Imagine a modern day take on the hit musical Hamilton mixed with the TV series The Get Down
but set in Baltimore in the 90s and incorporating classic 90s rap hits from Wu-Tang, The
Notorious B.I.G., 2PAC and LL Cool J. The students of New Song Academy will rap their way
through a summer day as they go on a hunt for a rare copy of the famous Raekwon album. Only
10,000 cassettes were printed guaranteeing it would only fall into the hands of the most devoted
Raekwon/Wu-Tang fans. The search for the purple tape ends up being a lesson in Hip Hop
History as the students realize the culture of Hip Hop is a way of living. This show is both an
educational partnership along with heartwarming hip-hop entertainment.
