SCSU student song raising money for university
ORANGEBURG, South Carolina -- A South Carolina State University student is helping raise money for the school through music.
Keith Gillard, known as K-G the Artist, wrote the original song I Love my HBCU. Gillard says he was inspired to write the song after the university's accreditation problems. He says he wants to send a positive message about historically black colleges to the public.
"I just wanted to put on for my school and all the HBCU because I've just been hearing a lot about HBCU being shut down or threatened to be shut down whether it was us or not,” Gillard said. “I just wanted to make a stand. We're here thriving and we're not going no where.”
The song can be downloaded on iTunes and all proceeds go to the university.
