CINCINNATI, OH — May 7, 2025 — Acclaimed Christian rap artist, motivational speaker, and youth mentor DPB (David Paul Brooks) is celebrating a major career milestone as his latest single, “Peer Pressure,” rises to #1 on the National Radio Hits AC40 radio airplay chart. The emotionally charged track delivers a powerful message of strength, identity, and faith amid the challenges faced by today’s youth.
Serving as the second video installment in DPB’s ongoing series addressing critical social issues, “Peer Pressure” explores the internal and external battles teenagers endure in their pursuit of acceptance and belonging. Through the lens of a high school boy and girl, the music video portrays the harsh realities of bullying, social media anxiety, and temptation, while offering a hopeful and faith-based solution: “Be the person God created you to be.”
“At its core, ‘Peer Pressure’ is a movement, not just a song,” says DPB. “I want young people to know that they are enough. They were created on purpose, with purpose. This song is a reminder to stay rooted in your faith and never compromise your identity for the approval of others.”
The single’s surge to the top of the National Radio Hits AC40 chart comes on the heels of DPB’s recent success with “I Feel So Good Today (Happy Mix),” which also claimed multiple #1 spots on Christian and secular charts. The success of “Peer Pressure” further cements his reputation as a trailblazer in the positive rap genre and as a voice of encouragement in today’s music landscape.
DPB’s unique blend of message-driven hip-hop has earned him respect not only in music circles but also among educators, faith leaders, and youth advocates across the country. With its powerful narrative and spiritually grounded message, “Peer Pressure” is being embraced as a valuable resource in schools, churches, and mentorship programs.
More than just a recording artist, DPB is a long-time motivational speaker and youth advocate, often sharing his personal testimony in schools and community events nationwide. His life’s work revolves around empowering others to rise above negative influences and walk confidently in their faith.
With “Peer Pressure” now making waves across radio and digital platforms, DPB is preparing for the next release in his video series and is expanding his outreach initiatives. Upcoming projects will address timely topics such as mental health, cyberbullying, and self-worth, continuing his commitment to using music as a catalyst for change.To watch the official “Peer Pressure” video or learn more about DPB’s mission, visit http://www.worldofdpb.com
