Lenny Kravitz has teamed up with an Iraqi pop star to release an anti-war song. Kravitz recorded the song We Want Peace with popular Iraqi singer Kadim Al Sahir in Miami last week. The pair have released the track on the website of Rock the Vote - a national organisation which encourages young people to become involved in politics. Kravitz said he had chosen to link up with Rock the Vote "because of its strong stance with young people as defenders of free expression." He joins a growing list of recording artists releasing protest songs directly to the internet to bypass a cautious radio market. REM, the Beastie Boys, John Mellencamp and former Rage Against the Machine frontman Zack de la Rocha have all released anti-war songs via the internet in recent weeks.
