WYCLEF JEAN, BAN KI-MOON, BILL CLINTON VISIT HAITI TO RAISE GLOBAL AWARENESS AND NEEDS OF DEVASTATED COUNTRY
Port au Prince, Haiti (March 11, 2009) – Haiti Goodwill Ambassador, Wyclef Jean arrived in Port au Prince yesterday with UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and former U.S. President Bill Clinton in an effort to bring worldwide awareness to Haiti, the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. Haiti, which has been hit by a series of devastating storms over the past year, desperately needs help after more than 800 people died and over 1 million people were left homeless or in desperate need of recovery and reconstruction efforts.
Jean, who is from Haiti and has lead in efforts to help rebuild, educate, and create jobs with his Yéle Haiti foundation was invited to accompany the former President and Secretary-General tour the region. “I was honored to show my support when they asked me to join them on this important humanitarian trip which also gave them the opportunity to experience the beauty underneath the devastation my country and its people have had to face. It’s crucial for me to do all I can to raise awareness and help Haiti get through this tough time.”
While in the country, they visited a Yéle sponsored feeding program at a school in Cité Soleil and an education leadership program in Turgeau, met with President René Preval and senior government officials, and a walking tour of Sonapi Industrial Park. Before the three headed off on a plane back to the US, Jean attended a press conference where Clinton and Ban summarized their trip and discussed the Hope II US trade deal which gives Haiti direct access to US markets for apparel without duty; a bill that Jean lobbied for extensively before it was passed.
Also invited on the trip were renowned physician Paul Farmer, who works extensively in the region, Deputy Chairman of the Toronto-Dominion Bank Frank McKenna, and several other business leaders.

WYCLEF JEAN ANNOUNCES STORM RELIEF FUND FOR HAITI
The storms that have battered Haiti in the past few weeks have left more than 500 dead and wreaked havoc in the lives of more than 600,000 people who have been displaced by flooding or cut off from food supplies. Haitian President René Preval has appealed for help from the international community, saying the country faces a "catastrophe".
Wyclef Jean – musician, Haitian Goodwill Ambassador and founder of Yéle Haiti – has launched the “Haiti Storm Relief Fund” to provide food, water, purification tablets, tents, blankets, medical supplies, hygiene kits as well as funds to a number of non-profit organizations working on the ground to respond to the emergency. Yéle Haiti is working closely with the Pan American Development Foundation and the World Food Programme in this effort, and in consultation with the Haitian government’s emergency management authorities.
Yéle’s Storm Relief Fund has already sponsored food, supplies and water to assist victims in the South-East, including Jakmèl, Cayes-Jakmèl, Marigot and La Vallee. A second wave of support is currently underway in and around Jakmèl in cooperation with the Mayor of this resort community. Containers with emergency supplies are being shipped into the country over the next few weeks as individuals and corporations begin responding to Wyclef Jean’s call for donations. Within days Yéle Haiti’s teams will begin an intensive operation of emergency food distributions with food staples supplied by the World Food Programme.
“My country is facing a serious catastrophe at the moment,” said Mr. Jean, “and we urgently require assistance. But the long-term catastrophe is that we have less than two percent tree cover, and without restoring our forests we will always be susceptible to mudslides and flash floods from storms and hurricanes.”

Wyclef Jean (born October 17, 1972) is a rapper, producer, and member of the superstar hip hop trio The Fugees, known now for a series of high-profile hit singles.
Born in Croix-des-Bouquets, Haiti, Jean moved to Brooklyn when he was nine, then to Northern New Jersey, where he began playing the guitar and studying jazz in high school. In 1987, Jean, his friend Prakazrel Michel (Pras) and his classmate, Lauryn Hill, formed a group called the Tranzlator Crew before becoming The Fugees.
The Fugees signed to Ruffhouse Records and released their debut, Blunted on Reality, but the album was panned and sold poorly. Their eclectic follow-up, The Score, however, sold over 17 million copies worldwide and turned the trio into international superstars. Jean soon announced plans to begin a solo career with 1997's Wyclef Jean Presents the Carnival Featuring the Refugee All-Stars (more typically called simply The Carnival). The album's guests included Hill and Pras along with Jean's siblings, the I Threes (back-up vocals for Bob Marley), Neville Brothers and Celia Cruz. The album was a major hit, as were two singles: "We Trying to Stay Alive" (adapted from The Bee Gees' "Stayin' Alive") and "Gone 'Til November" (recorded with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra).
Jean went on to work with artists including Santana, Tevin Campbell, Cypress Hill, Bounty Killer, Whitney Houston, Destiny's Child, Sublime, Simply Red, Mya, Sin..ad O'Connor, Kimberly Scott, Mick Jagger, Canibus, The Black Eyed Peas and Eric Ben..t. The Fugees remained in limbo during this time, with the follow-up to The Score being continually postponed as all three members cultivated solo careers. Jean's second solo album was The Ecleftic: 2 Sides II a Book, recorded with guests Youssou N'Dour, Earth, Wind & Fire, Kenny Rogers, The Rock and Mary J. Blige. The critical reception was mixed, with many calling the album scattershot and too far-ranging to be cohesive.
Jean's third album, Masquerade, was released in 2002 and sold well, though critics frequently panned it.
His fourth album was The Preacher's Son, an album that Wyclef considered a continuation of his first album, Carnival.
In 2004, he released his fifth album, entitled Sak Pas.. Presents: Welcome to Haiti (Creole 101) (released in the United States by Koch Records). A freewheeling album that is something of a return to his Caribbean roots, most of the songs on the album are in his native language of Haitian Creole or Krey..l. He also covered Creedence Clearwater Revival's song "Fortunate Son" for the soundtrack of The Manchurian Candidate.
Jean also produced and wrote original songs for the original soundtrack to Jonathan Demme's 2003 Documentary "The Agronomist", a film about the legendary Jean Dominique, an active man of the people of Wyclef's homeland, Haiti.
In the same fashion, Jean crafted the music for the documentary Ghosts Of Cite Soleil, in which he found himself on the phone with a young and notorious gang leader in Haiti wishing to leave the life of violence and follow Jean's footsteps and pursue a career in rap.
In 2005, Jean earned a Golden Globe nomination for his track entitled "Million Voices" featured on the soundtrack to the film Hotel Rwanda.
Jean has been active in his support of his native country and created his own foundation Y..le Haiti to provide humanitarian aid and assistance to Haiti, which is currently the poorest nation in the Western Hemisphere. Y..le is a non-political organization intended to empower the people of Haiti and the Haitian diaspora to rebuild their nation.
"The objective of Y..le Haiti is to restore pride and a reason to hope, and for the whole country to regain the deep spirit and strength that is part of our heritage." -Wyclef Jean

SONG FOR SALE.
YOU SOLD OUT AMERICAN. YOU SOLD OUT AMERICAN. YOU SOLD OUT AMERICAN. YOU SOLD OUT AMERICAN. YOU SOLD OUT AMERICAN. YOU SOLD OUT AMERICAN. YOU SOLD OUT AMERICAN.
Super power is on its knees, For years government has been putting the drugs on our streets, On TV you talking about bring peace to Middle East, When you can’t even control your own streets, You think you super cool your state is runned by Jews, You got killers, You hate niggaz you keep pulling triggers, We pray to lord soon he’ll listen,
You sold out American in a day, All your heads are lost above the clouds all you think about is getting rich, American is dying and know one is crying,
The recession has hit the Country hard, Can’t you see the pain in my eyes? Every kid in American is paying the price, Obman you said change would come, But you’re just another puppet on a string, I hope they won’t make you sing, The true power is the invisible kings,
You sold out American You sold out your people, For us it’s another struggle, Your mate bush’s war path made Soldiers turn in to angle dust, Families waiting for there loved ones, They coming in body bags, You wanna win this war put your own kids on the front line, So you could have sleepless nights like us,
American is famous for cocaine, FBI and CIA is the gate keepers are the key players in this game, Aliens are here we all know, But they keeping it a secret from the whole world, On the other side of the bridge everybody needs help.
