“NOT ONLY DOES MY SON THINK MALIK IS THE COOLEST GUY EVER, BUT AS PARENTS WE HAVE SEEN MORE CONFIDENCE IN HIS WRITTEN LANGUAGE SKILLS AS WELL AS CREATIVITY AND SELF ESTEEM. IT IS CLEAR THAT MALIK IS TRULY INVESTED AND REALLY CARES ABOUT HIS STUDENTS.”
Stephanie Ojo - Parent of 8yr old student
Finding a constructive and engaging outlet for children can be a challenge. SEL HIP-HOP provides a high energy and empowering alternative to video games and social media through a creativity based curriculum, empowering students to live in full expression of their most authentic selves.
With Malik LovesYall (Founder) as a guide and mentor, children learn skills associated with self-regulation, literacy, communication and critical thinking in a fun and meaningful way.
THE WHY
The SEL HIP-HOP curriculum features a series of specialized courses designed to use Hip-Hop music as a means to inspire free expression, self-discovery, confidence and community building.
With four distinct courses diving into songwriting, music production, audio engineering and performance, SEL HIP-HOP supports children and young adults alike in discovering the value of their voice through rhythm, rhyme, beats and life.

Everybody has the right to live life in full expression of their most authentic selves.
