Performing at the Global Citizen Festival would amplify my message of love, cooperation, and freedom through music. It would allow me to reach more people and create a deeper impact uniting us as global citizens with one voice. This stage would not just elevate my career, but also the movement of using music as a force for unity, awareness, and positive change across cultures and borders.
