It was confirmed that two online raffles will take place, one for indie and rock releases, and another for jazz, groove and soul music.
Speaking about this raffle, Records For Palestine said: “Many artists have been involved in fundraising and raising awareness from the web to the stage. Records For Palestine provides another way for artists, labels, curators and music fans to pledge support, allowing us to raise funds, whilst also giving artists and labels a platform to stand in visible solidarity with Palestinians".
The draw for this raffle will take place on May 7, and all entries must have a valid UK postal address. The winners will be contacted via email.
This is not the first time that Kneecap have shown their support for Palestine.
Back in December, the Belfast rap group announced a collaboration with Irish soccer side, Bohemians, with the release of a new away kit, aimed at raising awareness to the "unbreakable bond" between the Irish and Palestinian people. It features both the Irish and Palestinian flags interwoven in the design.
It was confirmed that 30% of profits made from sales of this kit would go towards the ACLAÍ Palestine, a community gym located in the Lajee Centre in the Aida refugee camp in Bethlehem, West Bank Palestine. Proceeds which help to build a community must studio for artists in the camp to record and produce their own music.
"We are delighted to unveil this jersey following lots of work over the past few months with Kneecap and with ACLAÍ Palestine. The rise of the band, to now become a recognisable name across the world playing to sold out arenas and festival headliners, has been spectacular", Bohemians FC's CEO and Kneecap manager, Daniel Lambert said.
“Even more impressive is to see them continuously highlight and speak about Palestine to bigger and bigger crowds and be unrelenting in their moral convictions. To have also done this in the Irish language and whilst advocating for the rights of oppressed people across the world is an inspiration to so many people". More on this story here.
Back in January, Kneecap also announced that their new album, Fenian would arrive in April. More here.
