Y.N. RichKids es un grupo de rap que surgió del programa Beats & Rhymes del centro comunitario YMCA en Minneapolis, Minnesota, Estados Unidos.
Beats & Rhymes fue fundado en 2007 en Minneapolis con la idea de proporcionar a estudiantes la oportunidad de hacer y grabar su propia música. El programa está diseñado para proporcionar a grupos multiculturales de niños económicamente desfavorecidos actividades gratificantes y positivas que les abran posibilidades de desarrollo personal y profesional. Además, para participar en esta actividad “extra-escolar” todas las niñas y niños tienen que hacer sus deberes antes, lo que les impulsa a mejorar su rendimiento académico.
En sus canciones lo niños se expresan sobre aspectos de su realidad como su pasión por la bicicleta. “My bike” fue el primer éxito de los Y.N. RichKids pero no el último. En su página oficial puedes encontar toda la música del grupo. El video es genial:
