"S,O.S Please, Someone Help Me" Parent's Cry

Music has been changing, and because it has been certainly for teenagers, parents are beginning to get worried. So worried in fact is the whole world, that scientists have been creating studies to look at and help prevent certain musics to enter young teenager homes.

Some of the worries include sexual activity from both dancing and lyrics. One study had concluded that rap lyrics have made the genders into two different things- "Men are sexually unstable and women are sexual objects" (Dr. Steven Martino). This study concludes that rap music leads to teenager pregnancies.

It is continued that these lyrics have made young girls feel that they must portray the role of a submissive and willing sex toy for the guys. The rate of teenage pregnancies have sky rocketed over the years and this is one of the major reasons why.

But can it be stopped? Do you think that rap singers should take it easy on the sex issues for their music?

One Winged Angel Created By A True Angel of Music

Post Prompt #1: "Who was your first favorite group or singer? How old were you at the time? What was important to you about this music?"

I suppose my favorite artist is surprisingly a composer who lives out of this country. His name is Nobuo Uematsu who composes the music to many of the Final Fantasy games. The first time I heard his music was when I was playing Final Fantasy X (a few years ago)- and I was impressed on how each moment had a different tune and how the instruments were used to express emotion. Now he has preformed on quite a few Final Fantasy games- many of which I have played. He continues to astound me and I am still a big fan.
