The US rapper Nelly has flown to one of Iraq's most unstable regions to appear at a charity concert raising funds for those who have been displaced by Islamic State.
The singer performed some of his best-known hits to a crowd of thousands, including Dilemma, Hey Porsche and Just A Dream.
"I'm honoured that this country has basically paid attention to Nelly," the 40-year-old said.
"Everybody has been so gracious and the hospitality has been first class. How could you not want to come back to a place where everyone shows so much gratitude and they're happy to have you?"
The concert, which was arranged by the Rwanga Foundation, took place in Irbil, the capital of the autonomous region of Iraqi Kurdistan.
Last August, British nationals were advised to leave the city, as Islamic fighters advanced.
Taban Shoresh, a spokesman for the charity, said: "The event was here to celebrate the people of this city, promote peace, and a chance to raise money for the millions of people who have been affected by this ongoing conflict."
