Plan B To Release Charity Single With Elton John, Paloma Faith

February 4, 2011
Plan B To Release Charity Single With Elton John, Paloma FaithPlan B has revealed that he is set to record a charity single with Sir Elton John and Paloma Faith.

The track, a new version of his song ‘Hard Times’, will help raise money for the victims of last year’s floods in Pakistan.

Plan B - real name Ben Drew - told The Sun he didn’t think Britons had done enough to help the people in the country.

"Kids were dying in floods, but it wasn't promoted heavily over here as it was going on,” he said. "Haiti was promoted when that happened, but it didn't happen in Pakistan."

The single has yet to be given a release date.

Meanwhile, Plan B is in the running for this year's BRIT Awards, which take place at London's O2 Arena later this month.
