Watchiphop.com presents: “The Music Saved My Life” Music Camp and Benefit Concert Series. Hip Hop Music Channel is dedicated to teaching youth the history of modern music by showing the connection of live musicianship and current Hip Hop and Pop hits. Because of lack funding in many school systems bands have begun to disappear on school campuses.
