Shaun Boothe is an award-winning hip-hop artist and TEDx speaker. After spending 10+ years in the music industry, sharing stages with the likes of Snoop Dogg, Lauryn Hill, and Kendrick Lamar, a search for a more purposeful path led Boothe to create the Unauthorized Biography Series, combining music with his passion for public speaking into a powerful tool to entertain and inspire others to achieve their own greatness.
Live Your Legacy is part of hip-hop biographer Shaun Boothe’s Unauthorized Biography Series, a critically acclaimed musical project that celebrates the world’s greatest cultural icons through biographical rap songs- repackaging history through hip-hop. Half TED Talk, half live concert, Shaun uses music, multimedia, and motivation to deliver powerful and transformative messaging in a way that truly resonates with audiences and leaves you inspired. Live Your Legacy is tailored to empower, educate, and inspire students and adults alike to realize their greatest potential.
In honour of Black Histories and Futures Month, this presentation will focus on the lives of Martin Luther King and Barack Obama, Bob Marley, and Serena Williams.
