On Endless Love and One Night Stands

I’ve become old school… it took time for me to admit this till I had a second look at my playlist….

No Drake equals old school

Its not all that bad, in fact most of them can beat new releases today and some modern music are just horrible!

Nowadays new beats though catchy and all lack meaning.  I can hardy listen to rap music without catching the F word or something. I don’t know about you but I think I’m tired of hearing various ways of clubbing and how to have sex; it’s a serious dumbing down of I.Q in my opinion. You listen to some songs and you truly wonder, but I guess some people are all for just the beat.

The saddest thing is the music videos could be equated to pornography which shows a very poor representation of women.  Women are not always naked, neither do they shake all the time for money and most of all WE ARE NOT SEX TOYS!!!

Many state that some (or most) secular music are produced by Devil worshippers or their music is inspired by the Devil. Though this is controversial, it is hardly farfetched.  I am of the opinion that one does not need to be told this for one to know that some secular music are not wholesome, anyone in right mind should be able to figure out  that frequent listening to harmful music (in this case excessive sex content  and lyrics that promote violence and aggression) is psychologically unhealthy.  Constant exposure to certain media content definitely has an effect on an individual’s behaviour. Gerbner’s cultivation theory can also be applied to this; if one constantly and frequently listens to unwholesome music, either violent or sexual, the individual would tend to behave aggressively or seek sexual gratification even when unnecessary and that is why when one probably listens to certain music thinks of his girlfriend and ways to practice the “tricks” he has learnt on her or vice versa.  Although This does not mean human beings are helpless to media (as we can control how we react to what we listen to) but is it worth it? Do I have to listen to money, bitches and hoes in order to succeed in life?

I think one should engage in wholesome things if one wants to develop psychologically in a wholesome way, There might be other reasons why such music sells millions of copies and there are still some great new tracks out there but like I said, I’m all for endless love not one night stands.
