About the Work

Sound It Out comes at a time when many young people are struggling with isolation and stress caused by the pandemic, on top of the normal pressures of growing up. Sound It Out places an emphasis on reaching parents and caregivers in Black and Hispanic/Latinx communities, which often face the additional trauma of systemic racism and greater challenges in accessing the support they need. Songs, videos, and resources are all available in English and Spanish.

Inspired by the insight that music can help unlock conversations between middle schoolers and their parents or caregivers, the campaign features exclusive new music and interviews from recording artists KAMAUU, Tobe Nwigwe, Lauren Jauregui and Empress Of. The artists participated in intimate conversations with middle schoolers and their caregivers, facilitated by mental health experts, and translated the kids’ emotions and experiences into songs. The album will be available to stream across Amazon Music, Apple Music, Deezer, Google Play, iTunes, Pandora, SoundCloud, Spotify, Tidal, and YouTube. Caregivers can also access the campaign videos, songs, and resources on Sound It Out channels on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.
