Nelly managed to make a little history and support the troops battling ISIS on Friday.
The St. Louis rapper who shot to fame back in 2000 with his debut album Country Grammar put on a surprise concert for Kurdish fighters battling ISIS in the city of Erbil in Iraq.
It was all part of a charity concert put on by the Rwanga Foundation, a non-profit created to help those in the area, and in a press release the group claims that Nelly is now 'the first American artist to perform in the city’s 8,000 year old history.'
The concert was organized to 'promote peace and bring hope to those who need it most' while also raising money for 'those impacted by the recent conflict in the area.'
It also helped provide funds to the Kurdish military forces fighting ISIS.
