Dallas-based Skylark Soul Co. has joined forces with the Dallas Mavericks and Universal Music Production Group to curate a "Soundtrack for Empowerment."

The Truth to Power Project is a creative endeavor working to engage people with inspiring new music and multi-media content in hopes of encouraging them to get involved in their community. Let’s bring truth to the light so that we can heal, grow, and prosper together. 

Hip-Hop, Soul, Psych and Jazz artists with a shared commitment to racial equity have donated their time and creative energies to produce exclusive collaborations, including Leon Bridges, Black Pumas, BADBADNOTGOOD, Keite Young, Ghost-Note, Sarah Jaffe, Holy Hive, and many more. And it hasn’t taken long for this expansive, nonprofit musical endeavor to transcend its DFW roots and grow into Austin, New York, Detroit, and Toronto.

A percentage of the revenue generated from this project will support the next generation of emerging musicians through the Music Forward Foundation. This national nonprofit organization is dedicated to transforming young lives, inspiring careers, and championing a more inclusive music industry. 

On a local level, Skylark Soul Co. is working with the Dallas Mavericks and Universal Music Production Group to identify nonprofits in the DFW-area that are aligned with their vision for supporting communities that have been damaged by inequitable structures.
