David Banner is set to release his new project, Sex, Drugs, and video Games, on May 22, 2012. In the words of Banner, the 2M1 movement was brought about to "START CONTROLLING OUR OWN MUSIC, MOVIES, AND CONTENT... PERIOD! WE ARE NOT SIMPLY CHARACTERS IN A VIDEO GAME being controlled by the invisible hand. Once the goal is met, I’m going to shoot a movie that will drop May 22, 2013, and a portion will go to charity." He is asking for 2,000,000 fans to donate at least $1 to the 2M1 Movement.
