Thanks for the heads up B.dot. Aight. I’m clicking play.
The fuckery. Good thing MJ is dead now. He won’t be able to see this fuckery.
they should left this alone….somethings u just cant remake
auto tune really hahahah somethings u just cant remake
are they serious with the autotune? and wycelf..dude u can’t sing
Damn. I’m crying. It’s not very good. Nope. Not at all. The rap part sounded like a bad auto-tune glitch. Then Wyclef went in. Nope. Not good, Not at all.
Its so hard to bash a song like this. Should have left this song alone. Should did a whole nother song.
Did anybody else find all the expensive looking clothing and other accessories taking away from the message of this song, which is unite and financialy support Haiti? I bet that if everyone of those people donted the amount of money that their outfit cost, idk where I’m going with this but it just really seemed like an opportunity to show your celebrtiy versus making a difference in a tragic issue
Who the fuck are these people?
JAY-Z BONO RIHANNA WON THIS IS TERRIBLE
wyclef fucked the song up tryna sing…….stick to producing……
I can’t believe they let Wyclef sing like that!
so glad eminem and jay-z were not apart of this fuckery.
really…you take a CLASSIC song and you put vocalists on there who use “auto-tune”
DOWNGRADE.
Wyclef, I know you’re from Haiti and all, but damn dude. you were terrible.
Wow, negativity is so contagious…quit trying to compare people! Of course it doesn’t stand next to the original, but it stands on its on. The fact that it was done should be the focus not every meticulous difference. How about the haters get together and do a remake, because that’s what the WORLD is being consumed with anyway!
This shit was horrible. Point. Blank. Period. No matter how you try to slice it. It was wack.
this version sucks, big time. Never f@*k with a classic. Thank God!!! MJ isn’t around hear this weak S*#t. Matter of fact he might be rolling over in his grave over this.
Why do we have to fuck up evrything
wow that was rough
wyclef, please do me a favor? Stop singing. Your killing me.
I wanted to give this a chance because it could’ve been done
right, but now forget it.
Pls tell me Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
Let me be the first one to say I LIKED IT….yes it doesn’t compare to the original, but for the cause that it is needed right now, I thought it was good. so count me in the like section…now back to the hateration………….
I did get it off of itunes, so i could help with the haiti thing, but damn this just sucks. I’m sorry, I have to be honest. The truth shall set you free!
SHITS LIKE SOULAH BOY TRYIN RAP OVER ILLMATIC BEATS.
DON’T FUCK WITH A CLASSIC.
Ouch…That’s scary the so called “best” of the industry came together and this was the result smh that’s why people invent don’t try to reinvent especially with a classic what’s next remaking Thriller?
WTF IS WRONG WITH WYFLEF??? NIGGA SOUND LYK HE GETTIN FUKED UP TH ASS… SMH, THESE MOTHER FUCKERS NEED WRITE AN APOLOGY TO MJ IN THE DISCLAIMER CUS I NO HE TURNIN IN THAT GOLDEN COFFIN.
yea cosign im glad jay and eminem reports were rumors and false this shit suks so bad autotune really really really lol cmon now do u think u can use autotune in singing competitions like american idol lol
well, good thing eminem is not on it!!!i actually knew it was going to be one of the worst songs of the decade!!!
Damn shame
that was fuckin hilarious
LMFAO! Simon Cowells compilation of artists for “Everybody hurts” just put them to SHAME!
in wyclef’s defense…he’s haitian. he sings like a haitian. they don’t croon, they belt. ever heard muslim’s in the east sing prayers? its just as…if not even MORE….well, different. and don’t get me started on monks….whew.
personally i thought Jamie Foxx resurrecting Ray Charles and doing an impression of his singing voice in the middle of the fucking song was the fail of the song.
second being the rap part. (nipsey hussle wasn’t even participating, lol). that shit reminded me of the Planeteer rap in the Captain Planet song. and who was mixing up those kanye snippets like that?
the whole shit was just all over the place. oh well, such is life.

song waz going good unitl LIL WAYNE started the autotune bullshit…..then it went downhill real fast
Damn near everything about this remake is wrong! I hope Quincy wasn’t in the room when they put that autotune on… Michael must be moonwalkin with pain in his grave right now.
SMH!!!!
^
Oh he was there, him and Lionel were right there! lol
Oh. My. God.
Thank god jay and eminem didn’t participate in this fuckery.
It honestly wasn’t that bad.
Jamie Fox really needs to learn when it is appropriate to make a mockery & when it is not.
If not for the rap part, it would be fine. Autotune? And were them niggas tryin’ to get crunk in that fuckin’ rap chorale? The hearts were in the right place, but you can’t just throw Hip-Hop on EVERYTHING. The shit just didn’t fit.
so disappointed in this. maybe if i didnt have to compare it to the original it would be better. they should have left the rappers off. the rappers could have done their own tribute.
If it was closer to the original, you lames would sit there and say “it’s too 80’s”. Shut the fuck up and take what they give you when it’s for charity.
Thing is, the only thing that outright RUINED it was the hip hop part. We werent represented well.
lol@ nipsey husstle tweeting how he was in the studio writing his verse for this shit
yet throughout the whole thing he’s just standing in the back.. by far the worst song ever made.
**DEAD @ BK COMMENT** SMH HE JUST TRYING TO SING IN CREOLE MAN BUT THAT SHIT HAD ME CRACKING UP LOLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
OK TO BE HONEST IT WASN’T AS BAD AS I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE AND I’M NOT GONNA BASH IT CAUSE IT’S ALL DONE FOR A GOOD CAUSE BUT I WILL SAY THIS WILL NOT FUCK WITH THE ORIGINAL AND ITS NOT THE SAME WITHOUT MJ R.I.P. I CAN SEE WHY EM AND JAY DIDN’T WANNA MESS WITH IT THE RAPPING PART WAS KIND CORNY SMH
ON A SIDE NOTE GREAT TO SEE MY SQUADRON HM-14 OUT OF NORFOLK, VA UP IN THE VIDEO HELPING OUT THEY CAN BE SEEN AT 2:32
horriblee…
OMG Wyclef you got to be kidding. No wonder his mansion was foreclosed on. He CAN”T sing. What they need to rescue this country is look for the money the Baby Doc Duvalier stole from the Haitian people. Wyclef fucked up this song.
@ BK
Yo fo’ real homie, u had me dying LMAO w/ ur comment…and i’m a zoe (haitian).
Man auto-tune thats why jayz wasnt there . .
Why didn’t they start the song with the little kid singing in the beginning and michael jackson super-imposed right next to him. Michael would have been the first one flying to Haiti to look for a little Webster
I don’t know where to begin. All the n^ggas that can’t sing got autotune on them. Justin Beiber (sp?), really? I don’t think he earned the right to be there yet. Then Fergie yelling trying to have an MJ “Just look over you shoulders honey” moment. Jamie doing Ray Charles. WHY??? Josh Groban sleepy a$$ voice. Miley Cyrus chipmunka$$ voice. Then you got Enrique trying to sing panties off. And out of all the rappers there, LL leading the rap??? Wyclef goose/turkey/chicken virbrato. At about 4:35, Busta gesticulating like he’s a singer.
Now let’s look at the positives. Ke$ha wasn’t there. Lil’ Wayne did not handle guitar solo duties. No cameo of Beats by Dre headphones. And the video had a pretty mean shot of a jeepney cruising down the streets.
I’ll donate once more but not because of this song.
Rich ppl askin us for money??? wtf ha!. i already donated my 10$ dem fuckers got money up da ass. fuck u, u donated money.
I was NOT a complete disaster…
The BAD parts: wayne, autotune, wyclefs singing, nipsey hussle being there, corny rap, fergie being allowed to harmonize with a legend like Celine Dion, etc.
BUT
They accomplished what the original did- Get EVERY genre represented.
From: Josh Groban & Celine Dion – a Jonas Brother & Miley Cyrus – Pink & Isaac Slade – Barbra Streisand & Tony Bennett – LL Cool J & Snoop – Mary Mary (gospel duo) – Jennifer Hudson & Jamie Foxx – Mary J Blige & Usher – Adam Levine & Nicole Scherzinger…..
They got the whole freaking music world on that.
YA’LL are RIGHT… They shouldn’t have re-did this… but it wasn’t too bad.
50 and ja should be singin that shit
Its true man n i bet no1 had the heart 2 cut wyclef out th damn song cus its for charity. Either that or they figured this ships sinkin anyway jus fuk it.
Dazzled 4 real…atleast my man YE spit a verse on that one!! But its so hard to remake some stuff, especially classics!its not as great as the original but…they tried!
PS: where HOV @? where Em @?
@Guegz
Jay is Anti Autotune he swizz rhianna and Bono did they part
Em probably would just write a Checc rather than rap that shit he’ll rap rocc the bellz but not no 2010 LL LOL
this shit is horrendous Nipsey is just standing in the baccground LOL Cuz kept it hood he threw up 60’s in the We Are the World Video dont get more hood than that he stay repping his H60d
no disrespect but for it to be a tragedy them motherfuccer over they at Haiti Love that damn camera damn near every shot is them smiling talking bout people crying you couldnt tell by them shots
MJ is rollin’ over in his grave!!!

and i dnt think it was horrible jus verrrrrrryyy corny…and cheesy
and even wayne singing wit autotune wasnt bad. compared to that wack ass rap posse cut wateverthefuck it was….that shit was doo doo
plus wyclef was the best one, fuck yall smoking
where the fuck are the 2 greatest rapppers ever???!
This is terrible man real talk..just a fail big time..take them rappers out that shit quick! lol
SO THEY MAKE A “WE ARE THE WORLD” FOR A 3rd world country, BUT DONT MAKE IT FOR NYC WHEN 9/11 HAPPENED??? ACTUALLY IM GLAD THEY DIDN’T BECAUSE THIS WAS ATROCIOUS…
[…] New Video: “We Are The World” (25 For Haiti) Worse than I even imagined. SMH. YK2 Update: Ain’t fuckin’ with this! […]
[…] witnessed the madness, now let’s see if just focusing on the music makes it better. Nope, still sucks. Clap for […]
if every one of them at least give half a million from all those millions they have to haiti…. they wouldnt have fucked it up like this…. but they give sumthin like 5 thou or 10 thou… look at schumacher the european racer from formule 1 not that nascar bullshit from america who gave with his borther also a racer… cumthin like 10 million when that wave hit asia few years ago… those people are heroes and really give a damn… not like these guys who are full and then ask people to buy it for haiti… fuckin hypocrites man
CoonTV at its finest, MJ rolling in his box smdh
ah stfu people. everything has changed, its far from like the original but this is a new era and will never be like it was. ye i agree some parts sounded ef’d up but the auto-tune for example is a part of a growing trend and i’m glad t-pain could have even done his part. kanye did a nice part also and wayne did him. they stuck to the script while adding there individual flare. I’m happy to see so many people unite and not shocked too see so many hate.
everybody always compares something to something that was done years ago, can and will never be the same.
[…] witnessed the madness, now let’s see if just focusing on the music makes it better. Nope, still sucks. Clap for […]
this what happens when u throw half the music industry on 1 track fuckin thorw some rappers in make them sing n hit the autotune AND U HAVE A FUCKING DISASTER
I actually agree with TopBananas and I.S.A.A.C. But the view from up here on this fence is GREAT!
Nah, but seriously having Justin Bieber lead this off was not a good sign and the amount of non-singing ass muh’f-ckers who had to be autotuned is a sad commentary of what constitutes talent in today’s music industry but despite all that, I think it actually sounds fine. It could never compare to the original and it shouldn’t be compared to it. All that being said, they did some cool things – keeping Michael’s part was great and I think the rap part was apropos for this type of record – what were y’all expecting” Jay Electronica or Joell Ortiz ripping a hot 16??
Frankly though, if we’re gonna keep it all the way 100, the original We Are The World was kind of a cheese-fest to begin with so expecting some kind of timeless art from a remake might have been asking too much.
[…] New Video: “We Are The World” (25 For Haiti) Man, this is worse than I even imagined. Sigh. YK2 UPDATE: Ain’t fuckin’ with this! […]
WTF? WHERES THE VINCE VAUGHN SOLO!?
I.S.A.A.C. and ian aka @StellasKid —I couldn’t have said it better myself. It is what it is. Nonetheless, it was nice to see so many people from so many different walks together for this. And they definitely did crawl under some rocks to find some of these folks lol
very telling demonstration of just how much soul is missing from today’s technology assisted, image infatuated, corporation dictated popular music landscape… I’m the last one to be on some preservationist shit but… has music really regressed this far? If it generates more money for Haiti then fuck it… but still damn I’m depressed…
That’s that illness, son. That Clef, Kanye, LL, T-Wayne, will.i.am crack rock, fa sheezy. Yeah buddy…
…this entire thing was fuckery of the highest order. Shows you what in ARTIST MJ was. Fuck a remix of a classic. Next thing R. Kelly will redo Billie Jean, and I’ll have to “Higher Learning” this bitch.
justin beiber got the start for all the kids bro….that’s prolly why
