We are bridging the digital divide by training at-risk youth to operate a scalable, AI-powered music company. Join us in creating real economic opportunity.
Underserved youth are being left behind by the AI revolution. In communities where access to technology is limited, brilliant minds risk being "lost in the masses," cut off from the high-tech skills required for the future economy.
We believe that talent is equally distributed, but opportunity is not. Next Gen Sounds exists to fix that imbalance by providing a tangible, high-tech pathway to economic self-sufficiency.
We don't just teach theory. We train youth to build and operate a real, profit-generating music distribution company. They learn by doing—managing assets, analyzing data, and earning revenue.
Mastering Generative AI tools, metadata standards, and digital platforms prepares students for the future workforce.
Running a real P&L, managing royalties, and executing marketing campaigns builds true entrepreneurial muscle.
Preventing negative outcomes like incarceration by providing engaging, positive, and lucrative alternatives.
Next Gen Sounds is built on the backbone of The Artist's Cut Distribution Inc., a Delaware C-Corp disrupting the music industry with a fair, partnership-driven model.
Our youth run their label on a professional backend (via SonoSuite partnership) that delivers to Spotify, Apple Music, and TikTok globally.
We model ethical business practices. The Artist's Cut operates on an 85/15 no-fee revenue share, teaching students that success should be shared, not gatekept.
Students learn the power of community through our proprietary social tech, which incentivizes artists to cross-promote and support each other's growth.
We are seeking partners to help us scale this proven model to more communities.
Contract Next Gen Sounds as a workforce development or diversion program provider for your jurisdiction.
Implement our curriculum as a cutting-edge Career Technical Education (CTE) pathway for arts and technology.
Sponsor a specific cohort or provide equipment/technology grants to bridge the resource gap.
Provide seed funding to help us build the proprietary software platform that will allow us to scale nationally.
