LUDACRIS X THE STUDENTS!
Our students had the opportunity to create content for @ludacris (and dang near all of his friends) at @onemusicfest !! This sort of project is the ultimate opportunity for students to apply what they’ve learned in our programs at the absolute highest level in the real world (tbh, you cant get any higher than this).
The collaboration between The Ludacris Foundation, the Tech Tunes Program, and our team was unreal — and it set the pace for some wild projects in the future.
Checkout the vid shot by our students and stick around for their take at the end!
Keep your eyes peeled for more 👀
Be sure to show the student content team some love @shotby2c@smith_prodd

We had the opportunity to bring in the team to work with students at CCA during our recent producer/writer camp! 15% of the publishing from the songs made at the camp goes towards supporting our work in schools ⚡️

Dynamo Studios is a 6th-12th grade curriculum that teaches students the ins and outs of music production in schools and then connects them to opportunities with producers and artists in the real world.
As an Ambassador of @dynamostudios , I am excited to pair the curriculum with producer, singer and songwriter mentors from the industry! Shout out to my guy @kesslercuffman for including me in bringing his vision to Atlanta!!
Also thanks to @ross.louw for making the connection🤘🏾

Meet Aiden, who recently won the Songbirds Youth Talent Show with her band Gouda Cheese. After the big win, she joined Song Sessions, found her creative community, and began collaborating in new ways. Then came the full-circle moment—we realized Aiden first picked up a guitar years ago through our Guitars for Kids program.
This is the impact of investing in young creatives over time. This is how confidence is built, skills are developed, and futures are shaped. 💛
If you believe in stories like Aiden’s, consider becoming a monthly donor and helping us continue this work through Songbirds Foundation.

💥 Issa photoshoot! 📸 We’ve always believed in creating opportunities for creatives and building spaces where people can grow, not just in talent, but in confidence, experience, and connection. That’s why we love collaborating with organizations that value the same things. 🎶
👉 Songbirds Foundation is one of those organizations.
These photos from the retreat concerts were captured by Edwin, one of the students involved in their Dynamo programs, which give elementary through high school students opportunities to explore futures in music and media. 👏🏽 He did such a great job capturing the moments where these songs are first shared and heard.
🎉 Proud of you, Edwin. Appreciate you bringing your gift + perspective into the room with us. You’re always welcome in this space!
They say it takes a village, but these kids have a whole city behind them.
@songbirdsfoundation is stepping into a new partnership this season with the @chattlookouts . In conjunction with their brand new stadium, our students have been given access to create content for the team.
This is how the creative economy grows: by connecting talent to opportunity early, and giving students the experience and confidence to turn what they love into something sustainable.
Skills gets sharper. Dreams get closer. And passion starts to look a whole lot like a future.
If your middle or high school student is ready for more than just “interest”, this is their next step.
Summer programs are now open.
Go ahead and secure their spot via the link in our bio ⚾️ 👀
Thank you @maximmospanyuk and @will_hammond10 for another incredible video!

As Troy Kemp puts it—vision without execution is just hallucination.
That’s where we step in.
We don’t just inspire ideas—we equip students with the tools, technology, and real-world guidance to actually bring those ideas to life. 🎛️🎤
Because the goal isn’t just to dream…
It’s to finish. Build. Create. Execute. 🔥
