The song by Logic, which features Alessia Cara and Khalid, proves that music has the ability to impact our culture and people’s emotions, specifically in the realm of suicide prevention. Music can lift a person’s spirits or engulf them in a sea of emotions. Many people turn to music when they are feeling all sorts of emotions, whether they are in a time of happiness, optimism, darkness, or sorrow. One prime example of this is Logic’s “1-80”, which centers in on suicide prevention and has spiked the number of calls the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (NSPL) receives. Music has the power to raise awareness of global issues.
