Swizzy & Alicia Adopt A Whole South African Village
Celebs aren’t just adopting one kid from the African continent anymore. Swizz Beatz dished that he and his wife Alicia Keys have adopted a village in Soweto, South Africa. After going there to film a process between a woman with AIDS and her daughter, the couple was so enamored with the large village, they pledged to build schools and other support for the people.
The people of the village asked Swizz why rappers in America are always talking about killing each other when they have hot water and shoes on their feet and money and things no one in their village has, and it was an eye opener.
“I’m just sitting there, kicking it, talking to the locals. Mind you, they have no water, they have no heat, they have no electricity, [and] they have tin houses. So I’m speaking to this one guy…and he was like, ‘This is beautiful what [you’re doing], but we have no water, we have no this, we have no that. We have no tools. How can we help better ourselves?’” said Beatz.
Since the encounter, the couple set up a meeting with the local government, which granted them approval to purchase containers, ultimately allowing residents access to heat and hot water. They have also started an education program for the men in Soweto in hopes that it will help them get jobs and build their village. Of the Soweto people, Beatz added, “Instead of being mad, disgruntled, ignorant [about their economic disadvantages], their vibe was like, super-Zen.”
