In 2012, KEM presented his third ‘Mack & Third’ event at Detroit’s Cass Park, which was headlined by Maze ft. Frankie Beverly. The event was attended by 55,000 fans, provided free, hot meals to 1,500 homeless men, women & children and collected in excess of 130,000 canned goods.
 
MACK & THIRD NEW LOCATION
KEM’s 2014 Mack & Third event has a new, larger location — The New Detroit Conservancy West RiverWalk Park at 1801 W. Jefferson, Detroit, MI 48216.
