The lions of sub-Saharan Africa are strong. They attack their prey with incredible force and cold brutality. They are kings of their domain because they are ferocious. Just like our school’s symbol, James Lyng High School students have a powerful artistic vision and unrelenting determination.
Up Next Recordings, James Lyng High School’s student-run record label, returns with a fourth collection of music written and recorded by James Lyng students. Entitled “Ferocious”, the collection of original music includes songs written and performed by the school’s musical classes, extra-curricular rock bands and hip hop artists during the 2018-2019 school year. It is the school’s best mixtape to date. The songs on the mixtape were recorded at James Lyng’s own Up Next Recording Studio. In 2015, the school officially became an urban arts high school, incorporating hip hop and street art into many subject areas, as well as offering intensive group and individualized instruction in the popular arts. |
