Songs for Screens: Inside TankAndDaBangas and Yahoo's 'What the World Needs Now' Campaign
as part of the video’s release, while Elephant started its own donation-matching program with its employees for additional organizations including the NAACP Legal Defense Fund and The Bail Project. Plans for Yahoo’s campaign featuring the song are still on hold, but it’s expected to roll out later in the year primarily through TV and digital channels.
I’ve always loved the song. One of my favorite movies is “My Best Friend’s Wedding” with Julia Roberts and I just love that scene where she’s chasing the guy and she steals the truck. [sings] “What the world needs now…” It’s always comfortable when you already know it because you’ve done your own renditions in the mirror. That’s when I knew that I wanted to do the song.
We got to play the Spotify party, but they put me on last. We thought it was ‘bout to be crazy but then everybody almost leaves, and we’re like, “Wait!” It was crazy. [Rosalia’s set was so great that] honestly probably should have been last. I think this will have legs at many different times. It was meant for something else, and the fact that it came out right around this time, I mean I really needed this. Because I’ve been someone that truly believes that what the world needs is love, and true understanding. Because I believe it can suppress everything. If we can show people killing each other constantly all over the news, then we need something that can truly defeat that, and that’s our love for each other as basic humans.
