East Atlanta isn’t the only place getting a love letter from 6LACK.

In dope news of the day, the Atlanta entertainer partnered up with the Drop4drop organization to bring smiles and fresh clean water to a community in Uganda. In an Instagram post he shared, “I appreciate music for changing my life, but I love it even more for being the vehicle to do more in the world.”

6LACK is no stranger to giving back either.

Last year, he donated $10,000 to the “Music Cares Foundation” to help other up and coming artists who may be struggling on their brink of success.

In the post he continued, “The best part about finding success, is having the ability to do things that seemed so farfetched as a kid.”

We love to see Hip Hop giving back!
