Message to 21UP Movement Founder Perry Blake from Lyla


At the 21UP Movement, our mission is clear: to support young people in achieving their goals and unlocking their full potential. We believe every young individual has the capacity to excel, and we are dedicated to providing the resources, encouragement, and platforms they need to succeed. Recently, we had the pleasure of supporting one of our members, Lyla, in her academic journey, and we couldn't be prouder of her accomplishments.


21UP Movement Empowering Young Voices in Academic Success


Lyla, a dedicated university student, had a challenging assignment ahead. She needed to conduct interviews with young people regarding the impact of drill music and its potential correlation with youth violence. Recognizing the importance of this topic, she reached out to the 21UP Movement community, and we were thrilled to rally behind her. Ten young individuals from our network eagerly volunteered to share their perspectives, highlighting the vibrant voices within our community.


The discussions were eye-opening. Many participants expressed their views on the complex relationship between drill music and youth violence, sharing personal experiences and insights. Some argued that the music genre serves as a form of expression for young people, addressing their realities and struggles. Others voiced concerns about the possible negative influences of certain lyrics and themes. This dialogue not only enriched Lyla's research but also fostered a deeper understanding of a topic that is often controversial and misunderstood.


Supporting Academic Journeys: A Core Value of 21UP Movement


Lyla’s hard work and dedication paid off, and we are thrilled to announce that she received a commendable 2:1 for her final assignment! Her success is a testament to the power of collaboration and the importance of community support in academic endeavors. In her heartfelt thank-you note to the 21UP Movement, Lyla expressed her gratitude for the encouragement and assistance she received from our network. Moments like these remind us of the profound impact we can have on each other’s lives.


So, what are your thoughts on the relationship between drill music and youth violence? Do you believe the genre influences behavior, or is it a reflection of the realities faced by young people today? We invite you to join the conversation and share your insights. Engaging in these discussions is essential as we seek to understand the complexities of youth culture and its implications.


At the 21UP Movement, we are committed to empowering young voices not just in their academic pursuits but in all aspects of their lives. Whether it’s through mentorship, providing platforms for discussion, or simply being a supportive community, we are here to help young individuals navigate their journeys.
