Hosted by DJ Reddy Rock. About “THE PLEDGE” mixtape:

Hip-Hop can either be used as a tool or a weapon.

The Black Youth Project (BYP) and Power of Purpose, Inc. (POP) are joining forces to provide a platform for those who would like to use Hip-Hop as a tool.

The Pledge Mixtape is a 14-song CD comprised of songs from various local artists taking back their communal power through music.

Check out these essential tracks below. And remember to take the BYP Action Pledge, and stand with Black Youth against the inequality and injustice that too often define our world.
