This is only one of the “Sicko Mode” rapper’s significant philanthropic efforts this year. theGrio reported Travis Scott launched a scholarship for students at Historically Black Colleges and Universities to help with the cost of tuition.

His parents both attended HBCUs, with his mother attending Louisiana Grambling State University and his father attending Prairie View A&M in Texas.

He officially launched the Waymon Webster Scholarship, named for his grandfather.

Waymon Webster was a Dean of the Prairie View A&M graduate school. My grandfather wanted me to take it all the way through college, I feel there is a power in education so to be able to give someone the opportunity to fulfill that dream as my papa thought for me is amazing,” Scott shared on his site.

The five scholarship recipients were officially announced on the Cactus Jack Foundation website last month. The students shared videos thanking Scott for the donation, how the scholarship attributed to their goals, and the importance of HBCUs.

Dallyn, one of the winners, a student of Prairie View A&M, said, “the fact that I was accepted for your scholarship shows that you recognize there is a gap and that you’re doing what you can to minimize that gap. That means so much to me.”

The other recipients are Taylor of Howard University, Nasire of Morehouse College, Bryant of Texas Southern University, and Destiney of Grambling State University. Their individual videos can be viewed here.
