It seems the education system remains locked into the work of Kendrick Lamar, discovering new ways to incorporate his talented offerings. As we know, New Jersey High School found endless inspiration behind the project To Pimp A Butterfly, arranging sessions that deeply interpreted the intelligent wordplay.

It comes as no surprise therefore, that Kendrick’s craft is forming the basis of a scholarship, taking directions to a whole new level. The program titled “Be Alright” has been launched by Philadelphia’s Oogee Woogee organization  and has an exciting way of reaching fresh talent.

Offering $1500 to a lucky student, the association is challenging individuals to create a three minute video, outlining the positivity that lies within hip-hop. Of course viewers will be central to this contest, having the option to select their favorite candidate.

With the program already set to launch nationally, we look forward to seeing great results in the future.

Education is something LeBron James caringly promotes, as he channels his attentions towards making a difference. There is nothing more encouraging than seeing an idolized sports player inspiring the youth, and this time he has a great reward in mind.

A six year mentoring program held by the LeBron James Family Foundation is a subject of attraction, since completion of the program, actually promises a FREE scholarship.
Supported by the University of Akron, the NBA stars I Promise course is likely to help shape the futures of many.

Up to 2,000 children are set to benefit from this platform, and we are guessing there will be many ready to attend. Well, who wouldn’t want the chance to enter college for free?

We look forward to hearing positive feedback in the time ahead.
