Alicia Keys has personally invited Missouri shooting victim Ralph Yarl to her Kansas City concert in July, and he will have a one-on-one with the singer.
Ralph Yarl was shot twice last month after going to the wrong home to pick up his younger brothers. While he’s expected to make a full recovery, Yarl is still currently hospitalized recovering from his injuries. As he recovers, TMZ reports that Yarl received a personal invite from Alicia Keys to attend her upcoming show in Kansas City, Missouri this July, and will have a one-on-one with her prior to the show.

Yarl’s family attorney Lee Meritt said the Grammy award winner contacted him, and also received support from ROC Nation, who said if Yarl needed assistance, to contact them immediately. It was reported that Yarl’s mom has also been in touch with Ahmaud Arbery’s mom.
The outpouring of support comes as Yarl’s GoFundMe page has continued to rake in dozens of donations, surpassing nearly $3.5 million as of Monday morning.
Alicia’s stop in Kansas City will be part of her sprawling 23-date Keys To The Summer North American Tour, which kicks off on June 28 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
Per a press release, the tour will feature the singer in a 360-degree production setup “which will allow fans to experience her live performance in an entirely new and exhilarating way.”
