USA for Africa (United Support of Artists for Africa), was the name under w… Read Full Bio ↴USA for Africa (United Support of Artists for Africa), was the name under which forty-five U.S. artists, led by Lionel Ritchie, Michael Jackson, and Quincy Jones, recorded the hit single "We Are the World" in 1985. The song was a US and UK Number One for the collective in April of that year. The artists also won the Grammy Award for Record of the Year.
The considerable profits from the enterprise went to the USA for Africa Foundation, which used them for the relief of famine and disease in Africa; critics, however, claim that this money went directly to the (often military) governments of the affected countries rather than the people.
A recording of the live performance was released with the Live Aid DVD set released on November 8 2004.
