American hip hop artist Logic's song '1-800-273-8255' was associated with an increase in calls to the US National Suicide Prevention Lifeline and a reduction in suicides, a new study finds.
"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 performs onstage during the 2017 MTV Video Music Awards at The Forum on August 27, 2017 in Inglewood, California.When American hip hop artist Logic sang his hit song "1-800-273-8255" on MTV's Video Music Awards in 2017, calls to that number, which belongs to the US National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, soared by 50% after the performance, according to the lifeline.
This"copycat" syndrome gets its name from Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's 1774 book"The Sorrows of Young Werther," in which young Werther takes his life when he cannot have the woman he loves. A spate of suicides was said to follow in areas where the book was published, causing it to be banned in several European countries. Recent studies by Niederkrotenthaler found reporting by the media about suicides by celebrities did impact suicides rates immediately after their deaths.
