DJ Khaled is raising money for the late Nipsey Hussle's children, announcing Wednesday night that he's got a benefit single on the way.
"Recently, I embarked on a soul-searching journey down a road I never thought I would travel in a million years," Khaled wrote on Instagram. "It began when a tragedy robbed the world of an enlightened soul, a brother a father, a partner and my friend, Nipsey Hussle."

After much prayer and reflection; and with the full blessing of the Asghedom family, I am sharing that moment with you."

"It is in this spirit, of moving forward, of preserving his mission that I, my co-writers, producers and label partners are donating 100% of all our proceeds from 'Higher' to Nipsey's children, Emani and Kross," he added.
