bbno$ Is Throwing 'The Internet For Palestine' Benefit Concert in Los Angeles with Smosh, Mxmtoon and More
"It’s the duty of an artist to use their voice to stand up for the oppressed," he writes on Instagram. "It is a privilege to come together with so many talented people to raise money for the children of Palestine."
The Billboard Canada cover star will be joined by viral internet-friendly artists 6arelyHuman, Ellise, Joost, Mxmtoon, RomancePlanet, Ricky Montgomery, Scene Queen and Smosh. Sophie Powers — who performed a captivating headline show at this year's NXNE — joins bbno$ as the Canadian acts in the initial announcement.

According to bbno$, the show will include “special guests,” and more artists will be added to the lineup in the coming weeks. All proceeds from the event will be donated to The Palestine Children’s Relief Fund. Tickets go on sale tomorrow, Oct. 2.
The announcement comes two weeks after the artist put out a call to action on social media for "a massive charity concert” to raise money for Palestine.
“WHO WANNA LOCK IN ?!?,” he captioned his post. “Calling all my artist friends to stand on business and raise some money 🍉.”
The post came after bbno$ showed support for Macklemore after it was announced that the U.S. rapper was fired from Ed Sheeran’s tour because of the “Free Palestine” comments made during his opening set. Macklemore posted that he donated $1 million in his earnings from Sheeran’s tour to Palestinian aid, and bbno$ commented: “standing on business !!!!!! ❤️"
Macklemore announced his own Free Palestine benefit concerts, which reportedly sold out immediately.
