Imperial Stars, a self-described "hard core hip-hop band" from Orange County, Calif., picked a bad (or perfect?) place to perform their latest song, "Traffic Jam 101." The L.A. Times reports that "the band blocked the 101 Freeway in Hollywood on Tuesday morning for an impromptu concert that jammed traffic and tested the patience of commuters." Three people were under arrest, according to the California Highway Patrol. On its website, the band pledges that all the money earned from the song will be going to Homeless Children America. The website features the same truck used during the impromptu concert Tuesday morning, according to the Times.
