The concert will raise money and toys for children in need. Tickets are on sale now; concert-goers are asked to bring an unwrapped toy to drop off while entering the venue.

Also scheduled to appear are jazz impresario Boney James with Dave Hollister, R&B singer Regina Belle, gospel duo Pam and Dodi and singer-actor-model Tyrese. The show will be hosted by comic Tommy Davidson.

The concert is part of an annual campaign by Los Angeles-area radio station KJLH, which has established drops for toy donations throughout the region.
