Luda Gives 20 Cars Away to Needy ATLiens
I’m sure that if Luda had stolen or wrecked his own car, the story would have been all over the news. So why has the story about him giving 20 cars away to needy Atlanta residents flown under the radar?
Through his Ludacris Foundation, Chris partnered with a local dealership and gave away vehicles and free gas for 30 days to 20 people that wrote inspiring essays about their struggles to keep their jobs without reliable wheels.
It’s great to see Luda give back to the community since rappers are constantly criticized for what they do with their money.
I wonder if the winners will feel obligated to yell “MOVE B!#&H, GET OUT THE WAY!” while sitting in the awful Atlanta traffic???
