All It Takes Is An Idea
I know everybody has their on take of how or if music has a bearing on the actions on a youth but lets put it like this just in case you don't believe music has any bearing on a young listener. Answer these questions as an adult when you want to get in a party mood what do you want the D.J. to play? A party type song and immediately everyone rushes to the dance floor because whatever that song is or the beat is it moves people and people identify the song and beat with Party or Dancing. On another note when people are trying to set the mood they don't run to a sad song of how I lost my dog house cat or etc. They put on some slow rhythms with soft little echoes with maybe a smooth voice and hmmm we all know how the night usually ends. Now if you being an adult are moved by the suggestion of songs lyrics and beats how much more a youth.
When usually the top 10 rap videos have some form of money glorification, self worship, drug glorifying, gun gloryfying and whatever else you can name that is against good moral living what do you think the youth will sometimes do. The industry pumps certain amounts of money in each project to promote market and sell albums and get its artist in the mainstream (basically in the mind of music listerners and pop culture). So in other words when they promote artist who promote drugs, pimping, money by all means etc. in essence they are promoting the idea of drugs, pimping, sex, money by all means to the youth. Be careful what you allow your kids to listen to. All it takes is an idea.
