Flobots, a funky six member hip-hop group from Denver, CO is making waves in the underground music scene, with their killer line-up (viola, guitar, bass, drums, and two smokin MCs) mixed with socially conscious songs. But before you think they’re just another activist band with a message to drill into you, you’ve got to hear their tracks. We haven’t heard anything this musically innovative in a long time.
Last week, Celebs Gone Good joined some of rap and R&B’s most influential artists – like T.I., Ciara, and Lil’ Mama – in Philadelphia. But comparing bling wasn’t on the agenda. Instead, the stars came together to inspire young people to register to vote and to be more involved with the Presidential primaries and upcoming November election.

There were a lot of students in my school who wanted to become involved in some type of activity but could not find a club or sport that fit their interests. I wanted to start some type of club or team for students who did not fit the mold of alternative activities. I decided that dance was a fairly popular activity that many of my friends and other students in the school would be interested in. I asked one of my teachers if she would be interested in advising the team and she agreed.

The Fab4 Hip Hoppers is a group of four smart kids who want to teach other kids how to dance and sing. We want to improve our community and the way we talk to each other. We want to bring the shy kids out so they won't think they're alone, and so we can teach them that they always have someone to come to. It's a way to get exercise out of fun, and it calms you down.

My name is Syreeta Gates, I am 19 years old from Jamaica, Queens, and am in the process of becoming a Team Revolution fellow. To become a fellow there are a number of things that have to be completed. The goal of becoming a fellow is to be a Social Entrepreneur, Expansion Leader or a Program Director. I want to change history with the organization. I currently completed their fashion business program in which we work with POLO Ralph Lauren. For my community service project I am doing a “Team Rev’s Hip Hop LIFE” Project.
