Hip Hop Congress

Sean Kingston’s new single “Gotta Move Faster” helps children around the world to have access to technology. [Video]

Granted you normally wouldn’t see an artist of popularity on a site such as Hip Hop Congress, but from the information I got from my boy Ralph, Sean Kingston is not just another up and comer but already pumping resources back into his community. The video below looks like a blatant Intel commercial (umm it is…) but read what they are doing with profits and proceeds. “Philantrapenuer” is my new favorite made up word.

Sean Kingston, the 17-year old platinum selling music artist best known for his hit single “Beautiful Girls” and recent chart-toppers “Take You There” and “Me Love,” has just released a new Internet-only single “Gotta Move Faster” on iTunes.

Directed by Lil’ X (Usher, Faith Evans), the video gives an exciting, behind-the-scenes look at Sean’s life as a top-selling artist and how he uses technology to make music and stay connected with his fans.

The elegant use of Intel branded-entertainment made the video clip possible and Intel is donating its profits from sales of the new single and ringtones to the Computer Clubhouse Network, an after school technology-learning program that enables youth in underserved communities to acquire tools necessary for personal and professional success.

The Intel Computer Clubhouse Network currently supports over 100 Computer Clubhouses around the world, providing thousands of youth with access to resources, skills, and experiences to help them succeed in their careers, contribute to their communities, and lead outstanding lives.

In 1997 the Museum’s Clubhouse program won the Peter F. Drucker Award for Nonprofit Innovation , recognizing that the program has made a difference in the lives of the people it serves, and serves as a model that others can learn from.
