing online.
Nevertheless, the concert has received overwhelming support from netizens and fans. Many praised the performing stars and hosts Bella Hadid and Pedro Pascal for using their influence for something meaningful. Many also hope that Mustafa would host Artists for Aid concerts in other cities to continue bringing more awareness to the genocide and war happening in Palestine and Sudan.
If you are in Los Angeles during the concert, consider checking it out to support the cause. Visit artistsforaid.org for more information on the show and tickets.
