In the clip, R&B singer Timothy Bloom talks about the importance of music classes being in schools, and how it has impacted him as an artist today. Also, he gives some advice to those in school now.

I agree with him. One of the fastest programs to get cut due to decreasing budgets in the education system are the music ones, unfortunately. I personally think music programs are just as important as sports, though it is not as glorified as such.. Either way, they allow kids to express their creativity and stay busy as an extracurricular activity. I wish more artists would speak out to save music programs in schools, and do more functions to help support these programs. And in my humble opinion, I think there needs to be more money put into education as a whole.. but thats me getting sidetracked to the politics lol.
