How Hip Hop Education Was Started
In 2004 President/Co-Founder Ben Wiggins heard a little boy about 11 years old
say to a little girl about 9 years "B.... get on my bike"...............well these are words
from a rap song that says "B... get in my car". Ben was so shocked by what the little
boy had said that he wanted to make a difference in the music our youth were
listening to. With this weighing heavy on his mind he called upon his sister
CEO/Co-Founder Sabrina Wiggins to tell her about what the little boy had said and
how he wanted to make a difference and Sabrina said she would support him 100
percent. He came up with the name Hip Hop Education and from that point on it
was a partnership between a brother and sister to not only make a difference in the
music but in the lives of our youth.
