Gratitude to @illijahbeats for coming to Day 3 of our F.O.R. Youth Winter Hip Hop Camp in Los Angeles!

Illijah Beats is a talented DJ, music producer & beat maker, drummer, and breaker! He continues to pour into his own community as a mentor and educator with @noeasypropsorg and @thecapocenter! 👏🏽

In session 1, the youth learned how to play and keep rhythm on a drum pad✨️

In session 2, they worked together to come up with words that rhymed and individually created their own lyrics - Some rapped it, and some chose to read it out ✍️🏿✍️🏾✍️🏼

We love to get some movement at the end of out session and we were lucky to have Nono teach us all a house dance combo!❤️‍🔥

This weekend helping us style our students for their photoshoots and sharing his knowledge on fashion and style is Jules Mckelvey.

Jules’ rhythmic dance moves tell the story of an energetic artist whose spirit and determination
spark his creativity. In 2018, the Philadelphia, PA native danced his way to Hollywood where he
relocated after a great performance career at Walt Disney World. Jules graced the stage in some of Disney’s most popular shows such as The Lion King and Bollywood Beats at the Animal Kingdom. He also performed in countless Disney parades as well as the 2019 MTV Movie & TV Awards to honor Dwayne “the Rock” Johnson.

“The expressiveness of dance, whether I’m training for a show or doing random freestyle moves, is my love language,” said Jules who can learn just about any dance routine in a
fast-paced environment.

With more than a decade of hard work and dedication to the arts, his dance roots began in hip-hop culture, and have expanded throughout the years into the fashion world. Jules has worked
and styled some of the latest music videos and commercials. Having worked with artists such as
Moneybagg Yo, MGK, Tee Grizzly, and Lana Del Rey to name a few. Fashion is so important and it's
the first glance at our personalities said Jules!
