Soul singer gives heart to fight AIDS

Miami Herald - Wednesday, August 14, 2002


Me'Shell Ndegocéllo is teaming up with the Gay Men's Health Crisis to help fight AIDS.

The vocalist will be the musical director of You Rock My Soul, a benefit concert at Carnegie Hall on Nov. 11. Ndegocéllo also will be among the evening's performers.

"We all have the power to make a difference in the fight against HIV and AIDS. No matter who we are, who we sleep with, or where we live," said Ndegocéllo, whose music ranges from funk to soul.

"AIDS does not discriminate. That's one of the reasons why I support this work and am participating in this event." Other performers will be announced later, organizers said.
