Global Hip Hop ambassador and #HipHopEd representative, AWKWORD, connected with Nigerian-born Canadian producer, Teck–Zilla, Nigerian songstress, Maka and French Dj J Hart to recruit an All-Star cast of emcees to join him on the “I Am,” including Latasha Alcindor (USA), Holstar (Zambia), Wakazi (Tanzania), Five Steez (Jamaica), Modenine (Nigeria), The Assembly (South Africa), and Third Eye (Malawi).

The song features 9 emcees sharing truths about their lives in their respective home countries across Africa, the Caribbean and the United States. The song will appear on AWKWORD’s 2016 EP, Mid–Flight and Best of AWKWORD mixtape, sponsored by The Hitmen (akonswils) and www.itsbizkit.com/. All proceeds from the sale of the song will go toward financing the creation of the video, so all the artists can truly show who they are and where they’re from.
