Conscious hip-hop can increase self-esteem in marginalized people. Through the outpouring of authentic self-expression the artist and supporters embrace colloquialism, and cultural identity. Dialogue and language are important to culture and should not be labeled as substandard and non-significant. It’s time for teachers to incorporate a culturally responsive pedagogy to embrace ethnic and cultural differences within classrooms. The use of hip-hop flow within a classroom is a way for students to embrace self and display authentic self to others without shame or having the desire to stray away from identity due to shame applied to cultural identity by the educators and society. Our students all across the globe need to heal self and love self authentically. All Languages and Cultural Identities Matter!!!
