Hip-Hop CPR
CPR is going HIP-HOP, hitting the mash-up fans of DJ Earworm.
Earworm agreed to team up with The AHA to promote CPR to his fans because of a horrible situation that left him feeling helpless.

DJ Earworm is known for his hip mash-ups, and as part of the National CPR Awareness week, he plans to create “Hands-Only CPR Mash-Up,” with a mix of tunes that includes favs like Salt-N-Pepa’s “Push It.”
Earworm agreed to be involved to raise social awareness through music. He calls it ‘Healthy Hollywood.
