hip hop group

Both the hip hop group and the robotics lab are mobile facilities which tour the country stopping at various schools.

The idea is a bit like a circuit court, but a circuit court has a repetitive round and these science programs are probably once and one exhibits. They would not return to the same school twice.

still not clear about hip-pop in this context
Honeywell spends $2 million each year on science programs geared to middle school students, including a hip-hop touring group that teaches physical science, and a robotics lab program that teaches kids how to design, build and program their own robot.

Still not quite clear about hip-hop used in this context. I am inviting further explanation. Thanks.

Here's a copy of the press release from Honeywell.

I'm very contented about being out-of-date, but I think Hip Hop is a style of music. Here's a link to a site describing a Hip Hop Composer's/Singer's effort based on a speech of presidential candidate Obama.

In the case of the Hip Hop Honeywell Group, they evidently have set Newton's Laws of Motion in a current musical idiom.
