'Hamilton's' Lin-Manuel Miranda releases song with Jennifer Lopez to honor Pulse victims

NEW YORK, July 8 (UPI) -- Earlier this week, Hamilton-creator Lin-Manuel Miranda tweeted that he was recording a song with Jennifer Lopez to honor the 49 victims of the Pulse nightclub massacre in Orlando last month.

Their song, "Love Make The World Go Round," is available for download today on iTunes with all proceeds going to the Hispanic Federation's Proyecto Somos Orlando fund which focuses on crisis management and mental health.

The murders at Pulse took place on the club's Latin night and Miranda and Lopez, who are both Puerto Rican, wanted to give back to the Latin community.

"The old man Miranda put some words together for the occasion," he tweeted.

It was also announced today that the duo will perform the song on July 11 as part of the Today show's summer concert series.

Love Make the World Go Round.
Proceeds benefit the Somos Orlando Fund. Here's the iTunes link. Whaddayathink? https://t.co/RBkIQyMtU3
