Music - The Audio Pornography

I am not persoanlly biased against any music culture or imagery, but I have this feeling deep-down, "Music today is one of the easiest way to lose your moral sense, the most affected are especially children"

Music is increasingly becoming the audio pornography, It is explicit, it is shameless, it is vulgar and it takes your sense of humanity away from you and makes you look at women as nothing more than sexual-objects, and in some lyrics worse than sexual-objects - these people are talking about women like they are talking about disposable items, with an horrible and horrific language, - and you might be surprised that the Pop-culture uses these words in their lyrics openly or sublimaly !

I would be happy to see children especially having a clean tongue, It is terrible to hear the 'F' word from an innocent loooking child, and the worse part that this word is given and market to child in form of hummable tune - thanks to M-TV & Channel-V.

Children are being misguided and hypnotised into this and are deviated from their pre-disposition of being a Child. Like the fable of Pied-piper who first drove the mice, and later hypnotised and took the children. Today's Music culture is hypnotising the young minds, and further damaging are the so called 'Reality Shows'.

The words used in the lyrics are similar to pouring gasoline on the sparks to ignite the young minds, no sooner the children are in school or college they are pushed by their sub-conscious desires to experiment, copy-cat and be the one like what they heard and saw on popular television. Their identity is crushed and the persona of a bitchy - sexy - groovy devil takes control of them. The consequences are very damaging, pre-marital pregnencies, abortions, sex-addiction, losing peace-of-mind, the everfailing desire of being someone else who they are not !


In the 1991 video "Dreamworlds" the pop-star described the image of women in music videos as male adolescent fantasies: young and pretty, willing and eager to please men, saying no when meaning yes, often reduced to outward appearances and body parts.
The interview host concluded that an unhealthy attitude towards sexual violence can be fostered by these videos, and calls for balancing them with other cultural representations of sexuality. He has been quoted as saying, “Advertising tells us that the way to happiness is through the consumption of objects. The immense accumulation of commodities has to be sold, and it is sold through the story of goods bringing happiness.” In his essay "Advertising at the Edge of the Apocalypse" and his video "Advertising and the End of the World" he argues that the major cultural force today, pervasive advertising, by constantly reinforcing a bogus association between consumerism and happiness and by focusing on individual immediate needs, stands in the way of a discussion of societal and long-term needs and leads to a squandering of resources. The video "Killing Us Softly III", created with Jean Kilbourne, is a critique of the image of women in advertising, and definitely an eye-opener.

Among other of his quotes which the students of his communication classes will hear from him, two of the most unforgettable are "knowing where something comes from, changes how you feel about it" and the phrase "the discourse through and about objects."

Humans (read 'men') are exponentially being changed from being moral-sentients into passive consuming-machines, the individual becomes a thing that does only one thing "consume" material things from diamonds, cars, music, wealth and women.

The ideal solution is probably, finding a better friend and the moral & ethical responsibility of parents to have connection with the child.
