    So Izzy Gold #2 (or #1 depending on who's team you bat for) is helping to spread the holiday cheer to children at the NY Ronald McDonald House.  He, along with his Izzy Gold Cares organization and The Tommy Hilfiger Corporate Foundation offered its recording and production services to Ronald McDonald and put on a recording session with the kidz.  Titled "Cancer Sucks" and "Rock Star" the kids spent ten weeks perfecting them before finally laying them down at the studio with Izzy on Wednesday.
