Our latest song, about gender equality, just hit a million views! This is our most viewed video to date. The song is called The F Word: Feminism, and teaches us that the word feminism actually refers to gender equality, contrary to what many people assume. The video was directed by well-known Bollywood Director and YouTuber Rupan Bal, and features MC SKULE and IV Green.

Among those who messaged us saying they liked the video include a leader from Amnesty International, The Daily Show‘s Roy Wood Jr., and professors from around the country. The popular online feminist community Being Feminist also published this article about Rohen and the song. Stay tuned and thank you for sharing the video!

In case you’re looking for a fun way to engage kids in a summer reading program, educational rapper MC SKULE‘s latest viral music video encourages kids to read! The song, Read with Me, parodies Walk the Moon’s hit song Shut up and Dance and has already received over 120,000 views on Facebook. The song was also performed as a part of the 2017 Liberty Fest performance in Canton. Check out the song here:

Read with Me was created in collaboration with Crissman Elementary School in Utica, Michigan. It features Anna Hilliard and IV Green – as well as the entire student body and staff members, who share our goal to inspire other kids to keep reading and learning. Laura Hamrick spent a month with the students in preparation for the song, creating props and rehearsing. Music was produced by Michael Dante, and Mixed and Mastered by Chuck Alkazian of Pearl Sound Studios. Directed by Drake Whelton. We hope you enjoy the song, and please share it with your community members.

Let’s get as many kids as possible to engage in one of the best human endeavors: reading!

What an eventful week! Our latest song, 99 Math Problems, was released 5 days ago, and has already been featured in NBC’s Local 4 News in Detroit! The song has received nearly 400,000 views on Facebook, as well as an additional 40,000 on YouTube. It has been featured on the Homepage of the National Tutoring Association, among others. It is available here for a free download, or to support the cause in the process, you can buy it on iTunes for 99 cents (Get it, 99? coincidence? I think not!).

Collaborating with Grammy Winner Chuck Alkazian, this is already MC SKULE‘s most popular song (crossing the quarter million views that Let’s Go Out and Vote received). It features Anna Hilliard and IV Green. It’s so much easier to surpass your prior work when you have a bigger, loving, SKULE family on your side – which now includes 25 of the most adorable children who were featured in the video, including their families and loved ones.

The song aims to teach students that math is something they shouldn’t be afraid of. They also shouldn’t feel bad if they make silly mistakes in math. Often times, students get discouraged because of silly mistakes they make at a young age, and then they give up on math early on in the process. As the song says, “If you get a problem wrong, don’t give up or stop yearning – because mistakes are proof that you are learning.”

Getting straight to the point, here’s the thing: We need your help. We are a non-profit, and our only revenue stream is donations. The songs cost money to produce, and we need your help to be able to continue this work. Even a small donation would go a long way. Please visit our donation page, watch the cute video of students explaining what they got out of being in the song, and please help us out in whatever way you can. There are also some cool prize options if you look at the right sidebar while you scroll down. Please feel free to reach out to us at info@skule.org with any questions, concerns, ideas, or words of support.
