21 Savage Christmas Giveaway Earns Rapper Community Award

21 Savage has received a community impact award from the City of Atlanta following the fifth year of his Christmas giveaway in the city. Savage accepted his award in a ceremony attended by his manager and his mother. The award was presented by State Representative Billy Mitchell. Per HipHopDX, this year’s drive saw Savage’s foundation team up with the Wade Walker Park Family YCMA to provide some Christmas cheer. Savage himself was there to hand out gifts.

Despite having been born in the UK, Savage has firmly made himself a part of Atlanta. The run-up to Christmas also sees “21 Savage Day” on December 21. The event typically sees Savage perform in the city as the city honors him for his musical and cultural contributions. He recently returned to Atlanta after his first-ever European tour. The tour was made possible as 2023 marked the year that Savage finally got his green card, allowing him to legally leave the United States.

Of course, it’s been a big year for DaBaby. He proudly led the Colorado Buffaloes onto the field at Folsom Field ahead of their game against then-#8 USC. DaBaby had been invited to Boulder by Buffs head coach Deion Sanders a few weeks ago after the two traded pleasantries on social media. Sanders went as far as to jokingly offer the rapper a place on the team after seeing his skills while attending a Panthers game. After running with the team, DaBaby settled in the student section of Folsom Field.

As mentioned, DaBaby headed to Boulder after a social media exchange with coach Deion Sanders. It all began when DaBaby hit up Coach Prime while attendings the Panthers’ loss to the Saints with his kids. “PRIME WE NEED YOU IN CAROLINA AFTER YOU BRING THAT CHAMPIONSHIP TO COLORADO. Hit my line coach, let’s talk. @deionsanders.” Deion responded some time later, inviting the rapper up to Boulder. “Lolololol. I’m good here. I need u here my brother. And bring the babies. Prime loves the kids.” However, after video emerged of DaBaby showing of his skills, Sanders hit DaBaby once again. “Quick feet good release and u stacked the DB,” Sanders commented on the post. “We know you’re a Dogg so You got a offer to play At COLORADO. Let’s go Baby.”
