The Problem

Hip Hop Saved My Life is a motivational seminar series that combines autobiographical narrations of Rahfeal Gordon’s childhood hardships with Hip Hop lyrics and music vignettes, which proved influential in his will to overcome adversity. “The culture of Hip Hop is a source of motivation. It tells the story of inner-city life. I want to make people aware of the motivation and innovation that exists within the culture by sharing my story. Hip Hop is My Life, My Music, and My Motivation.” Mr. Rahfael “Infinite” Gordon is setting a precedent as the archetype for “Hip Hop Motivational Speaking”. In his inspirational motivational seminars, Hip Hop Saved My Life, Rahfeal conveys how he found power within Hip Hop lyrics that helped make it possible for him to develop the tools necessary to build character, self-esteem and the drive to become a successful entrepreneur. Rahfeal speaks with exacting testimony about his own life accounts, while encouraging individuals to dream, believe and ultimately realize their true desires and talents. Mirroring the energy and passion that is Hip Hop, Rahfeal has discovered a new avenue of providing hope.
