So apparently Clef was accused of defrauding the public via his Haiti charity, which has gone into overdrive since the earthquake and raised over $2 million in the last week or so via a text message campaign. Here is his statement against the accusations.

Some muhfuckas have all the luck. The Clipse boys saw in the New Year performing a couple joints on a stage full of Playboy bunnies. Word to their lives.
Fucking hilarious. RZA is the shit.

Check out our labelmate Cy's recent interview with Y2KDaily...
"Last week I caught up with New Jersey’s own Cymarshall Law. We chopped it up for a little covering subjects from his musical background, his recent signing with HiPNOTT Records, and tips on how to be successful as an independent artist. Included is some live footage of his single “Harder Than Thou.” Make sure to support his first official release on HiPNOTT, Creator’s Kid EP dropping January 26th all over the internet. I apologize in advance for the poor lighting, I’m working on that!"
It's here! Volume 1, HiPNOTT Records, Hip Hop DX, DJBooth, 2010 Takeover...it's a wrap! Watch for the Movement Fam joint on Volume 2 coming in February!

As y'all were prolly aware by now, the crew here at The Movement Fam are heavy into the glitch tunes. We're currently preparing our 'Glitchtape' project, where we go IN over various glitch tunes, predominantly by LA's The Glitch Mob.
So in our travels we linked up with dope new glitch label, Skanky Panky Records, based out of the UK. Producer William Breakspear hit us with an original glitch joint that we're going to lace for the project; and we thought y'all might want a taste.
Head over to Skanky Panky's site for a bunch of FREE original glitch downloads (left side of the page, Media section). Hit us or the guys at Skanky with your comments and feedback!
This message applies to every country in the world, not just the USA. Watch, learn and DO.
I dig this joint; I actually really like most of the leaked album too. Dope video.
The big homie outta Montreal, Malicious aka Mr Malish, hits us with his latest video for his banger 'Under The Vultures'. Love the simple steez here; mad effective.
Aight, back on our Icke shit. Me and Thrizz have been really into this stuff lately. Here's some VERY interesting videos about how freemasonry is infecting Hip Hop; they even point the finger at some of my favourite artists, which is quite a shock. Personally, I'm not sure what to believe just yet as I'm only just getting into it, but check out the videos and judge for yourselves...
Finally, it's here!!! The homie DJ Chong Wizard drops his A Tribe Called Quest tribute mixtape 'Eclectic Relaxation'. Myself, Notion and Tommy Gunnz hit 'em with our take of 'Oh My God' to wrap the tape up, so check the info after the jump for the free download...
DJ Chong Wizard hooks up with Thick Magazine & KevinNottingham.com to present Eclectic Relaxation: A Tribute to A Tribe Called Quest. This mixtape has been a work in progress since last summer when a beat contest was hosted on KevinNottingham.com for producers to recreate their favorite ATCQ tracks. Hundreds of entries were submitted and the best made the cut.
Featuring emcees such as Del The Funky Homosapien, El Da Sensei, The Lessondary (Jermiside, Tanya Morgan, etc), Frank Nitti (of Frank N Dank), Moka Only, Bootie Brown and many more, Eclectic Relaxation is sure to give Tribe fans exactly what they've been waiting for... a proper tribute!
