Mr. Bobby | Manu Chao | Playing For Change | Song Around The World

Experience the rhythmic beats and uplifting melodies of “Mr. Bobby” Song Around The World, featuring the legendary Manu Chao. This innovative collaboration is the first time Playing For Change incorporates a fusion of hip-hop and reggae in a Song Around The World, adding a modern twist to the classic song, breathing new life into its timeless message of hope and solidarity in a fitting tribute to the legacy of Bob Marley.
Join us on this sonic journey as we bring together talents from the streets of Angola, Colombia, and Kingston, along with the talented Mayan rapper Tzutu Kan, who imbues hip-hop with ancestral wisdom, and Elly B, a phenomenal Jamaican guitarist, singer-songwriter; creating a truly mesmerizing and culturally diverse musical experience.
With reggae reflecting the ideas of freedom, resilience and unity and hip hop’s profound ability to use words to change lives, “Mr. Bobby” Song Around The World champions the transformative power of music.

This was fabulous from a music standpoint and from a global humanity standpoint, with people in different places blending together so beautifully. I am amazed by these performances. I would like to see some behind the scenes videos of how these are put together when the folks performing are in different places and presumably not performing simultaneously. Who does the arranging? Who does the mixing? How is this even accomplished? Regardless of all that, I always enjoy these. Keep up the great work!

Please consider using a darker tint on the overlays telling the artists names and their locations. White often blends in with the background and is both difficult to notice and sometimes hard to read in the few seconds we have before they are gone. Otherwise, I think this was another great vid from one of the important movements on the planet.
