"This concert was about coming back to the neighborhood and giving back to the community, to the people who inspired me and continue to inspire others," Lopez said in a statement.

"The people in our neighborhoods and hometowns have a profound impact on who we become and often make a fundamental difference in our lives," added State Farm Chief Marketing Officer Rand Harbert. "Our goal is to tell their stories, through the lens of amazing musical artists, in a way that inspires all of us... like a good neighbor should. We're thrilled to be launching the series in partnership with Turner, giving national exposure to these neighborhoods and the people who make them great."
