CaribWorldNews, NEW YORK, NY, Weds. Jan. 27, 2010: Jamaican-born reggae star, Shaggy, has pulled together a number of Caribbean artists to sing for Haiti.
Shaggy, Sean Paul, Sean Kingston, Etana, Tessanne Chin, Haitian musician Belo, David Rudder, Edwain Yearwood and soca singers Alison Hinds and Destra Garcia among others have come together to help the survivors of Haiti. The song, `Rise Again,` was written by Shaggy.
`How can I stop the earth from shaking?,` questions the song. `What can we do to make it better? Is it too late to try?` But the singers answer: `We shall rise again.`
The team hopes to raise money for earthquake survivors in Haiti.
Shaggy said Tuesday the song lets Haitians know that `we are here for them.` It is part of a relief fund established by mobile phone company Digicel.
The 7.0-magnitude quake on Jan. 12 killed an estimated 200,000 people in Haiti.
Shaggy is best known for the 2000 hit `It Wasn`t Me.`
