They Run This Town!!!

Filed under: PS22 Chorus

It's a new school year - and new members!

Under the direction of Mr. B, check out (above) our beloved P.S. 22 Chorus doing their take on the Kanye, Rihanna, Jay-Z song. Yes, they made it kiddie-friendly!

Great job!

      Hmm, suspicious.. Perez actually showing love for people of color.. very suspicious.. what are you up to mr racist?! I guess since befriending justin bieber and learning that it's COOL when you love people of color that you're changing a new leaf?!

    15. 15

      NO SURE WHY THESE FUKTARDS R EDITING MY COMMENTS DAMMIT



    16. 16

      those kids are so talented. if they put a whole musical together, i'd pay to see it. they're fucking fantastic.



    17. 17

      Great! Love the kid who did the rap. I'm a sucker for videos like these.



    18. 18

      I hope these teachers got permission for these kids to be put up on the net. At the school I teach at, you can get into trouble as many parents do not want their children photographed or videotaped without their permission.



    19. 19

      Love these kids and the instructor :) smiles!!!



    20. 20

      its disturbing to see kids singing a song which promotes violence.



    21. 21

      Yes. Let's have our kids grow up to idolize Kanye and Jay-Z. Such great role models. We're in a sorry sad state of affairs here with our education. Now you know why.

      mmm mmmm mmm Barak Hussein Obama!!!!!!

      Re: rejoyce2 – AGREED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1



    23. 23

      Re: Zombie Hitler – LMAO@ drive in theater forehead….

      Seriously though people need to calm the fuck down saying stuff like "Ohh what good role models, way too teach the kids about violence.." Clearly anyone can see they are just having a good time and they all look like a good bunch, you should be happy they are in there singing and not out dealing crack and hangin with bangers..and don't laugh, they may only be 8 or 9 but they are catchin them young these days.

      But I gotta agree with Zombie Hitler…not a good song choice.



    24. 24

      they're so cute. (:



    25. 25

      These kids did great I don't know why people are getting so political over it. They're just having fun like a lot of us do in our lives people just need to chill out.



    26. 26

      Re: rejoyce2 – Because lord knows they don't hear this music at home in it's uncensored version or on the radio.



    27. 27

      listen everyone i thr kids did great and it shows to me tht music is eveything and tht kids need music in thiere life Amazing Job p.s 22 chior



    28. 28

      these kids are so cute. haha



    29. 29

      OK, finally some US school is teaching the kids about music, the US is so behind about everything.
      Kids must learn about music and languages, kids in Europe speak 3 languages by the age of 9, here in the US they don't even know who was the 34 president of the US.
      What a shame!!!!



    30. 30

      these kids are really talented and i always enjoy listening to them and watching them. what the teacher does is so inspirational, you can tell the kids are really into this.



    31. 31

      It's been a while. I leave for a few and come back to a room full of idiots. Seems that u guys multiply. I will agree with the sane in here about the choice of music. But then again how many of you find it cute when a child is singing an Elvis song or that 'yummy yummy yummy i got love in my tummy' Because we all know those songs are innocent. STFU. They're singing songs. Which by the way, same songs you'd hear in Kids Bop. I doubt that this music teacher would not have given thought to the music he chose and/or edited it. You people are so high and mighty that u don't realize when ur being pompous fools. They're enjoying themselves. Innocent fun to bring out innocent smiles from jaded and lost innocence from us adults. GROW UP



    32. 32

      If I were a parent of one of these kids I'd sue the hell out this school and this gay instructor!

      All you have to do is read the responses that are positive to know how much trouble this country is in!

      I live here in NYC with these kids and thankfully they have this outlet; without it they would be alot worse off. For all of you in middle america who pass judgement back off. Walk a mile in your cow manure before you pass judgement on kids trying to have some honest downtime. You should be ashamed of yourself. These kids rocked it and they get whats going on around them even though they have no control.



    35. 35

      Seriously they always put a smile on my face!

      & my god choir class does not determine how they do in other educational classes
      & everybody get over the whole kanye ordeal!



    36. 36

      mhm interesting.



    37. 37

      THESE KIDS ARE AMAZING!!! Mr. B is such an incredible choir director. He really brings the talent out in these kids. We need more choir directors like him.



    38. 38

      This kids are so awesome! The people making these absurd comments are ignorant and ridiculous. There's absolutely nothing wrong with these kids singing today's most popular songs, and they're all obviously having the best time.



    39. 39

      Even if clean, the sound doesn't seem appropriate for kids this young.



    40. 40

      I just love these kids. they melt my frozen heart just a little and make me feel just a little - oh damn you cute and sweet children you weaken me so. I just like that they don't seem self conscious like I prob did at that age. it's heart warming.



    41. 41

      awesome!!!



    42. 42

      Awesome job! :D It's nice to see young kids interested in after school activities instead of just playing video games or watching T.V.

      Those kids did a great job! Especially the soloist, she was wonderful!



    44. 44

      Love this, back off Kanye. We all make mistakes.



    45. 45

      I gotta say it Perez, these PS22 posts have some to be my favorites.

      The kids are great and it's great of you to promote them.



    46. 46

      errrr. *come* to be my favorites



    47. 47

      I LOVE these kids! They are so adorable!! Can't get enough of them.



    48. 48

      *Love* these kids. They do such a great job and you can tell they absolutely love music and love what they are doing. It is so neat to watch their happiness and their talent. Music inspires children and bravo to this teacher for cultivating the love of music.



    49. 49

      WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?!?!?!?!? where the duck is the love. its not about kanye or rihanna,perez or whatever..its about the talent these kids possess. GET A LIFE LOSERS CAUSE THESE KIDS ARE AWESOME!!! so damn AWESOME!!!



    50. 50

      Way to go kids!! That was GREAT! Yellow Shirt Boy In the front FELT that song!
      The expression, and the seemingly "free" emotions that they were displaying was really cool to see!



    51. 51

    52. 52

    54. 54

      The lead singer will be out on the corner turning tricks by noon. The rest of these street kids will be dead, drugged or living in the streets by the time they are 11!



    55. 55

      Re: AudreyArellano – You are pathetic…people like you with you sad negative attitudes make me sick



    56. 56

      O.M.G!!! Love it! What a wonderful and talented teacher to bring such enthusiasm and life to his classroom. The kids are great and they look like they're having so much fun. Very talented soloists too!



    57. 57

      Re: AudreyArellano – You must be so unhappy with your life to knock these great kids. I'm so sorry for you!

      Re: silver bunnies – true true.
      at least they changed the words and only sang certain parts of the song tho. . . it's not as bad as it woulda been with the original song. this guy's doin a good thing for his community

      Re: whitecheddar33 –
      that "gay instuctor " is an amazing teacher i wish i had a teacher like him when i was in school because then i would have stayed in school. he inspires these kids to do more than what they think they can do. i seen a big change in my sister since she joined ps 22 chorus i think he is doing a great job!!!!!
