American singer Jennifer Lopez and Broadway´s Lin-Manuel Miranda — writer and star of the hit musical “Hamilton” — have recorded a tribute song to benefit victims of Orlando´s June 12 nightclub attack.
The two artists both tweeted Monday a behind-the-scenes video of themselves recording “Love Make the World Go Round.”
“We cannot let them diminish or intimidate us,” raps Miranda in the clip.
The artists have not yet announced a release date for the song.
On Twitter Miranda said profits from downloads of the track will benefit the Hispanic Federation of Orlando, an organization that opened a fund called #SomosOrlando a few hours after the mass shooting.
Both Miranda and Lopez are of Puerto Rican origin. Many of the shooting victims were of that heritage.
