This article aims to analyze the meanings attributed to RAP (rythym and poetry) by adolescents and young people in compliance with a socio-educational measure. The qualitative exploratory research took place in Socio-Educational Units in the state of Paraíba. Twelve adolescents and young people, between 14 and 21 years old, participated, 3 female and nine male. A semi-structured interview was used as an instrument and Bardin's Content Analysis (1977) was carried out. The participants emphasized the pedagogical potential of RAP, which teaches how to write and socialize. Young people and adolescents also pointed out that they use RAP as an element that helps in the resistance process in the Units, and as a means of leisure and source of teachings. This musical genre offers elements that allow participants to engage in life projects and new possibilities for future actions.

Keywords : hip-hop; historical-cultural psychology; resistance; life project.
