Last July, I wrote about my student/Prince, Imran Imoo Raza , who had recorded the first of twelve songs, Love Can Reign, in support of his documentary, The Karachi Kids, which will be released now, in Feb/Mar. He is currently in Pakistan filming the final installment on the piece.
The Love Can Reign DVD was released along with the CD two weeks ago to an enthusiastic audience of press and television executives and the powerful presentation elicited talk of a Grammy. The second Patriotic song, was recorded was recorded last week, with the perennial favorite Pat Boone, teaming up with Imoo, for a release in late Spring. In the meantime, please enjoy :

Pakistan born singer Imran Raza brings together A list American superstars in a message of peace for the world. Imran Raza, also known as Imoo, is joined by legendary Guns n Roses guitarist Slash and drummer Matt Sorum, Quiet Riot's Chuck Wright, House of Lords Lanny Cordola, opera singer Richard Fredricks, together with the Pakistani Sufi Musicians to create the unequivocal masterpiece "Love Can Reign". The video for the song has already become a huge hit playing on AAG TV, MTV Pakistan, and The Musik Channels. It is an inspirational call to the world to end pointless bickering, needless violence, and for humanity to come together in the spirit of love. This song is the first single for a project where Imoo has worked with American superstars from the late Michael Jackson to the great Pat Boone. Imoo has said that music is the universal language that will bring together the heart and minds of the worlds people so that guns and bombs will no longer be necessary.
