Beyoncé geared up mobilization for relief to over 45 million people in the US island of Puerto Rico, the Caribbean's hit by Hurricane Irma and Maria and  Mexico struck by a 7.1 magnitude earthquake by releasing a new song Thursday night. It was a Remix of J Balvin and Willy Williams' "Mi Gente"

Hurricanes Irma and Maria devastated much of the Caribbean's. The island of Puerto Rico remains largely without electricity supply and telecommunication service. Homes were totally destroyed across the municipality. Collapsed infrastructures such as roads and bridges are making efforts to resupply the island very eventful. The US state has requested for aid in food and water and also household and sanitary wares.

Series of statements from the Puerto Rican officials has heighten attention across the nation and  suggested that relief efforts are not getting to the affected people. Some accounts report that Washington is not doing enough to plight of the people.

Beyoncé, mother of twins, sang both in English and Spanish in the new song "Mi Gente" meaning "My People,". A key line in the lyrics goes "Lift up your people, From Texas, Puerto Rico, Dem islands to Mexico."
