Russell Simmons is doing what he can to contribute to the Occupy Wall Street movement.

In a recent interview with Billboard.biz, the business mogul says he's been in talks with artists who will be recording OWS inspired songs.

"There's a lot of music coming. I don't want to say who until they're dropping these bombs," he said. "These are artists I'm aware of that I pushed to do it, supported their efforts to do it, told them why it was important, briefed them on the demands of the protestors. There'll be a protest song that goes with Occupy Wall Street. I promise you that. Me and you, promise."

Simmons added that there is also an OWS concert also in the works.

"We are definitely discussing it. We're definitely working for permits. We're definitely looking to make a huge impact. We're actively working for permits. We'll have one in our hands soon."

Good to see Uncle Rush lending a hand.
