Music has been in existence for a very long time and has been important in the lives of young people. From the moment we are born until our youth stage, we are surrounded by music, and it has been positive, helping us in learning, entertainment, communication, career pathways, and shaping our behavior, thoughts, and emotions.

Nowadays, youth really love music and spend a lot of time listening to it either through radio, social media, or several different music platforms. They also watch music videos on television and YouTube channels. Music didn't only provide enjoyment for young people, but through music, many of our youth have learned how to love and respect one another. There are several amazing songs that convey the messages of kindness, love, empathy, and the importance of having a healthy relationship. Youth engaging with this kind of song can encourage them to love and see each other as one.

Moreover, music contributes to the mental, physical, and emotional health of youth. Many of our young people don't just listen to any kind of music. A lot of youth have a strong belief that they can overcome stress with the help of music. That is why some of them mostly listen to music that meets their emotional needs. When youth engage with music, whether through playing instruments, listening to, or even singing of music, especially during stressful times, their bodies always release a neurotransmitter called dopamine, which can help them to overcome symptoms of worry, stress, and anxiety in their body. Music makes it easier for youth to improve their mood and feel motivated to study, work, relax, sleep, or carry out any tasks with ease.

Furthermore, engaging with music is now creating a beautiful future for youth and opening doors for different kinds of careers. Through the love that many youth have for music, many youth are now using their passion, skills, and talents to pursue a career in music, such as musician, singer, DJ, teacher, and so on. Many young artists have found their success in music, artists like Olamide, Rema, and Wizkid are all from Nigeria, and they all started as youth, and they have achieved a lot of success in music. Choosing music as a career can be worthwhile and profitable if only one can be commuted to put in the effort and time that it takes to achieve your goal and be successful in life.

In addition, music can also promote teamwork among youth. Performing music is just like a soccer game; to achieve your goal, you need to work together, if you fail to work together, you can end up losing. When a youth come together to play music either as a church band or school band, the only language they understand is win, and this has really helped a lot of youth to understand the importance of unity, cooperation, and teamwork among the youth.

"performing music is like a soccer game" you couldn't have said it any better.

There needs to be teamwork in music. No one should try to outshine the other, or overdo their part. Everyone should just focus on doing their part very well and. Complement the other, creating a perfect harmony a a team.
