The two collaborated earlier this year on Emeli’s remix of ‘Next To Me. Watch their live performance below.

On Labor Day weekend, August 31-September 1, at the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, stars upon stars will descend on the City of Brotherly Love to perform with Beyonce headlining the concert weekend. Her sister Solange is also in the lineup, along with Miguel, Emeli Sande, Kendrick Lamar, Wiz Khalifa, A$AP Rocky, 2 Chainz, and other artists from other genres will show their love for the country during the patriotic weekend.

Last year, Jay-Z headlined the concert which was filmed by director Ron Howard for a documentary about Jay-Z’s rags to riches story and being “made in america.”  The doc is slated to be  released this summer. “We’re hoping it comes out this summer sometime right before the next Made in America festival,” Paul Chibe, vice president of U.S. marketing at Anheuser-Busch says. “It’s still in production and we continue to develop it. It’s an amazing narrative.”

That title pretty much says it all: it’s Sande pouring out her heart in front of a lone microphone (sans Kendrick Lamar, who appears on the recorded version of the US release), accompanied only by a piano for the stripped-down performance.

Those who’ve picked up Sande’s debut LP Our Version Of Events but not quite had their fill of the BRIT Award-winning singer can get another fix later this month, when her eight-song iTunes Session is made available for download on April 23. (Pre-order here.)

We’ve looked into it and we can’t seem to find any songs online that match the lyrics that Emeli was singing in ‘This Much is True’ so it appears to be a new song but we’re not 100% sure so if you know anything about it, please let us know!

The SL20 concert will take place at London’s O2 Arena on April 18, 2013. The tribute is expected to feature a number of big name acts with Sande, who has performed at the opening and closing ceremony of the Olympics, headlining the event. A memorial service will also be held at St Martin-in-the-Fields in central London on April 22, the exact day Lawrence was murdered in 1993.

A series of ‘SL20 Anniversary Events’ will take place in 2013, including the Stephen Lawrence Legacy Ball next autumn and a dinner hosted by Labour leader Ed Miliband. “Speaking at a launch event for the concert, Lawrence’s mother said: 2013 is a significant milestone for me personally and for the Trust. It’s a time for reflection but also for looking ahead.”

Stephen Lawrence was killed by a gang at a bus stop in Eltham, south-east London in April 1993. Gary Dobson and David Norris became the first people convicted over the killing in January this year.

Emeli Sande has had a hugely successful year in 2012 with her Olympic performances helping boost sales of her album ‘Our Version Of Events’ and making it iTunes most popular album of the year ahead of releases by Ed Sheeran, Adele and Lana Del Rey.
