World Music on Continental Drift

This week, we take a look at the cultural and musical atmosphere of Haiti, which was the site of a catastrophic earthquake just over two months ago. As a tribute to the people of Haiti, we bring you the music and a few facts about this beautiful Caribbean country as our thoughts go out to those still in need of aid.

Also make sure to check out this edition of Global Shuffle where featured the music of our friends on MySpace.com.
