Above & Beyond: The Promise of an Anthem
We’re proud of these young men!
This year All of the Above Hip Hop Academy launched our AYO (All of the Above Youth Organization) residency under the guidance and leadership of Jahshua Smith.
These talented gentlemen were commissioned by Lansing Promise to produce, write, record, and perform an anthem for the city of Lansing.
The song debuted June 9, 2022, at the Promise Gala at Lansing Lugnuts’ Jackson Field and it went hard! Shout out to The Player Music, 5am, Juice, and Devin Jones for knocking this opportunity out the park!
You made your folks and the city proud. Congrats!| Hip Hop. Education. Community. All of the Above. – Photos by Ozay Moore
