Akon and Pepsi have released a charity single with some surprising friends – international football superstars Fernando Torres and Didier Drogba.

Oh Africa is available for download from iTunes now, with proceeds going to Akon’s Konfidence Foundation. Founded in 2006, the Konfidence Foundation is dedicated to increasing public awareness of the conditions in Africa and providing underprivileged African youth with access to learning and recreational environments equipped with modern technology, educational materials, recreational resources, and health and wellness services.

“We’re really excited about the new track and music video from multi-platinum selling artist Akon and Grammy-nominee Keri Hilson and hope it raises money for less fortunate children in Africa,” said Ahmed Abdel-Karim, UK marketing manager for Pepsi.
