When you think of hip-hop music, you think of a rapper spitting rhymes at godspeed. Only this time, technology is doing the talking (Read: rapping).
In what may seem like a first, a group of seven members based in New South Wales have composed a song video that features two of its non-verbal artists using technology to rap their song.
MC Jaco (Jacob Hughes) and The King (Robert King) wrote verses by programming them into the devices, which eventually spoke back the lyrics for them.
Speak Up Hunter, a peer support group run for and by people with intellectual disability, has composed "This Is My World"-- a song about their lives, with a motive to develop their public speaking skills and gaining confidence to share things that matter to them.
Some topics covered by the group include how to have tough conversations, family and relationships, awareness and prevention of bullying, abuse and neglect among others
