(AllHipHop News) Russell Simmons, Jasiri X and a variety of other rappers are supporting a new initiative aimed at encouraging young people to vote this Tuesday (November 6).

Simmons and company have endorsed the “Hoodie Vote,” which is encouraging young people to wear their hoodies to the polling booths, in honor of slain teenager Trayvon Martin.

Over 50 college campuses and people in dozens of cities nationwide are taking part in the initiative, which was cofounded by Trell Thomas.

“It’s not about capitalizing on something tragic, we want to turn tragedy into triumph,” said Thomas, who is also the national coordinator. “It’s another opportunity to send a message that while some thought we were robbing, killing, stealing, and looking “suspicious” in our hoodies, we are out here working, making a difference, and changing the world in our hoodies.”

Thomas said that the organization’s goal is to get up to 1 million people to wear their hoodies to show solidarity in the elections on Tuesday.

Other people who’ve endorsed the “Hoodie Vote” include Jasmine Sanders, legendary activist Dick Gregory, rapper Lil B and veteran air personality DJ Greg Street.

The initiate is asking voters to take pictures of themselves at the voting booths and post them to social media using #HoodieVote.

Life has been and will be exactly what you make it! Start today and make it great! Nothing can stop you but you!

Hip-Hop Rumors: Rick Ross and Floyd Mayweather – A Dynamic Duo?

50 Cent and Floyd have broken up for sure. Last night, 50 Cent went IN on Floyd in every way under the sun. It still reeks of a press stunt to me, but he was levying some zingers against his former friend. Well, he also “promoted” the hell out of several fights he wanted to push Floyd’s way, which I find funny. Why? Because, even though 50 Cent is a rider, the fights he was proposing seem to lean against his own! Floyd still going to beat just about anybody these days. There’s Manny and thats about it. ANYWAY, the point is…this remains interesting. Rumor has it Floyd and Rick Ross have been in some sort of conversation about teaming up. Rick Ross originally rapped “that Mayweather money look funny in the light” back in the day when they alleged Floyd was making it rain with fake bills. But, recently, he said a different rap that I cannot recall mentioning Floyd in a generic, non-confrontational way. So, word is, Rick is on the Money Team. What do you think? Isn’t this weird? Rozay was once cool with Manny Pacquiao and now he’s possibly down with Floyd? 50 Cent was down with Floyd and now he’s down with Manny Pacquiao? What is this? Musical Friends?

(AllHipHop News) Port Arthur, Texas rapper Bun B is teaming with BlackCelebrityGiving.com, to raise shoes for those in need this winter.

Bun B and BCG are heading up “The Sole Drive,” with the aim of collecting 20,000 pairs of shoes to be donated to 20 different organizations, around the world.

BCG released some stats from the EPA, which revealed that over 790,000 tons of footwear and apparel were thrown away in 2010.

“As much as I love shoes, it doesn’t hold a candle to the love I have for the people of this world, especially those who can’t necessarily help themselves,” Bun B stated. “Partnering with Sole Drive makes nothing but good sense to me. I’m proud to be a part of this movement.”

Fans who wish to help Bun B reach the goal of 20,000 shoes can drop off pairs at the North and South side locations of SF2, a popular retailer in Houston.
