    The Think Earth Songwriting Contest

    Future Youth Records invited 16-24-year-old youth to submit original songs promoting environmental justice. Songs will be judged by an all-star panel of music industry artists, producers, and experts. Judging criteria will be based on several factors including lyrical content, song structure, and alignment to the Think Earth campaign theme.

    The production quality was not considered as part of the overall contest. Five winners will be announced in advance of Earth Day on April 22, 2021. Winning songs will be recorded with a professional, award-winning production team, and will be released on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon, and other major digital music platforms. Copyrights and recordings remain the property of the entrant.

    In addition to a $1,000 cash prize and free promotion, finalists will receive production support as needed from a world-class team at NO cost. Members of the Future Youth Records team include Matt “Doctor Fink” (Prince and The Revolution), Morris Pleasure (Michael Jackson, Earth Wind & Fire), Eva Gardner (P!nk, Gwen Stefani), and Dave Shul (Michael Franti).
