Just to mention a few lines.

On Cookie The Herbalist’s latest trip to Jamaica, a colorful and lively video was shot at ‚Help Jamaica’ (Library/School/Charity Organiation) located in the heart of Cassava Piece, better known as ‚Gully’, one of the most infamous Ghettos of Kingston. ‚Help Jamaica’ was founded there in 2009 by a German/Jamaican Non Profit Organisation. Its purpose is to give underprivileged children the possibility to learn reading and writing for free. Also after school tutoring and Computer courses for juveniles are offered.
And even more important it is a place where children can find some peace and fun in a secure environment.
The best place to shoot a video for the song ‚Shining Star’.
It is also the goal of this video to support this charitable Organisation in a creative way and to motivate people from foreign countries to participate to the education and improvement in some of the less fortunate districts of this world.
The youths are the future!
