Breje teaches Kid Reporter Matt to "Twist Wit It"
Brejé, the 13-year-old rapper/singer/dancer/actor from Boston, has been touring the country getting the world to "Twist Wit It," (that's his hit song and dance) playing everywhere from California to Maine with artists from Ne-Yo to the Jonas Brothers. But he had time this summer to stop by Scholastic to chat with Matthew from the Scholastic Kids Press Corp.
Brejé got Matt up and dancing to his hit song, "Twist Wit It." And you can learn it too! Get up and dance with (or just watch) this exclusive Scholastic video:
Now that you're totally hooked on "Twist Wit It," here are five more must-know things to know about Brejé:
If you're wondering about the name, Brejé, it's pronounced bre-zay and is French, meaning "protector" and guardian".- Brejé gets his inspiration from his family. And Michael Jackson.
- Brejé gives great advice. One piece of advice? "Usually, we wait for someone else to make the change. Instead of waiting, why don't you make the change yourself?"
- Brejé's favorite subjects in school are math and social studies.
- The books Brejé would recommend to other kids are the Maximum Ride series by James Patterson.

The reporter really got talent. They need to do more acts together. Like to see more.
Comment #14 | Posted by: Brian on October 01, 2009 at 12:36 PM
this video was okay but i thought you could help the little bot a little more. For one he looked like he was struggling a little but in all i think the video would be better if i was in it helping you help the little boy.
