Genius by We Drew Genius
These words are written by Genius, a young African man, when he was a young orphan living on the streets of Zimbabwe.
Through a chain reaction, an Englishman living in Argentina, without having met Genius, composed music for the words and recorded them across the planet with Alex James.
We have managed to locate and speak to Genius. He said that if we could make some money with the music it would help guarantee that he could be off the streets. This is the reason we have created this page.
The album artwork is by Genius; the portrait of Genius by Drew Walker; and the WeDrew Collective together continue exploring ways to provide support..
Genius is currently in school studying 10 subject and loving the Sciences!!
