Ill Moves Heads for a Long Nap

I'm not very happy to report that I'm going to have to put Ill Moves to the side for awhile.

Though I haven't been doing much posting, I have been able to keep a steady stream of relevant links coming by using the post to blog service at Delicious.  Unfortunately, since their recent redesign, that's not working for me and none of the workarounds people have suggested have worked.

If I wasn't overwhelmed by my other responsibilities, the ones that pay the bills, I'd be gathering the links manually but I just can't do that.

But I would wake the blog up if you're a blogger who wants a supportive platform.

If that's the case, please write me at:
clyde(at)prohiphop(dot)com

And if you have pr to send, from press releases to music to video links, please send them to:
hiphoppress(at)netweed(dot)com

Whatever you do, don't send the same promo mail to both addresses.  That would come under the "not a good look" category.
