Chicago house music legend Farley "Jackmaster" Funk will do more than celebrate his 55th birthday today. He also plans on giving back to his community.The birthday celebrations will kick off tonight at a curious spot, Chicago State University, starting at 8pm. Ramonski Love, a DJ from local radio station V103, will also be in attendance.According to an announcement yesterday for the event, 25% of the proceeds from tonight's birthday party will be donated to Chicago State University's music department. The university recently announced a new music major, Commercial Music and Technology, which also reportedly piqued the DJ's interest.The university has faced scrutiny in recent years for budget shortfalls, mismanagement, and accreditation issues.Tickets for the event may be purchased here. In 2015, we spoke to Farley "Jackmaster" Funk about bringing house music to the UK.
