Dr. Jason Rawls is an Assistant Professor of Hip Hop at The Ohio State University.
He found hip-hop growing up on the south side of Columbus. It was more than just the sound that spoke to him. In hip-hop, young Jason found his passion and his future.
“I realized that I could use that to build strong relationships with them,” said Rawls. “Once I realized that, I knew from there that I could combine these two and make something new and bring that to the masses and I think that’s what’s so exciting. That’s what we get excited about because we get to bring this to everyone who may not have experienced it.”
During the spring semester, ABC6 experienced classwork with Rawls’ students, as they stepped away from their desks to learn the art of b-boying, or breakdancing. They gathered in a circle to observe, learn, and try some moves of their own.
