I decided to join Andre's Hip Hop and R & B culture and was really impressed! Andre is simply knowledgeable about what he teaches which I'm sure you'll never be disappointed. It thought I knew some, but he blessed me with a lot of new stuff. The class has helped me appreciate the history behind my favorite kind of music. Thank you so much, and look forward to our next chat!
