COVID-19 REVISED RULES

Due to the urgent need for social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Partnership for a Drug-Free New Jersey will NOT accept any duet or group entries from students who have gathered together in the same room to create or record their music entry. Although it is challenging, duets and groups must create their original song while working together remotely only. Anyone who does not adhere to this 2021 rule, will be disqualified from the contest.

History of the Event

Formerly known as New Jersey Shout Down Drugs since 2005, Your Song! Your Voice! Shout Down Drugs New Jersey has been rebranded with a new name that fully encompasses what the competition is all about – challenging teens to create peer-to-peer original music, songs and lyrics in their own original style, whether it be hip-hop, rock, folk or any other genre. Each year the contestants’ songs are featured on ShoutDownDrugs.com. The online voting periods allow the public to listen to and vote for their favorite songs. To date, more than one million votes have been cast since the online voting feature began in 2010. The contest finalists participate in the Annual Prevention Concert during which the first, second and third place winners are chosen by a panel of judges to receive contracts worth $5,000, 3,000 and $2,000 respectively to perform their award-winning songs at events throughout the year.
