A child dies every 10 seconds in this world from hunger. Over the last 5 years, the number of people on the verge of starvation has risen from 80 million to 385 million. Tony Robbins proposed the 100 billion meal challenge as a response to this crisis.
Music has long been viewed as a divine art meant to help and motivate people. Forty years ago, Live Aid and We Are the World demonstrated how music can inspire worldwide care and action. Tony Robbins sought to replicate this impact by recruiting the right producers.
Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, the most successful Grammy producers in history, were brought on board. They explained that they would create the foundation of the song, but the song would belong to everyone, allowing each artist to create their own version.
Tony Robbins reached out to Jimmy Jam, who then involved additional collaborators. The team worked on refining elements such as the snare and cymbals during recording sessions. The project emphasized collective songwriting, with the most important artists contributing to the creation of the track.
The goal was to produce a modern anthem that would serve as both an enjoyable and meaningful piece of music.
Music functions as a platform to discuss larger global issues and serves as a powerful tool for communication that could save nations. The recording process involved multiple run-throughs, with the final version being captured for the official record.
Participants described the experience as magical and an honor to be part of. Music was compared to magic, noting that one can enter a room with nothing and leave with a song capable of changing minds and, ultimately, the world.
In a world where many things feel out of control, individuals can still make a difference. The project aims to use music in a divine way to raise spirits and encourage giving. One participant noted that they look at life in an open-handed way, stating that you cannot receive anything without opening your hand.
Artists expressed that they have been blessed with the gift to perform and sing, and that the time is now to channel that energy toward helping others. The message emphasized that no one should go to bed not knowing where their next meal is coming from.
The hope is that listeners will be moved not only by the music but also to find a way to give to those in need. The more people contribute, the better humanity becomes. The entire project is described as a work of love.
