About This Lesson
Lil Jamal fell down and was very sad. He was having a bad day and he didn't feel like getting back up. He laid on the ground and his self talk was negative. He had other problems at home and at school and he just felt like giving up. Little did he know that Mr. O the hip hop teacher was driving through the neighborhood that day and when he noticed the boy on the ground looking down, he stopped his car and walked over to him. Mr. O said to his self "I have to encourage the little homey. I can't let him have a negative attitude in life, I have to at least drop some wisdom on him and let him know that you have to be optimistic and have positive self talk.
So Mr. O got out of the car, walked over to Lil Jamal and Lil Jamal took a liking to him right away because he could tell that he cared, but he was also kind of funny and everything that he said rhymed. When Mr. O finished rapping to him, he felt better. Lil Jamal was so inspired. He said to himself "Whenever I fall down, I might cry, but sooner or later I will brush my self off, shake it off, get back up and keep on pushing!"
