enjoy MTV boys and girls !!!
How many would believe the common television is a major building block of our present society? Yes, the very T.V. in your bedroom is one of the many influences that built and is building our society at this very moment. Through its' many commercials, sitcoms, movies and even MTV’s, they lay thick layers of influences on the average individual especially children. I am agreeing that MTVs are corrupting our children. Before I go further more let me explain what MTV is. MTV stand for Music Television that plays music video made by popular music artists. As we know children are like a white sheet, so they will key in every new thing for them and teenage like to explore any new things that they heard or see…that what we call a human nature. According to “Kids and Teens Show Who’s Boss in Purchasing Power” an article by Shari Sander in April 3,1995 issue of Discount Store News, “…72% of male and 75% of female (among teenagers in US) watch the cable music station weekly. MTV is also watches by teenagers in Europe, Asia and
Let the music sooth your soul. It is quite true in term of listening to songs that have a good lyrics and ethics. Now maybe that would be nicer than a cup of cappuccino after having a hard time at work or school. But now we are talking about “watching” not only listening but being entertain with video and audio (the most effective way to stick it in your head, if you heard something you will remember it and if you look at it you will memorize it) with less care on the lyric and concept of the MTV as long as it make profit to them. Just question yourselves, how much time do you spend your time in front of a television? Imagine how much of this vital poison has been spreading into your children’s minds. But what about a song with a good lyric, it will not do any harm to us is it? Not quite true, in MTV everything is not save starting from exploitation of a “Barbie” doll, “George of the jungle” and even to “Superman” nothing is being left out of this pathetic industry.
Example 1:
I'm a Barbie girl, in a Barbie world
Life in plastic, it's fantastic!
You can brush my hair; undress me everywhere
Imagination, life is your creation
I'm a blond bimbo girl, in a fantasy world
Dress me up, make it tight, I'm your dolly
You're my doll, rock'n'roll, feel the glamour in pink,
kiss me here, touch me there, hanky panky...
You can touch; you can play, if you say: 'I'm always yours'
Dressing as a doll and singing this song. Will your children accept it in their mind? Undress everywhere, dress me up and make it tight, kiss me here touch me there. If using a real doll then it is alright but doing it yourself? Remember, children have a simple mind they accept thing with less thinking process like we do. How about “George in the jungle”? Also perform by the same group of a singer. They dress up as Tarzan and Jane, this kind of Disney theme always draw out attention from children don’t they? The problem is the outfit or costume mainly exposure more than it suppose to cover and that is not good!
Next example:
They call me Superman,
Leap tall hoes in a single bound,
I'm single now,
Got no ring on this finger now,
I'll never let another chick bring me down,
In a relationship, save it b***h babysit you make me sick,
Superman aint savin s**t girl you can jump on shady's d**k
Straight from the hip, cut to the chase,
I'll tell a m*****f*****g slut to her face,
Play no games, say no names, ever since I broke up with what's her face,
I'm a different man, kiss my a**, kiss my lips, b***h why ask
Kiss my d**k, hit my cash, i'd rather have you whip my a**
Don't put out i'll put you out,
Won't get out i'll push you out,
Puss blew out, copin s**t,
Wouldn't p*ss on fire to put you out,
Am I too nice buy you ice,
B***h if you died, wouldn't buy you life,
What you tryin to be, my new wife
This is the lyric from a famous rap artist. A song title “Superman” with a MTV that is totally out of specification to being watch by your children. There is a part where the rapper lying on the floor with countless sexy women licking each other surrounding him. Now that is different from what your children imagine of a “Superman” a farm boy with supernatural power?
Let’s talk about morality, does it make your children better by talking bad language not only with their friends but also to their parent. That is what will happen because children easily pickup words or phrase from the MTV and use it throughout their daily life. Of course we do not want that to happen. What goes on air and display on the TV screen? For your information there are many artists that cursed even their own parent, siblings, friends and others.
Example:
Keep kicking *ss in the morning, and taking names in the evening
Leaving with the taste of sour with viniger in they mouth
See they can trigger me, but they'll never figure me out
Look at me now, I betcha prolly sick of me now
Ain't you mama, I'm make you look so ridiculous now
I'm sorry mama
I never meant to hurt you
I never meant make you cry
But tonight, I'm cleaning out my closet
One More Time
I'm sorry mama
I never meant to hurt you
I never meant make you cry
But tonight, I'm cleaning out my closet
Ha!
I got some skeletons in my closet
And I don’t know if no one knows it
So before they throw me inside my coffin and close it
I'm expose it, I'll take you back to '73
Before I ever had a multi-platinum selling CD
I was a baby maybe I was just a couple of months
My faggot father must've had his panties up in a bunch
'Cause he split, I wonder if he even kissed me goodbye
No I don't, on second thought I just fucking wished he would die
My whole life I was made to believe I was sick when I wasn't
'Til I grew up, now I blew up it makes you sick to your stomach, doesn't it
Wasn't it the reason you made a CD for me, ma
So you could try to justify the way you treated me, ma
But guess what, your getting older now and it's cold when your lonely
And Nathan's growing up so quick he's gonna know that your phoney
And Hailie's getting so big now, you should see her, she's beautiful
But you'll never see her, she wont even be at your funeral
See what hurts me the most, is you wont admit you was wrong
B***h, do your song, keep telling yourself that you was a mum
But how dare you try to take what you didn't help me to get
You selfish b***h, I hope you f*****g burn in hell for this s**t!
Remember when Ronnie died and you said you wished it was me
Well guess what, I am dead, dead to you as can be
The MTV of this song picture the singer digging up a grave on a rainy night and start to curse on his mother.
The black metal once was a serious case among student and teenage in our country
Trendy and stylish. Who decide that? Now day’s children mostly teenagers would like to be up to date. How to be up to date? How to get a fashion? How about using the MTV and follow the way your idol singer dress up? I am not saying that it is wrong to do that. The thing is what kind of fashion do you follow? How about your budget? They would do anything to look like their artist even if they not have the money to buy the shoes the dress the necklace evens the hair style! Some of them are lucky and come from a wealthy family, how about the others? Saving their pocket money, not eat during recess and even borrowing money from their friends. Everything have the bad side of them, if u have a lot of money still u will be wasting money by buying stuff that you does not actually needed and there are many other thing to spend the money on maybe on your studies or save it in the bank for future and emergency use. Gastric is a common thing to people that does not take their meal on time and how much will the children’s bodies can stand. The trendier you want to be the more money you have to pay for it and that’s where the extra pocket money goes to. When they borrow money from other people to buy things that they desire, they can get the item easily in a short time. This will make them addicted and lost control of their financial. They will end up with people bugging you all around asking you to pay back their money. All of these will make your children to grow up to be an unhealthy person.
I think it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out MTVs peddle this message to the masses. MTVs have been dishing it out to kids for more than a generation. Don't mad with your child if they did not turn into a good citizen and don't blame musicians because they have a right to say and show whatever they want in their music, no matter how offending it might be to some people. It is all in your hand how you want to raise your child. I think if they cannot make a right decision we must choose it for them or give guidance and good example. To prevent this poison from spread and spoil our kids parent should talk to their teenage kids about the evil of pop culture and it main source MTVs. Good communication between child and parent will help a lot to solve this problem. Both kid and parent must take action or MTVs will ruin the future of this nation and many other part of the world.
