Benetton has sponsored a new recording of Youssou N'Dour's song Birima
in support of its campaign "Africa Works", promoting micro-credit in
Senegal. The recording has been re-arranged by Youssou N'Dour "with
the extraordinary participation of Patti Smith, Simphiwe Dana, Irene
Grandi and Francesco Renga". Patti sings a verse towards the end of
the song. The recording can be purchased from iTunes.
There are two videos of the song:

The first shows Patti in the studio during the recording, whilst in
the second she has an acting role.
