A study claims that Logic’s '1-800-273-8255' anthem saved hundreds of lives
“To know that my music was actually affecting people’s lives, truly, that’s what inspired me to make the song,” Logic toldon Monday . “We did it from a really warm place in our hearts to try to help people. And the fact that it actually did, that blows my mind.”
The study found that the Lifeline received nearly 10,000 more calls, in addition to the observed reduction in suicide rates among 10-19-year-olds during those periods. Thatreported that that decrease equals a reduction of 245 suicides below the expected number during that time frame. “Logic’s song ‘1-800-273-8255’ was associated with a large increase in calls to Lifeline.
“Celebrities but also noncelebrities can have an important role in suicide prevention if they communicate about how they have coped with crisis situations and suicidal ideation,” study author Thomas Niederkrotenthaler told CNN. The study also notes that, “Logic’s song likely represents the broadest and most sustained suicide prevention messaging directly connected to a story of hope and recovery in any location to date and is thus a serendipitous event for research.
“I’ve been praying for somebody to save me, no one’s heroic … And my life don’t even matter, I know it, I know it … They say every life precious but nobody care about mine,” Logic raps on the track that tells the story of a man’s battle with suicidal thoughts, which spurs him to calls the Lifeline rather than take his life; Alessia Cara plays the crisis counselor who answers his call on the song that also features Khalid. The song spent four week at No.
