Approximately 100 celebrity singers descended upon Henson Recording Studios on February 1st in Los Angeles, to record an updated version of the historic single, “We Are The World.”
Quincy Jones and Lionel Richie, who wrote the original version along with the late Michael Jackson, are producing the latest track, with an all new cast of singers.
Rappers Wyclef Jean and Eminem are among the artists who will participate on the single.
All proceeds from the new version of the song will be donated to the relief effort underway to rebuild Haiti, much of which was destroyed by a 7.0 earthquake on January 12.

@Unique019 no shango24 is worse that that…he comes to posts and talks about how bad America is and that Africa is better and how we are all condemned to hell because most of us are as he calls it “half-breeds” Don’t let his ignorant a** comments get to you. I just pretend that he doesn’t exist.
shango24, let me guess you are some lil wayne/kanye west dick sucker that runs to the store when one off their wack ass albums come out but when real artist want to make a song thats for a real cause….not some commercial s**t like Wayne or some jump on the stage and throw hissy fit kanye, u dont want to support it. Wow, dumb ass

Never cared much for the song, but love the sentiment…….the artists are fine (Jhud would outsang Beyonce anytime)…wished Micheal was there for this event, but I know he’s smiling now……
Wow I remember the original We are the World video and song! I think the concept is nice.I’m wondering how the rappers will fit into the song.That will be interesting .Then again music has changed and there are a lot more singer/rapper collabo’s now than there were in the past!I assume all proceeds of song will go to Haiti!
Beautiful!
NUFF SAID WYCLEF! NUFF SAID!
WOW…J HUD TOO WHOOOOO! This is going to be AMAZING I wish MJ was here to see the love! It warms my heart and brings tears to my eyes. MJ your kind loving and giving spirit will LIVE ON through the power of SONG! Music is TRULY the 8th Wonder.
It’s just so sad that Michael Jackson could not be there! And what’s even worse that there was a cause to do it at all!!!
Thank God for all the people that are supporting Haiti genuinely.
