North Carolina [US], December 12 (ANI): A study has recently revealed that the increase in mental health messages from rap artists could shape the conversations for their younger listeners who are at a higher risk of experiencing issues related to mental health.
The study published in JAMA Pediatrics and conducted at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has revealed that the most popular rap songs in the USA increasingly refer to suicide and depression, with mixed up references about the struggles of mental health.
