Beaver loses himself rapping at APA
Taking the stage at the Academic Pep Assembly, Scott Beaver, business teacher, performs Lose Yourself by Eminem.
“Honestly, it’s something I’ve dreamed about doing since I was younger, ever since the song came out; it means a lot to me. I was so excited that the audience got into it. When I was up there, the lights were so blinding that I couldn’t really tell how into it they got until I watched a video. Everyone said the audience was singing the words, but I was so concentrated about not messing up that I couldn’t really enjoy it,” Beaver said.
Check out this video for his entire performance.
