I find myself looking at kids shows more often than I did when my first born, Elijah was young. My youngest daughter, Sakyiah LOVES the Yo Gabba Gabbas & Hip Hop Harrys of today. There are plenty of kid shows who use hip hop to catch the attention of our children. I think they are pretty neat. One thing missing from a GREAT hip hop kids show is a creator who actually knows hip hop. ( pointing to myself as i type this)
Now, kids need to learn more than just their ABC's & 123's. There are so many things that kids ages 2-8 can learn from hip hop kids shows other than how to rap or dance to a beat. Some of these shows need to take the kids on an adventure. There a bunch of issues going on in the world that we as parents need to bring to our kid's attention. So I am thinking about creating a kids show titled "Zoon Tunez."
Zoo Tunez is about certain animals in the New York Zoo who have special powers. There is a lion, an ape, an elephant & some monkeys who have the ability to transform to a hip hop group when no one is around.. Only a certain group of kids know the secrets of these zoo animals. Now, every episode, Zoo Tunez & the kids help out other children who are in need pertaining to school work, chores, personal issues,etc. At the end of each episode, the Zoo Tunez perform a hip hop song to sum up their adventure(written & produced by me of course).
Now this is just an idea. I''m gonna do more research on the project, but I'm definitely making it a priority in 2012. Stay tune..#Go Live
