"I have been a fan of Wyclef's for many years, from his work with the Fugees
to his success as a solo artist," said Venus Williams. "He's a fantastic
writer, singer, producer and performer whose music crosses genres and touches
people's lives. I am specially impressed by Wyclef's dedication to
humanitarian causes and his strong sense of character. I was so happy to meet
Wyclef and work with him on our 'Iconoclasts' episode but not even in my
wildest imagination, did I expect that such a beautiful song would be one of
the outcomes from meeting Wyclef. He is an amazing human being and it is
truly an honor for me to be recognized in such a wonderful way by such a
gifted musician and exceptional person."
我當Wyclef的歌迷好幾年了 從與Fugees合作到獨立創作
他是個很棒的作家.歌手.製作人.表演家
他的音樂跨越生活並觸動人們的心
更讓我印象深刻的是他的人道主義以及歌曲中堅強的形象
能跟他在Iconoclasts合作就像是美夢成真
他是個很棒的人 並且能藉這個節目跟他認識也是我的榮幸
