Fatlip did a remix of "Mumia 9-1-1," a sort of hip-hop "we are the world"
but dedicated to mumia. It was released as a CD single on 9-11-99.
Slimkid Tre does a short verse. Others contributing verses are Pharaoh
Monch, Aceyalone, Zack de la Rocha, What?What?, Channel Live, Chuck D,
Divine Styler, and Black Thought.

Other mixes are produced by Rocks tha World, Diamond D, and Adampa.
Despite all that talent going into it, i'm underwhelmed.
