The three singers, together with Marsha Ambrosious, Estelle, Musiq Soulchild and Miguel, are set to grace the stage at “UNCF An Evening of Stars,” which helps raise money for the United Negro College Fund. The program has raised more than $200 million to help students with scholarships.

The show takes place August 14th in Pasadena, Calif., and tickets go on sale today.
