Charity Song Project “We Must Rise Again”

The people in Tohoku, Japan have been suffering in the aftermath of the devastating earthquake and tsunami that hit on March 11, 2011. The Japanese people have always supported reggae, and now reggae would give back to Japan by way of a charity song.

Japanese owned Diamond Edge Records along with artists like Bunny Rugs (Third World), Gyptian, Cherine Anderson, Lukie D, Bushman, Ghost, G-Whizz, Duane Stephenson, Chevaughn, Junior X, Ginjah and Anthony Que came together to record a single song. Norris Webb of Third World produced the track as a main producer.

The song will be available on iTunes, Amazon MP3 and ringer song web sites in Japan. All the sales from downloads will be donated to the Japanese earthquake victims through Japanese Red Cross.
