Description:
Stop The Violence Movement Recording Project
While music's elite schmoozed and boozed for Los Angeles Grammy Week, KRS One focused his energy on curbing violence in American society. A leader among leaders, KRS One focused his influence to confirm vocal contributions from 50 Cent, Busta Rhymes, Snoop Dogg, Fat Joe, Cassidy, Lil Wayne, Rick Ross, Lil Mama, Talib Kweli and MC Lyte for a recording project benefiting his newly revitalized Stop the Violence Movement. Building on support from these artists, KRS One locked himself into the Los Angeles Recording School for three days of sessions February 7-9. Nelly, David Banner, The Game, Chamillionaire and 55 other artists joined the legendary artist/activist over the weekend as he produced a historic audio and video recording for the Stop the Violence Movement. KRS One also welcomed cornerstones of the LA underground like 2Mex (Visionaries), Rakaa Iriscience (Dilated Peoples) and Planet Asia, demonstrating a true connection to community through the three days of recording sessions, which also included Raheem DeVaughn. The resulting music project, produced by Duane Darock Ramos, will be distributed through the Stop the Violence Movement to promote peace and non-violent means of conflict resolution. Get your teaser copy on Monday February 18th.
