In the aftermath of the Haitian Earthquake that occurred in January of this year, multiple musicians from around the world pledged their support and their talents to raise money for the on going relief efforts.
We Are the World 25 for Haiti was easily the most popular and recognizable song reproduced to benefit Haitian recovery. The song Wavin' Flag, although received less publicity and recognition, is just as moving and touching as the Michael Jackson remake. Originally preformed by K'naan, a Somali-Canadian singer/songwriter, the remake features some fifty singers from around the world sending a powerful message to Haiti and the world.
Wavin' Flag by K'naan featuring Nelly Furtado, Sam Roberts, Avril Lavigne, Pierre Bouvier of Simple Plan, Tyler Connolly of Theory of a Deadman, Kardinal Offishall, Jully Black, Lights, Deryck Whibley of Sum 41, Serena Ryder, Jacob Hoggard of Hedley, Emily Haines, Hawksley Workman, Drake, Chin Injeti, Ima, Pierre Lapointe, Elisapie Isaac, Esthero, Corb Lund, Fefe Dobson, Nikki Yanofsky, Matt Mays, Justin Nozuka and Justin Bieber.
