Show transcript0:00In the late 50s and 60s, street gangs rose up in New York City.0:04By 1970, violence and drug dealing had turned the Bronx and Brooklyn into an urban war zone.0:11Many of New York City's young population looked for a way to rise above the chaos.0:16Instead of fighting and killing one another, these revolutionaries took the negative energy prevalent in their daily life and channeled it into something positive.0:24Yo, we're here to teach you to multiply. You will learn, all you have to do is try.0:28Just hang with us and perform these rhymes, so you'll know how to do your time.0:33I'm doing all right. I'm making a rhyme, and my math gets easier all of the time.0:38I've been working really hard, working almost every day, trying to learn these math.0:42I couldn't seem to find a way. Then I heard some music with a funky beat so strong.0:47Now I know them anytime, you know I'm never wrong.0:55Well, it's prime time, high time or rhyme time. You know it's no crime, it doesn't cost a dime, and I'm so fine, so smart, so blind.1:03We're gonna multiply. Everybody now!1:06Everybody multiply, everybody multiply, multiply, multiply, everybody.1:12Sing, sing it and rhyme it.1:16Sing, sing, singing and ramming.1:22I am the one you can't defeat, staying in school, staying off of the street.1:27Multiplication sounds so sweet, singing and ramming to a serious beat.1:32Yeah!1:34Let the bass keep pumping, let the rhythm flow, rocking steady to a ting tempo.1:38I'm cruising down Multiplication Boulevard. We're learning it's fun, you know it isn't hard.1:43With a jamming beat, it's an easy road, so crank up the rock and learn it like you know.1:57It's time to go, one thing is clear.
