Singer. Songwriter. Superhero. Babyface donates musical instruments to Indianapolis school
Kenny “Babyface” Edmonds has a knack for making audiences feel super with his performances.
The Indianapolis native wants to pass that on to another generation of musicians here.
The singer-songwriter-producer posted to his Instagram account his Thursday visit to Carl Wilde School on the west side.
He came bearing gifts.
The holder of 13 Grammys is shown unveiling a donation of musical instruments and speaking to students at the public school.
He tells the audience, "When you’re doing music, it’s like you become a superhero. It’s like nothing else matters."
The students and staff choir performed for Edmonds, who is in Indianapolis for NBA All-Star Weekend. He will perform "The Star-Spangled Banner" at the All-Star game on Feb. 18.
