ARE YOU LISTENING?! Recording artist Radiant Amar’s song for Haiti, “I Send My Heart to Haiti”, was just released. As you may know, his brother Hasaun Muhammad has accompanied Wyclef Jean for several days at a time since earthquakes ravaged Haiti on January 12.

Jerry Wonder (The Fugees) praises Radiant Amar: “His sound is where hip-hop is heading.”

Radiant Amar has partnered with Knowlove and a group of powerful 1st graders from Brooklyn Excelsior Charter School to record “I Send My Heart to Haiti”.

Please support the tireless, heartfelt efforts of my friends in their efforts to support Wyclef Jean’s Yéle Haiti Foundation by downloading this song and donating a minimum of $1.

Radiant Amar is a friend and personal muse of mine: his unique brand of social entrepreneurship is backed by his smooth vocals. During his childhood, he saw the bad side of violence, drugs, and gangs – and chose to do something about it. Radiant founded the C.H.A.N.G.E. Initiative, and has partnered with Russell Simmons, T.I., Rev. Al Sharpton, and others to encourage people, regardless of their age, race, class or creed, to become agents of positive social change. Radiant isn’t just a musical talent but a giving soul who is focused on change as a way of life and thought pattern for future-focused young people. I have seen fellow social-cause oriented young leaders of our generation gravitate towards Radiant as a voice of inspiration, a visionary, and a catalyst – he is a true hero.

HeroEx, which promotes social entrepreneurship by giving part-time delivery opportunities to disadvantaged and unemployed members of the San Francisco community, is proud to support unique and talented social entrepreneurs like Radiant Amar.
