Jaden Smith received lots of love for his 21st birthday, and so did Los Angeles’ homeless community.

On Monday, the rapper and actor announced to millions of social media followers that he opened a pop-up food truck called the I Love You Restaurant, which serves health-conscious meals free to homeless people downtown.

We are the I Love You Restaurant and we hope to see you soon Jaden Smith

“The @ILoveYouRestaurant is a movement that is all about giving people what they deserve, healthy, vegan food for free,” Smith wrote in his post. “Today we launched our first one day food truck pop-up in Downtown LA. Keep a look out because this is the first of many.”

The artist also posted videos of some of the restaurant’s first guests lining up the street for ready-made food packages.

“We are the I Love You Restaurant and we hope to see you soon,” Smith, who is the son of actors Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith, captioned one of the clips.

Launch of the I Love You Restaurant comes days after Smith released his latest album, “ERYS”, on July 4. Tyler, the Creator; ASAP Rocky; Kid Cudi; Trinidad James; and Smith’s sister, Willow, all collaborated on the various tracks.

Smith will be an opening act for Tyler, the Creator on his “Igor” tour, which will stop in Miami, Houston, New York and Atlanta.
