Hip-Hop pops a 'Woodie'

The C to the O and Dante Beze have been nominated for mtvU's 'Woodie' award. Their version of the VMA's.

If you are not hip to mtvU (it's only broadcast on certain college campuses) peep their broadband site Uber. My man Yomi over there has been trying to make it happen and has done an excellent job incorporating some excellent Hip-Hop programming over there.

Plus they support our events, so they get extra love.

Here is the skinny (SCR bullet time)

Mos Def 'New Orleans Dollar Day (Katrina Klap)

http://odeo.com/audio/227258/view
