This was put together as a final project for a class I had back in the day. Summer 08 I was able to work in Oakland with a youth run record label called BUMP.
At the end of the summer me and my best friends drove across the country to interview similar groups. I never got to finish the edit but since Let the Beat Build blew up (and people started clicking on this other random video) I've gotten A LOT OF LOVE. So I'm leaving it up.
Thank you so much to all of the people and orgs that opened thier doors to us! BUMP Records, Kuumba Lynx, Youth Movement Records, Vera Project, The DJ Project and to the Reynolds Scholarship for Social Entreprenuership.
