Miami, Florida rapper/producer Big G has joined the Hiphop and Books Coalition.
Big G believes that the entertainment industry can do to help encourage reading and staying in school by starting and promoting more projects like Hiphop and Books. He also believes the media can do much to promote more positive opportunities for kids.
So out of all the organizations he could allign himself with, why Hiphop and Books? Big G answers this way: “Hiphop and Books can take out the negative side and stop all the negative views on music nowadays and show a more positive side to the media. We should take away all the talks about hoes, drugs and alcohol and change it to picking up a book reading and going to school. It can help lower drop out rates alot because kids are influenced by what they hear and see in songs and videos, so if they hear songs about reading books and getting an education to make good money then they would want to do just that, so this project and more positive projects are a great thing for the entertainment industry and the world.”
