Roger Rocks North Korea
"Roger Clinton, everybody's favorite presidential half-brother/R&B singer, will be rocking in North Korea next month. He will be among the performers at an event dubbed 'The 2000 Peace and Friendship Concert,' to be held in the capital of Pyongyang" (Washington Post, November 27, 1999).
Clinton will be joined by considered to be teenage pop stars from South Korea along with North Korean performers, according to the Seoul-based promoter Korecom" (Washington Post, November 27, 1999).
"The free concert will be taped and aired at a later date on South Korean television. It is considered significant because the two Koreas have technically been at war with each other since 1950, and visits between citizens of either nation are extremely rare" (Washington Post, November 27, 1999).
"Clinton's musical career received a boost in 1992 when his older brother, an amateur saxophonist, was elected to the Oval Office. He made a splash during the inaugural festivities, memorably performing a ballad with pop divas En Vogue" (Washington Post, November 27, 1999).
He has previously performed in South Korea to promote better relations between the United States and that country" (Washington Post, November 27, 1999).
