CNN HERO OF THE YEAR NOMINEE
AGREES TO DIGITAL SALES OF “HERO” SONG
America’s 1st Urban Patriotic Rapper Don Preach delivers the music
"I don't like rap music, but I love what you do!!!
- Courtney Love
Friday, June 18, 2010_Los Angeles, CA...When Dan Wallrath, CNN Hero of the Year nominee heard “I’m just a HERO and I might not even make it,” like a soldier’s cry in the face of eminent death, he did what any new music listerner would do: find the artist. More than just a catchy tune, Wallrath knew these lyrics summated the ultimate sacrifice American soldiers make in battle. Thus, a new campaign between rapper Don Preach, the single “Hero” and Wallrath was born.
Now, Don Preach has partnered with BABASOT, Bay Area Builders Associatin Support Our Troops, a non-profit organization founded by Wallrath, to increase the number of mortgage-free homes for disabled American soldiers and widows from the War on Terror. Through positive forces of nature and music, Wallrath and Preach asks every American 18 and older to buy “Hero” and "My American Dream" on iTunes this 4th of July for only $1.98. 100% of all digital sales profits from "Hero" support BABASOT.
"My first impression of Don Preach was 'WOW!' when I listened to his moving war vet tribute song 'Hero'. I immediately became a fan of Don's unique hybrid sound, fusing playful and poignant rap lyrics with infectious hip hop / pop melodies. Don is a hugely talented songwriter, recording artist and performer that will no doubt have world-wide success."
- Brent Harvey, Executive Producer Hollywood Music in Media Awards
BABA initiates the search for disabled veterans to gift them and their families mortgage-free homes, and naturally finding them in the thousands with only a handful of homes to give. This suits Don Preach just fine. Integrated with the light energy of a consumate optimist and inspired by his own talent and ability to draw over 600,000 Myspace artist page hits in less than 18 months, he is in stealth mode for success.
"You did it! You bridged the gap between hip hop and rock. “My American Dream” is a hit.
- DJ Lethal, Limp Bizkit
Don Preach is going to be shown appreciation repeatedly for using his music to make our world a better place and for inspiring even young Americans to begin questioning, "What is My American Dream?"
