British Recording Artist Aaron Paul, was cited for his outstanding contribution to society through his commitment to supporting inclusivity and diversity through his music, reaching across global cultural boundaries, paving the way for individuals to rise above repression. Gregory Petan, an accomplished fine arts artist and gifted guitarist, was cited for his art and music which resonates across multi-cultural platforms to promote world peace.
The collaboration of these two talented artists was an event waiting to happen. Together, they dedicated their new single, A World Song, to the United Nations and the event’s general assemblage. ‘A World Song produced and written by Aaron, and co-produced and mixed by legendary reggae music studio audio engineer Paul ‘Virgo’ Bent of Workin Class Musik. “This is truly different from anything I’ve ever worked on before and collaborating with Gregory which was such a blessing,” says Paul. I’m thrilled to have been introduced to him by the legendary award-winning entertainment industry producer and humanitarian, Lucia Kaiser.

We have the perfect synergy between two artists striving for social change. With its mix of different cultural instruments and even the sound of elephants crying out, we believe the lyrical message stands on its own, connecting people from every corner of the world. It’s a message we truly believe in and feel proud to stand behind.” Petan commented, “Music is the universal language and the goal here was to create a song to help unite the human race universally. We all have a story and it makes life worth living when we strive to help each other by recognizing we’re all the same. “That’s so true, says, Paul. “We all need love and support no matter who we are or where we live. And we can be whatever we want to be. Ancient is our world, and every one is unique. We must never give up hope in life. Music is the bridge to global unity bringing cultures together in one voice for self-acceptance and world peace.” Petan says, “Working with Aaron gave me the opportunity to incorporate earth elements and the sounds of wildlife into the mix. Two of Gregory Peten’s artwork designs are featured and displayed on the ‘A World Song’ art cover sleeve design. Two very original beautiful and intricate mosaic, hand-sketched, medallion sized embalms of an Elephant and Cheetah, both representing each artist.
