Music As A Weapon For Change (Samples)

A group of young African artists came together to sing about saving the children of Africa. The song is so powerful and the beat is tight!



Here's another cool song, the price of silence, featuring Ziggy Marley, Emmanuel Jal & a bunch of other international artists. By the way Jal has been promoting his music and new movie based on his experience as a child soldier in Sudan. The movie is called Warchild. Saw a screening today in Harlem. It's a very touching film. I love the refreshing and optimistic tone at the end. He will be performing at the Apollo, I believe, on the 22nd of feb. I hope I can get to talk with him in person and take a picture or something. Besides the fact that dude is so inspiring and talented with his music (a fusion of soul, afrobeat & hip-pop) he is kinda cute too. :)
