We Are The World 25 Years for Haiti

25 years ago Quincy Jones produced "We Are The World" as a charity song for Africa. Yesterday about 100 singers hit the Jim Henson studios in L.A. to re-record the track for Haiti. Quincy Jones is back on production, and recruited Lionel Richie to help him. The 2010 version is called "We Are The World 25 Years for Haiti".
Celebs like Kanye West, Lil Wayne, Wyclef, Jennifer Hudson, Gladys Knight, Akon, Snoop, Pink, Mya, Brandy, Robin Thicke, Tyrese, Trey Songz, Jamie Foxx, Toni Braxton, Kid Cudi, LL, Usher, Keri Hilson, Joel and Benji Madden and many others are all contributing to the track. It'll be interested to see how this is pulled off with such a wide range of voices.

  1. I'm not sure how will can possibly sound good with so many voices. But yet, anything for Haiti.
