Rapper MC Lars has a special message for teen writers and artists

Rapper MC Lars has a special message for teen writers and artists

By on June 21st, 2012

A few weeks ago, talented teens from across the country took over Carnegie Hall (we told you about it here and here and here!) to celebrate their Scholastic Art & Writing Awards. Among the many celebrities there, one in particular did something pretty amazing for the teen winners: rapper MC Lars, who created and performed an incredible video celebrating the winners AND wrote them a special message.

He told them in a recent email:

“To all of the students who made it to Carnegie, it was great seeing and performing for you. It was awesome speaking with some of you and your creativity is inspirational and amazing. To those of you who couldn’t make it, here’s a private link to my new video ‘Flow Like Poe’ which we premiered at the event. We made this video specifically for the event to honor of all of your awesome artistic achievements. We will be releasing it worldwide next week but we wanted to offer this sneak peak especially for you as a thank you for all of your hard work.  High fives to all of you, have an awesome summer!
- MC LARS”

Want to see the video?

Thanks, MC Lars! And congrats again to the 2012 Scholastic Art & Writing Awards winners!
