HONOLULU (Dec. 13, 2007)-Hawaii's own Willie K., Vili The Warrior and Robert Kekaula have teamed up to honor the University of Hawaii Warrior football team in "Warriors Cry," a song written by Willie K. and featuring performances by Vili The Warrior and Robert Kekaula. The song is produced by Willie K. and Warren Wyatt (WorldSound), mixed by Ron "Ruff" Boyce and released and marketed by OneHawaii.
University of Hawaii Warrior fans will be able to download the song from iTunes beginning Tuesday, Dec. 18. A single of the song also will be released the following week by OneHawaii at stores throughout Hawaii.
"We wrote it as a tribute to the boys for their undefeated season," said Willie K. "It's inspired by the team's Ha'a."
"I dedicate my performance to June Jones for his love for our state, our people and our culture," said Vili The Warrior. "I'd also like to thank Coach Jones for believing in me and for giving birth to Vili The Warrior."
"The Warriors deserve all the accolades and attention they're getting," said Robert Kekaula. "Working with the GREATEST team in school history, with the GREATEST mascot in the country and state's GREATEST on-stage talent in Willie K., is indeed an honor."
The only live performances of "Warriors Cry" this year will take place on Dec. 19 and 20 at "A Christmas Gift: Na Leo's Holiday Music Spectacular" at the Hilton Hawaiian Village.
