PROGRAM OVERVIEW “Your Playlist Is Programming You” is a culturally relevant, interactive program designed to help participants understand how music influences their thoughts, emotions, identity, and behavior. Through guided discussions, lyric analysis, and real-life application, students explore how repeated exposure to music—especially Hip-Hop and R&B—can shape belief systems, normalize behaviors, and reinforce emotional patterns.
