Project Description

Today’s Future Sound, a fiscal project of Oakland Parks and Recreation Foundation, believes in the power of Hip Hop music and culture to transform people’s lives.

Today’s Future Sound (TFS) believes in the power of Hip Hop music and culture to transform people’s lives. TFS directly addresses a lack of culturally responsive educational, therapeutic, and social interventions for youth and people of all ages by operating our mobile music production studio in classrooms, community and juvenile justice settings, curating live events and forums, and delivering educational resources and professional development to under-represented California communities. Our interdisciplinary, cross-cultural, therapeutic, arts education programs and public events educate communities across California about the historical and social impact of Hip Hop culture, instills confidence through creativity, and helps individuals create positive change.
