`As some of you know, since last year I’ve been working with Staying Alive, MTV’s HIV and AIDS Awareness Campaign. I was overjoyed when they decided to make me their male ambassador with my close friend Kelly Rowland taking the female role. It’s an honor to be a part of Staying Alive for many reasons, as it is a cause that is very close to me. Having lost loved ones and seeing the toll it takes on people affected including the people that love and care for them, it is important we do whatever can within our power to fight this deadly and rapidly spreading epidemic. I strongly feel the best cure we have at this point is increasing education and building awareness. It’s how we use this information in the choices we make that will determine whether  or not our generation will help make a change or ultimately make things worse. If my influence on my peers and young ones that look up to me can help decide what music to listen to or what clothes to where i hope and pray it will help you decide to be safe and take your LIFE seriously. Each one teach one, love and respect - Travie`
