It’s no surprise to hear that Bullying at school is a rising issue. In a world where we all have to have the latest fashions and the best devices, listen to the latest music, bullying in school still exists and can leave lasting scars in the hearts of those who experience it. Beacon has found an outlet to reach today's youth with a message that penetrates straight to the core, impacting and changing hearts for the future.

Most of today’s bullying happens at school, or at school-related activities. So, it makes sense to combat the issue, at school. In most cases, if a child or teen has experienced bullying at school, they won’t tell anyone about it. In fact, the statistic is that only about 25% of those being bullied will share it with an adult. That’s why it is so important to bring forth a message that will encourage students to stand up against bullying at school and give the ones hurting a message of hope. Beacon has a powerful message that is truly heard because of his talent to connect with the students through his music.

Hip Hop is one of the most listened to genre of music today. The lyrics of these songs can have lasting effects on our students. It can affect their behavior towards others, their habits, their thought patterns, and even how they chose to react to their surroundings. Beacon has harnessed his love for hip hop as a means to form a connection. Finding a common interest in music has allowed Beacon to deliver a message that truly can’t be matched, into hearts and minds ready to receive.

Getting the students engaged from the beginning with his music has proven to get their ears perked and listening. Beacon battles with words of hope and love, just like the lyrics of his popular song which dares students to “Love Haters”. Beacon fights bullying at school by helping students to grasp the fact that they can choose how they respond to negative things and people in their lives, empowering them to rise above.
