Russell Simmons & Jay-Z Planning Occupy Wall St. Concert




Hip-hop icons Russell Simmons and Jay-Z are planning a concert in support of the Occupy Wall Street movement, according Newsone.
“We are definitely discussing [a concert], Russell Simmons told Billboard.biz. “We’re definitely looking to make a huge impact. We’re actively working for permits. We’ll have one in our hands soon.”

The announcement comes just days after Jay-Z’s involvement in the movement was criticized when it was revealed that Rocawear, the clothing label Jay-Z founded, was selling Occupy Wall Street t-shirts.


I love artist that take a stand on politics!
