Island Def Jam has teamed up with New Rochelle High School in New York to put on the annual New Roc Rhapsody fundraiser event.
Headlining the concert event will be Def Jam's own, Karina Pasian. The 17-year-old prodigy (and goddaughter of Quincy Jones) has already made a name for herself with the popular single, “16 @ War,” a song that tackles young women's issues in today's society. In addition to landing a successful hit, Pasian became the first Dominican to sing at the White House, and has been pre-nominated for six 2009 Grammy awards including Best Album and Best Performer.
Hosted by NY Comedy Club's Jamie Roberts, the fundraiser will help to support the high school's three-time championship football team, which, sadly, has suffered financial losses in the school budget.
"We are always happy to partner up with community events like New Roc Rhapsody, and to help out with causes that are meaningful," said Rich Westover, VP for Promotions at Island Def Jam Music Group.
The New Roc Rhapsody event will go down on December 12 at New Rochelle High School.
