What is RapVS.AI?

It is an innovative application of AI technology using the cultural medium of music, specifically the art of rap, to inspire communities to explore pathways of entrepreneurship (and intrapreneurship) with their innate human creativity coupled with generative AI.

Powered by Microsoft SemanticKernel and the re-imagination of Hajj Flemings and Cynthia Respert, it is a fusion of culture, hip hop, and tech.

The vision is to reimagine computer science for underrepresented communities through the vehicle of AI. We serve HBCUs, PWIs, and avid hip-hop listeners and inspire them to build something and not get left behind in this rapidly evolving industry where underserved communities are often consumers versus builders. Live events and immersive experiences serve as the gateway to transformative educational programming, mentorship and up-skilling opportunities to build a sustainable, diverse creator pipeline in the AI space.
