    Honestly, I did not figure Wyclef to be a natural at this video making business. Everytime I would see him on camera with a host, it would always be the typical rapper attitude that would permeate. I’m glad to see that it is not always about portraying what your art is supposed to represent but that you can be a true individual, not afraid to laugh, to show a real side to who you are! Because seeing all the American rap stars go at it, you figure that the bling is all that matters and that without the ghetto ”don’t f# with me” attitude they don’t feel real. I got to say that I respect Wyclef for promoting peace and speaking for the poor in Haïti or elsewhere. But most of all, I get the feeling Wyclef got a sense of the impact he can have on young people. By not being a proponent of the gangsta lifestyle and that showing that rap can be a beautiful art form especially when you stay clear of fowl language. Not that I am for censorship but I think expanding your vocabulary in other realms is beneficiary. Last note in french because I am francophone:

    D’autres collaborations avec Muzion seraient appréciées. Je crois que tu sous-estimes ton habileté à faire des chansons en français. À ce que je sache les Haïtiens ont une très bonne habileté d’apprentissage des langues donc ce serait un défi très réalisable pour un artiste de ta trempe.

    Beaucoup de respect!

    I was wondering if you will be doing any rock projects. If so I would like to contribute some tracks. When you get a chance check out one of the songs I want to contribute.
    It’s called “HEY BABY” and it is at myspace.com/quentinspaceboy
    All instruments you hear there were played in real time by myself.

    THANKS SO MUCH AND I HOPE WE CAN DO BUSINESS TOGETHER SOON.

    GOD BLESS………….

    Wyclef, thanks for all the good work you are doing around the world. I am from Zambia and have been a fan of yours for 11 years. A lot of people like me are curious about how you keep so cool. I mean why aren’t you angry? Has it not been a temptation with all your success to join the street amada and what do you say to the youngstars who escape from such lifestyles is not at option? I have read your blog The Lion’s Mentality and had these questions.

    PeAcE be STILL

    CONSCIENCE:RHYME-HONORING MICHAEL JACKSON- JANET JACKSON -BOYS 2 MEN
    when im rappin it feels like im moonwalking like michael jack
    wit a off the wall formula im bringing that thriller back
    do you remember time when it was heart in a rhyme
    and being bad was talkin somethin real in every single line

    see i cant heal the world but i can give that young kid inspiration
    thru music show em it’s a rhythm in our nation
    while keepin it in control to our number 1 goal
    help your self help another that’s the way love goes

    and when we hit the end of the road from streets hustles to liven free
    we officially married this game on our bending knee
    it wasn’t hard to say goodbye to the old me
    cause now im paid, one sweet day nows my legacy

    i never stop till i get enough
    before i let this game go im a hit it up
    i’ll be lonely at the top em i rich or what
    guess i survive thru the drama plus i did it for my mama .conscience

    Hi Wiclef.

    I really love the work that Yele Foundation has done and continues to do for the underpriviledged in Haiti. I wish more people did the same. I belive that Dr. Guy Theodore does the same. Maybe you guys should team up. Haiti would really benefit and believe me, right now more than ever we need it

    My brother Wyclef, i did not know how else to contact you other than here. I am a fellow Haitian. I was adopted from Haiti about 13 years ago and now I am 21 years senior at Iowa State university. My brother growing up, I have looked up to you as a hero for I always wanted to be like you, from having your voice, your heart and your desire to help our fellow Haitians in Haiti. Often, I get down on myself knowingly I will never do as much as you already done and will continue doing but everyday you give me hope to do my part to help for you are still my Hero. You all good at all that you do, now I think that is a Haitian thing once given a chance to do something :) . Brother Jean, I want to do some much but I have done so little. So far as college student I felt I should not wait to make a different when I am out in the real working world but rather utilize the minds of the college students Im around everyday and use them and their minds to go make a different. I want them to utilize what they are learning and part it into practice in our beloved land Haiti. This comin December I was lucky enough to get a group of us college student to go and implement a playground in the village I left 13 years ago. My hopes and dream job is to run a nonp-profit organization for the children in Haiti. They are very close to my heart. Let me tell you, Life will not be the same if I am not involve in the lives of the Haitian people. I hope some day I can meet you and thank you for giving me hope and somebody who I see as a Hero. You my HERO. Keep being you and for that I will follow in your footstep because neither of us will never forgotten where we are from. I hope to possibly here from you someday.

    God bless you my brother and thank thank thank you for giving me hope and inspiration. To see what I am working on while in college please visit my blog

    My GOD PROTECT YOU ALWAYS!

    Your Brother,
