This is what makes him different from most hip-hop artist. He is Will Smith with the ear of black radio & the hood. Finally a Hip Hop artist pushing education, and not acting like it’s lame to go to school and do what you’re suppose to do. For the past several years it seems the schooling of hip hop was selling dope. If you don’t sell dope you aint hip-hop. Glad to see that’s changing! Now if we can get radio stations to play conscience and street hip-hop we can really make some noise. Give people a choice do force the negativity down our throats.

good,

please people dont bring the conscious hiphop message in here, even gangster rappers like snoop also help out and drive positive messages like his tryna do.

many rappers out there, gangsta or not do just as much or more than Kanye, so whilst this is commemndable by Kanye, its nothing more than what he and fellow rappers should be doing in the first place given there influence,

welldone Kanye, however you are still gay

I just thing its funny that he is involved in something promoting education when his biggest selling album is titled college dropout.

Plus you can’t really tell what his real intentions are because people who make more than $300,000 a year are advised by their financial advisors to invest either their money towards some type of volunteering work, it helps them with TAX BREAKS. For all I know Kanye may really be interested in improving the education americas minority children are getting but at the end of the day is it about the kids or about the MONEY- and that goes for MOST celebrities doing this sort of thing ESPECIALLY RAPPERS.
