Watch a high school-aged Josh Rosen rap about science on his newly discovered YouTube channel

Allow us to introduce you to Josh Rosen's YouTube page, which includes videos he made for various classes while he attended St. John Bosco High School in Bellflower, California. Some videos are dated as far back as 2011, when Rosen was just 14 years old.

The highlights:

-Rosen and his classmates created a poorly-dubbed rap video about photosynthesis in order to earn extra credit in a science class. The song was a parody of Biz Markie's "Just a Friend."

For his AP world history class, Rosen listed a series of world conquests over the years, all of which he says had a common theme: They were motivated by the love of money. "America invaded Iraq because of the threat of weapons of mass destruction. Good joke. George Bush wanted oil," Rosen said toward the end of this video. He also made it rain several times.

are being dug up to expose racial epithets and homophobic terms, having a teenage science vlog is pretty cool by comparison.

I will cheer for him for that reason alone! The only other QB that I've heard make a semi-political statement that impressed me was Aaron Rodgers. It was more about tolerance, but it showed he's no redneck.
