BBOY MOUSE – ZULU NATION ANNIVERSARY 2015
Culture
The School of Hip Hop was founded in 2013 and based in Hackney, East London this amazing educational programme helps to empower and educate our young people through the power of Hip-Hop.
Take a look and a listen to this short track by our homie Fdot1, one of the people behind this great social and educational project.
Lyrics
In the classroom it is an inescapable fact
That every kid has to remember educational facts
But no matter how the teacher tries to do it
Some kids would always rather listen to music
Before the internet or even paper was born
Knowledge was stored in the form of song
And the ease of the method is still clearly shown
Rapping along to the tunes we play on our phone
So it’s more common sense than complete revolution
To think this way for our solution:
Using music for remembering facts
That’s the basic idea behind revision raps
It’s not surprising that rhymescheme and melody
Should enable words to remain in your memory
See rhyme attracts the ear and this is hopefully
Why right now you’re listening more closely
And the process becomes even more actively rewarding
If you learn to do your own writing and recording
This is why we create revision raps
Through real world programming and internet apps
If you want the proof of why to try this
It’s relevant to the youth and our devices
So give us your support to make this happen
Because the world is more fun when its enacted through rapping
