Hip Hop Helps Haiti

Hip Hop has responded. Too many tribute songs, benefits and donations to name -- and I'm NOT complaining... Enough has been written about the amazing results of the Hope For Haiti Now benefit organized by actor George Clooney, so I will focus on some of the more obscure efforts:

I. "Hip Hop Helps Haiti" - hosted by The Aphilliates' DJ Ace McClowd; organized and sponsored by HipHopDX

II. Duck Down Records iTunes Sales Donated to Yele for the Haiti Relief Effort

III. Joell Ortiz - "Exhibit H(aiti)"

Props to 2DopeBoyz for covering it all in real time.

To donate, SMS text "HAITI" to 90999 to donate $10 to Red Cross relief efforts; SMS text "YELE" to 501501 to Donate $5 to Yele Haiti's Earthquake Relief efforts.
