Wyclef Jean Urges Public Not To Forget About Haiti

Although it's been months since January's devastating earthquake on the island of Haiti, Wyclef Jean is continuing to speak out on his native country.
As previously reported the artist and founder of Yele Haiti penned a letter to the government asking them to further help Haitians left homeless during the nation's rainy season.
Now he's moved on to the American public and saysthat people are still suffering.
According to Wyclef there are still a number of people in need of aid including millions who are still homeless.

“1.2 million people are still living out of tents, people are still hungry and the situation of helping through medicine is very important…What I want people to understand is you have a population that's still suffering and is still in need of aid.”

Wyclef also says that the infrastructure of the country must be strengthened so they can continue to rebuild.

“As we rebuild we have to make sure there's a strong education program in this country where kids are learning how to read and write. You're not going to move a country forward until you do that…”

Two Alarm Fire Blazes Philadelphia International Records.

Yesterday a part of our Philadelphia musical history went up in flames.

The fire started Sunday morning on the third floor of Philadelphia International Records on Broad Street near Spruce.

First responders say they saw several young people running from inside the building. One ended up getting stuck inside. He was then rescued by firefighters and treated for minor injuries. He was then taken in for questioning and released.
The fire is believed to have begun on the third floor which was the heart of the company's rich musical history.

"That's where our main studios are; that's where we recorded so many of the artists through the years.

We're just so concerned about all the potential damage that could have happened," Gamble said.
The effects of the fire are being felt by many.

"It's going to be very sad because Gamble and Huff is the Philadelphia sound," Kimmel Center volunteer Joan Goldberg said.

Both Gamble and Huff were out of town when the fire erupted.

M.I.A Teams Up With Blaqstarr For Upcoming Album!

M.I.A. has never been one to follow trends, and on her first album since giving birth to her son, she’s got a few surprises in store, including one very unusual collaboration.

After five months of work, the “Paper Planes” singer tells Rolling Stone that she is putting final touches on the follow-up to 2007’s Kala, due this summer.
This time around, M.I.A. worked mainly with Baltimore producer Blaqstarr. “[He] simply makes music that sounds good, and I needed that,” she tells the magazine. “I definitely needed to come to music on this album, to make music. I don’t want it to be gimmicky or silly or hipstery.”

The mother of one describes the as-yet-untitled album as “honest.” “I just want to be real, whatever that is,” she explains. “Even if my songs are shit, and if I have flaws and if I’m confused, if I offend people or if I don’t offend people, I might try to work it out in public, just so you know that it’s OK to think, that thinking’s not a dirty word.”
Fans can look forward to more singing, in addition to rapping, from the 34-year-old Brit. “I just stopped singing on the last one because I put more emphasis into production, so I was more about
 making beats and sang less on my last album.”
