If there’s one thing War Child does almost as well as raising awareness and support for children affected by war, it’s releasing compilation albums.
To commemorate the organization’s tenth anniversary, yet another impressive album is being released featuring some of the year’s biggest voices in music, thanks to Universal Music.
“Universal Music Canada is thrilled to be deepening our relationship with War Child. It is a great honour to be releasing an album that will continue to assist War Child’s mission around the world,” said Randy Lennox, President & CEO of Universal.
“Let It Rain” by Sy’rai ft. A.U.C.A.Y.D. will be the first single from War Child: 10, a song recorded in Freetown, Sierra Leone. A.U.C.A.Y.D. (Artists United for the Development of Children and Youth) runs a series of youth empowerment workshops, where children are invited to participate in activities surrounding music, drama and dance. War Child was originally founded by filmmakers Brian Wilson and Bill Leeson in 1993, and has established head offices in Canada, the UK and the Netherlands. Members of the charity work with communities in Afghanistan, Darfur (Sudan), Uganda, Sierra Leone, Democratic Republic of Congo, Ethiopia, Sri Lanka and Georgia.
It looks as though the King of Pop will live on, not just in spirit, but in a documentary entitled “Michael Jackson’s This Is It.” Less than a week after the trailer for the eagerly anticipated production debuted during the VMAs, a Los Angeles Superior Court judge has approved a deal to release a soundtrack to the film.
According to the LA Times, Superior Court Judge Mitchell Beckloff approved a deal on Thursday afternoon that gives Jackson’s longtime label home, Sony Music Entertainment, permission to release a CD to accompany the film, which chronicles Jackson’s rehearsals for what was to be his comeback residency at the O2 arena in London.
Singer Jewel seems to have given up her aspirations from her last album to be another Britney Spears and has almost gone back to her roots with her new CD, “Good-bye Alice in Wonderland.”
Jewel began her career with her folky-popish CD “Pieces of Me.” Up until her last album, that was pretty much how she stayed. But then there was a new Jewel who was no longer a girl with a guitar asking who will save our souls, but instead was a girl showing some leg, whose soul needed to be saved.
Luckily for Jewel fans, the old Jewel we all remember has returned with her new CD. “Good-bye Alice in Wonderland” is a collection of Jewel songs that die-hard fans will love. However, the CD is missing the pop hook that made her debut CD, and then her sophomore CD so wonderful, which means non-Jewel fans may not find it as exciting.
The songs chronicle her journey from her home of Alaska to her move to California before she was so famous. However, the CD does not have any songs that will be monster hits like “Who Will Save Your Soul” and “You Were Meant For Me,” but it does showcase Jewel’s amazing songwriting skills with songs like “Again and Again.”
In a shocking move yesterday, Universal Music, the world’s largest record company, said it would cut wholesale prices by up to $3 per CD, due to a 31% drop in sales over the last 3 years (industry wide).
Current wholesale prices per CD start at $12.02USD, with the average retail price being $18.98USD. Under the new pricing scheme, Universal hopes that retailers will also cut their prices by $3, bringing the average CD to about $10USD.
“Our new pricing model will enable U.S. retailers to offer music at a much more appealing price point in comparison to other entertainment products,” Jim Urie said. “We are confident this pricing approach will drive music fans back into retail stores.”
It is unknown at this time if these new prices will affect worldwide distribution channels or just in the United States. You can expect to see these lower prices beginning October 1st.
