Anis' cultural recommandation :

• Listen to this rap song : Love Waits. This clip was done by El Sistema Greece in the frame of the Lullaby Project, in partnership with Carnegie Hall. Anser and Andriana wrote this rap song about love, forgiveness and second chances ; it was dedicated to Andriana's underaged son who is detained in prison.
