Jay-Z tour to stress water crisis

Submitted by: kirkland on Thursday August 10th, 2006 at 12:57 PM EST

Rapper Jay-Z is to use his forthcoming world tour to visit poor regions where clean water is lacking.

At the launch of a collaboration with the United Nations, he stressed that young people need to get the message about saving water.

The tour will be followed for a new programme by music channel MTV.

"As I started looking around at ways I can become helpful, it started with water," said the rapper, who is also head of Def Jam records.

"Young people need to know the problem exists," he added.

UN Secretary General Kofi Annan said the world water crisis is "one of the most important issues on the agenda for the United Nations," and that getting Jay-Z involved will help raise awareness.
