Our Story
God Over Money. AOmega. Hog Mob.
Are you a fan of Bizzle, Lavoisier or Sevin? Do you believe that positive music can create a culture of change? Are you tired of music and imagery filled with death, violence, and degradation? Do you want to see Hip-Hop take a turn for the better? Well then, let's DO something about it! Here's the truth: Good media costs money (mulah, dinero, coin, scratch, paper, guap, etc ). Your favorite movie, album, or TV show was brought to life by a bunch of talented people using expensive equipment, software, and manpower. Money cannot buy you love. Money cannot buy you happiness. Money can't even buy you talent. BUT money can be a vehicle to get what you're passionate about out to the masses.
The Impact
The 'This Ain't Love' Project featuring God Over Money recording artist, Bizzle, AOmega Global Military recording artist , Lavoisier, and Hog Mob artist, Sevin aims to fund and produce a high-quality music video and marketing campaign for the single "This Ain't Love" off the highly anticipated debut album, Tough Love & Parables by Bizzle, which was independently released June 21st and quickly reached #7 on the Itunes Music Charts in less than 24 hours. While cracking Itune's Top Ten is no small feat for any artist, let alone an independent with no major label backing, we want to push the envelope further and get a "This Ain't Love" music video into rotation on major music networks across the globe. Why? We feel strongly about this because we believe in the message of this music and its ability to effect lives and create meaningful change in Hip-Hop music and culture. It's time to take a stand against the violent, misogynistic, material-obsessed, and over-sexed themes of today's rap music. It's time to show the world what real love is. Please support the "This Ain't Love" God Over Money/AOmega/HogMob Movement and spread the word. Phase One has begun.
What We Need & What You Get
We need a minimum of $4000. This will cover:
Travel & Lodging- Bizzle, Lavoisier, & Sevin literally reside on opposite ends of the U.S. In order to shoot a video, the Artists and Crew need to be in one place! The video shoot will take place in NYC at the end of July 2011.
Director's fee- Quality Ain't Cheap. We believe the world needs music like "This Ain't Love" and we want the video to be able to stand toe-to-toe with everything out there. Our Director & Crew are super talented and their fee covers the expenses of shooting & editing "This Ain't Love" with industry standard equipment and software.
Promotion- Advertising costs precious time and money. The creation and production of merchandise such as CD's, DVD's, Clothing, Posters, Fliers, etc. are very expensive, not to mention being a blessing to the talented individuals who design our artwork, manage our websites, and spend countless hours on the telephone and computer trying to get our media into the mainstream. These services and people make what we do possible.
