What does "reach out" mean in this context:

A: Do you think my song will reach out to everybody?

B: I heard some people say that it's for kids, but that's not true, it
reaches out to me and I'm 21.

I got this from a video, but can't figure out the meaning. Google said that "reach out" means "to help," but I don't think that's correct in this context.
