City of Hope To Award Spirit Of Life Honor To Warner/Chappell Music Chairman/CEO Jon Platt

Jon Platt

SHAWN “JAY-Z” CARTER will present the SPIRIT OF LIFE award to WARNER/CHAPPELL MUSIC Chairman/CEO JON PLATT at the CITY OF HOPE GALA, to be held OCT. 11th in L.A. The event, hosted by PHARRELL WILLIAMS, supports the nonprofit clinical research and treatment center for cancer, diabetes and other life-threatening diseases. 

“It’s no secret that I don’t like being the center of attention," PLATT said. "That’s for the songwriters, but when I accept the SPIRIT OF LIFE award this fall, I can’t think of anyone else I’d rather have presenting it to me. JAY is unquestionably one of the most giving and genuine people I know, not to mention one of the greatest songwriters on the planet. I feel lucky to call him my brother. OCTOBER 11th is going to be a really special, unforgettable night.”
