Just came back from the lunch room and saw the story on the front page of 'The Argus' (sp?)...good read, good shit Kontac...good to see rappers in a positive light
Congrats Kontac, good reads. Didnt know your a teacher also. Much respect. Glad the media is showing something positive for once, even though if you look to the right of your article in breaking news its all bad.

just to play the critics advocate...Being that you seem to be a better educator than rapper and you are a teacher, would you consider yourself a rapper that educates the youth or a professional teacher that still raps? I'll be the first to say and in no way is this a diss, I respect you more as a teacher... because that means your making a sacrifice and not trying to use the kids a claim to fame.
A well put together article. I hope it sheds some light to those who stereotype rap as just selling drugs, gangbanging and fuckin hoes n calling them bitches....
Congrats on raising over 10k to schools that could really use any money. I read an article last week where the state wants to cut 5 billion from education alone.

I've been teaching for 8 years rapping since 1990 putting tapes and cds since 1993,I droped a kids cd Learning In Motion sold over 5,000 units didn't reach out for any press XXL did a interview with me for that one, all press I've been getting for the Stay In School has came to me,I put my album on hold for 4 years to do the kids stuff not for fame but cause it was the right thing to do,I guess I'm a teacher who still enjoys rapping hope that answers your questions if your question. If there was no press at all I would still be doing stuff for the kids and my own music. Always, have and always will those that really know me know I xame into the game with 2 live crew touring with them doing songs with them learned a lot seen a lot. And on a side note I have not made a dime off the kids stuff matter fact I spent over $4,000 of my own money for various things with the kids project
Congrats on that Kontac!! Being noticed for doing something positive with the kids and for the communtiy....Keep up the good work cause its paying off!!!
