Stars donate songs for Japan fundraising compilation
By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 23 March 2011
Universal has announced that U2, Rihanna, Bon Jovi, Justin Bieber and Nicki Minaj are amongst the artists who have donated tracks for use on a new compilation to be released in aid of the Japan Red Cross following the earthquake and tsunami that hit the country earlier this month.
A spokesperson for the label said: “We are doing it only digitally because it is faster. [It will be a] a worldwide release”.
If none of those artists are up your street, try the ‘Nihon Kizuna’ compilation, which features 49 tracks from some excellent electronic producers and is also donating all proceeds to the Japan Red Cross – www.nihonkizuna.com.
