Global non-profit IntraHealth International has partnered with Grammy Award-winning artist and internationally acclaimed humanitarian Youssou N'Dour on a charity album titled OPEN Remix, benefiting a new initiative created to address the most critical health issues in Africa by putting the latest open source technologies directly in the hands of health workers.


Some of entertainment's biggest stars are lending their talents. Nas, Duncan Sheik and Peter Buck of R.E.M. are among the headliners donating remixes of the Youssou N'Dour song, Wake Up, to raise funds and visibility for the highly anticipated IntraHealth OPEN initiative.

Free downloads of the songs will be available with a suggested donation through several distributions partners including Rhapsody, iLike, Amazon MP3, and through IntraHealth's website.

In the meantime, please enjoy a sample of the version of Wake Up featuring Nas. We're amped for this AND it's for a good cause. Can't beat that, kiddies.
