The rappers will join Asher Roth, Ray J, Nelly and Flo Rida, among others at the third annual Think Pink Rocks Concert on 9 October.

The mini-festival will benefit the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York City, the Boca Raton Community Hospital Women's Center for Breast Care, and other breast cancer research charities.

Think Pink Rocks was founded by mum-of-two Stephanie Robin, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2004 and underwent a double mastectomy, a total hysterectomy and months of chemotherapy.

The cancer returned to her lungs and she is currently in stage 4 of the disease, but is receiving monthly treatment at Memorial Sloan-Kettering and the tumours have decreased in size by 90 per cent.
