Don’t Send SIMP to the Grammy’s; Send Support to Haiti

Posted by Duran in News | January 17th, 2010

I have decided to cut the “Send SIMP to the Grammy’s Campaign” short. This however is not an admission of defeat, it is merely a change in game plan. All the money pledged will not be taken from your bank accounts and we are encouraging you to donate the amount you pledged to Haiti. There will be plenty of time to get to The Grammy’s. It is an honor just to have been afforded the opportunity, which is already a leg up on a lot of other indie rappers. There are so many things that I want to do with this opportunity but its important that I don’t put the cart before the horse. Besides…I am grateful for the support I have received and what better way to show my gratitude than to “Pay it Forward” to those in need of the same? (For more info on how to donate read below)

Thank You All,

SIMP
