How it works
From rap quote to profile
Participants respond to short rap quotes. Rapflections uses their choices, reactions and likes to create a personal profile. Participants review it and indicate what fits. They can then explore their profile through a STAR reflection exercise. The profile provides a starting point for an interview, workshop or research conversation.
Use cases
For recruitment, research and workshops.

Background
Why hip-hop?
Hip-hop is assertive. It gives language to conflict, conviction and identity. Sometimes you agree with a quote. Sometimes not at all. That difference can start a conversation. When you disagree, it says something about what you do stand for.
Rapflections uses that quality. The quotes force you to take a position. Your choices form a profile that shows what matters to you.
For organisations, it also shows an interest in hip-hop culture and the experiences expressed through it. Candidates and participants notice that.
