Anderson .Paak + Gwen Stefani Drop Olympics Anthem: Look + Listen

Anderson .Paak and Gwen Stefani have released their “Hello World” Coca-Cola/collaboration concurrent with the Summer Olympics kicking off this weekend in Paris.

Written by One Republic’s Ryan Tedder – “a song that celebrates the magic that happens when the world comes together at the Olympic Games,” states the official Olympics’ YouTube – will be aired throughout the Paris Olympics in the International Olympic Committee’s coverage as well as Coke adverts shown during the event, as the two partnered on the creation of the song.

As Tedder recently told Billboard “It’s not every day that you’re given the opportunity to write an official song in celebration of the Olympic Games, and I am grateful to be part of such an incredible collaboration.” “The Games are an important way for all of us to come together and celebrate each other globally, and we wrote this song with that in mind. I grew up watching every Olympics since childhood, so this is a lifelong dream. I hope this song inspires and uplifts.”

Anderson .Paas added, “While we hope the song becomes an instant hit and gives listeners worldwide a new sound to groove to, we also hope to inspire fans and athletes to embrace the differences that make them unique as we celebrate the excitement of the Olympic Games.”
