Quincy Jones To Remake “We Are The World”
Thursday, January 21 2010 9:57 AM EST | Posted by: B.Dot | Posted in: Blog, Newsstand StanAccording to Billboard, Quincy Jones and Lionel Richie are revamping the global anthem, “We Are The World”. The record was recorded 25 years ago in support of Africa relief. Coincidentally, the rehash comes in the wake of last week’s earthquake in Haiti. The tandem are recruiting talent from Grammy weekend to participate. So far, invited guests include Usher, Natalie Cole, and John Legend. Surely, more to come.





Man, miss me with the fake Jay and B quotes already. Headlines. Some of you sites will do anything for attention and traffic. You really believed B would speak to Star magazine? Tuck your tabloid in. And why would Hov need to write a letter to his daughter? Bitch please. He wrote a song! It's called "Glory" and it's pretty fuckin' revealing. He went on the record (double entendre) but you still don't get it. You may hear baby Blue's first cries but no you don't know her height, weight or what she looks like. And no you ain't gettin' a flick, fool. Can new parents get some privacy? Even if they are celebrities. Sheesh! Who raised you animals? Party at the 40/40. Paps outside. Rushin' the velvet rope. Don't trip over your integrity.
Put us here if you like. The RR store stays open 24/7. SOPA? Yeah we Showcase Our Product Always. And we're gonna continue straight ahead til somebody up there turns out the lights. Start from scratch? I'm not afraid.
it better not be bullshit..that song had to be 1 of the top 10 songs of all time (kanye voice lol)

SHOW SOME RESPECT FOR MJ, AND WRITE A NEW SONG FOR TODAY. STOP GOING BACKWARDS K.I.M. FORWARD

lionel richie HA
Personally, I think they should just re-release it as is! It is a great song. Was, back in 1985; still is, 25 years later, here in 2010.
If Quincy wants to do a new version, I hope he’ll keep Michael’s vocal track still on it…
It’s HIS song, after all… Don’t disrespect the creator.

Wow are we forgetting why they are doing this? Fuck who they put on it!! Fuck if they are all rappers or not!! This is for people hurting in the world and if Drake can put a rhyme out there that can make bitches buy the track for the picture or if Eminem can get all these wannabe Slim Shady’s to man up or if Jay-Z is the rapper that the whole world adores and wants on this song… then let it fucken be!!! I respect all the artists who are willing to put out a couple of bars for all the pain in the world… MJ did his part and made a difference, we need to start looking for others to help and do their part as well.
