Part of this years Persuaders Academy's week of learning has involved writing, team work, following directions, and of course fun! These young men have written and recorded a POSITIVE Rap Song with a producer and learned how to mix and edit it. Today they learned about video production and actually got the chance to shoot a video for their song! The song and video are in their final stages and will be released at the completion ceremony next Saturday! Be sure to be on the look out and celebrate these guys for their accomplishment!
