(esedaz & legaspi, 2010) THe collaboration between a counselor & teacher. Everytime Arrellano and I collaborate we get along and make great music. He is a talented artist, I really enjoy the story of the song. We made this to inspire the super scholars to graduate with pride.

I am singing the hook and love it. It was a great opportunity to get back in the studio. To do a song like this made me feel good and reflects my passion for what I do.

Enrique Gabriel & danni Boi

2nd semester was filled with sessions where danni and i would collaborate on different riffs and figure hooks out, this is footage from a late after school AAP session, where teacher and student have the opportunity to experiment with our talents to achieve a sense of mastery and or synthesis.

Mr. Legaspi, the Teacher, Danniboi, the Student, & Sal the Sudent (room 162, after school AAP 2009) We just left the barber shops back to the class and recorded a few sessions, this was my favorite from that day...with these guys I have a lotta fun making music and melodies!

Freestyle Jam Session with DanniBoi ( room 162, after school 2009) Danni and me have recorded so much footage from our jam sessions after school, too fun to collaborate and illustrates the possibilities and the power of music and education combines.

Don'tBeWackKID (danniboi and enrique gabriel freestyles, after school sessions 2009) This is fun rhyming at its finest, a cool collaboration between teacher and student. The last lines are significant,,,you gotta practice so your not wack KID!

BeastieBoys Instrumental (cuzin of death 2008) Mixtape, just felt like saying a few pieces of thought to roc'...the beat is so addictive lyrics are random poetic expression of interpretation on acing the scene...my favorite part was getting loose on the backend of the cut. Make music, have fun...an academic artist project...first verse written, second verse obvious freestylin'

DanniBoi & I, (Jam out session 2009) the lost tapes, before we made the final howcome we were playing with all kinds of lyrics, this is a release of an exclusive live version of howcome and the melodies played with to make the final cut. Enrique Gabriel

Freestyle Verse, MJ Tribute (Nato Instrumental, 2009 Lyrics freestyled by Enrique Gabriel, the Teacher, borrowed lyric from man in the mirror, mj) Mahal kita MJ!
