Over the course of Alicia Keys‘ illustrious career, the singer has routinely used her platform to promote worthwhile causes.

It’s a trajectory that continues with the premiere of new short film ‘Let Me In’ – which also features the star’s latest song ‘Hallelujah.’

The flick aims, in partnership with charity We Are Here, to raise awareness for World Humanitarian Day and support those fleeing to safety.

On the project, Keys said:

“I want us all to imagine if we were the refugees, if we were the ones torn from the arms of our families and loved ones. While some seek to stoke the flames of division and turn us against our fellow neighbors, we’re here to make the case for love and compassion. How would we feel if it were happening to us?”

While we’ve already reported ‘Last Year Was Complicated,’ the sophomore solo effort from Nick Jonas, will fail to dethrone Drake‘s ‘Views’ from the top of the Billboard 200, the set still comes as somewhat of a victory for the former teen pop star.
