Rappers surprise Atlanta students

Rappers from Soul Food Cypher showed up at the Atlanta elementary school to celebrate Acts of Kindness Week.

Dozens of students at an Atlanta elementary school were treated to a big musical surprise on Monday.

Local rappers from Soul Food Cypher showed up at Sarah Smith Elementary School to celebrate Acts of Kindness Week.

Each rapper greeted students with a verse complimenting them on everything from their clothes to their personality and offered other words of positive affirmation.

"We like to use words of affirmation as a positive tool so that individuals can learn from it," rapper Micha Brown said. "We like to tell people ‘Hey, you are amazing,’ but we do it in a rap form - in a freestyle form - and it always goes over amazing." 

School officials hope the affirmations will have a positive impact on the students for the rest of the semester.
