I found some time to sit down with one of the best artists about generation. So here's my comments and with a welcome home,

welcome to my home good, to see you back again. You mean to South Africa more than most american artists have. Does the country have a special place for you I got a mean Africa in itself has a special place for any person who is trying to identify the reality that we all come from here right, don't necessarily know which parliament we go for right, great armies, I'm here I will try to go back and I don't know introduced. Such new culture going places meet new people. Finding things I really do feel at home, not just because I'm in Africa, but because he will go citizen friendly, you been with global citizen a longer than most people. Have you ve been an ambassador for a long time. You know you ve been part of what they doing in and around the globe and a lot of people don't know that Usher has been involved in all of the projects to be involved in how do you get involved with global citizen and what can- with you why I have always felt like I was a global susan before I knew what global Susan was right about.

And the idea of utilizing in you have is an attain. I had an opportunity via either advocate for people who don't so we have what they need. That's always been a part of wire, it became part of who am or was as a result of hanging out with Quincy Jos, nice, like it not to sell records in in I'll. Be have renown happy songs. But what do you do? What do you are that helps that helps the people right? You know what philanthropic ever see you have signed started. My new look foundation and use later. People like this organization and Hugh. I Evans, reached out to me and want me to be a part. Of an amazing of it on the more in They see in your my foot. I had a broad programme for their folly of pictures. Originally came up. With the glad the golden crown. Do as I do yeah man, I mean it

were global citizens is about, is what I think is a navy the responsibility at all, in a should recognise that they have you, you talk You found, and I won't I didn't know how young you were when you started your foundation. I didn't know how deep and you were I mean you know of Russia? You know the sing I knew I should performer, but I didn't know of Russia. The person is trying to build a community. Tell me about it. You look foundation that has a very specific cause here, a very specific target and you ve been successfully achieving them. Was successes is relative. Did the idea Is Five hundred and one c, three don't function by themselves. What is people you know are donating and also to show support for what we doing and greater, but the efforts of being able to give kids real. You know, opera,

He is we're really stars for me. Is that one or two things it makes me laugh. Somebody believed in me. Somebody gave me an opportunity to note it. There was more in my environment that was waiting for me. So that's what the new look, A has done, and I really do have to thank my mother because starting at a young age. You know at the guy a lot of things like make a wish foundation stuff that way, eventually cyclist on a foundation of your own, and what would you wanted to be created around right Those are she helped me bring that a wishing so now Eighteen years later, still doing it and loving it s, an amazing board, an amazing opportunity we changed the idea, really be the reference that talk about one thing to say a donate, but you don't know where the money goes. If you don't understand, I haven't reference of what it looks like it The cadmium is it, you know, is it a workshop is something peer to peer training, those type of things I think big.

To become the reference of what I'm talking about what the new Look foundation represents? So Asha is twenty years old he's working on his music career. His mom said to him? You want to get involved in something greater than yourself use. The kids were in court. You. She kids, who may have to spend most of their life behind bars This connects with you and you create an organization that aims to change that. Did it connect with you, because you still kids who look like you? They were your age. They, like your life, could have gone completely different way with the something about that. I think that was the beginning of and I say right now, a Monday unable to understand that is somewhat of a trap right, that is, the chicken down effect of wood. Mass incarceration is about right? I mean, if you are profound, if you do not understand, how to see your way out of the reality of the means.

You feel like you're, subject to you'll, get lost ultimately wanted to give kids a new look on like the world experiences. Have people like yourself come in talk about where you came from how you found your spark and in what you ultimately do, to gain or right when you look at, America's going through now. You know it feels like the issues that America Head and then a new path. And came in, and some of the issues seem to go away. The media's, but they haven't really gone away mission for the black community in the United States. Your foundation speaks to an idea that many people feel is corn. That is

getting kids into spaces where they have the best chance of not being profile. They have the best chance of not falling into a trap, but the truth is we ve seen time and time again that at the end of the day, part of the trap is just the color of your skin. When you talk to these kids, when you engage with them is, is there is there a thing that you have inside of? You is the idea that you have we, you have a fear for them as well. I don't speak to the fear. I think I speak more to the pride of the idea that they could be something greater than what the world subjects them to either looks at them like, to see the beauty and fine who identify something that will change your life Emily. Because not only are you doing it for yourself, but you doing you for young man, a woman who from the same area that you came for, there was a look of four that opportunity and our way out. You know and I do about. We appeared appears that gives me, as now an adult, benevolently

It contains a case. I don't do what you do. Is the program to do this and you re right now, as only gonna be so many travellers ushers comprise Lebron James, where you can find something that you are passionate about, any could become a career and it could be a way you can hear the people were pressing behind this global citizen is a concept. It is it is a movements about action is about engaging people, but it is also about the entertainment. I mean it. It's a beautiful com, they should be all of these things. You came through South Africa and immediately The country was so light by the fact that Russia was going to be performing with blood. Coffee, south african? I know I mean everyone is excited by this. Why was that important to you who is black coffee to you? What what? What? What made this you know, Spock, tangible flame were out of order. That sounds it. I've come. I wanted to do something I think for the region, and I felt like I don T like coffee. Is that why out of all the african performers will be a part of this

Every effort I felt like I want Be a part of this amazing moment really was set within the intentions. Of not only celebrating what we're doing a global citizens which obviously is very elaborate, but I felt like this was that start suddenly without work on music for the album. You know that's coming way. This will be an amazing kick off and the intense is really too said. The spirit in the right direction is not just black coffee. You also got a special group of people who can we working with you on that stage? Tell me about them idea: it's a damn school days, collaborative right, a poison, from Johannesburg. Will performers in and I really wanted. As I say, spirit of this to be right. Right, so to me, dance has always been a universal language. They say music is but day is really is right. There's something about those movements

You call that home, I think, stairway right right, right have literally literally starts with a right. So this will wonder what is what does that mean to you? What does what is what is starting for Russia? I mean we ve seen so many evolutions of assets, but what is this aid for you? This aid, for me, was just reconnection.
