I have to say that GLAMAZON was talking to me about this subject a while back. Pop music singers are pushing street walkers and ho’s out of business because they are making sex too accessible and too cheap. They’re also making it too young for their immature adolescent consumers to understand it’s ramifications.
This isn’t to say that pop music singers weren’t always glorified prostitutes, both men and women. A bunch of skanky street hustlers with some glitter shirts on. Shaking their money makers for old white men who incidentally preferred men to women. How you doin’ DIDDY?!? The bottom line was that they were all grown azz people and even though it was still pop music their image did not appeal to a younger audience. There were no little girls dressing like the Mary Jane Girls
or better yet, VANITY 6.
These were grown azz ho’s and everybody knew that. When they sung about giving oral sex or sticking a finger up a man’s asshole you knew they knew what they were talking about. When I hear sixteen year old CASSIE sing about giving head I have to ask myself, “Self, does this pretty face really know how to lick the underside of my balls as well as tongue kiss my taint?”
Or is she just another pretty face all dolled up in grown woman’s make up? Now don’t get me wrong, I am all for young woman expressing their natural biological desires, if they feel like they have to. ROBERT SYLVESTER KELLY picks up my slack when the age meter dips below 17. It’s just that I am tired of listening to these young girls singing songs about how many cocks they can hold when they haven’t even been peed on yet.
JiggaMan, please handle your young ho protege.
preach!!!
cassie looks like one of them underage, high priced, tijuana hoes the kind that you pay separately for the girl and the room hoes…it’s a damn damn shame!
Pop culture has made me a conservative. I figure sooner or later this overly sexed industry will emplode and the flood gates will open up for artist who actually have musical talent.
Until then I will at least settle for a seasoned hoe and not some little girl playing dress up.
This post needs to be on the front of People magazine!
I’m with you all…I’m waiting on all these chicks to “retire”. There’s so many people with untapped talent that make great music, but can’t even get a shout out on the radio if they aren’t “sexy”.
word up! and for-rilla…people need to wake up and realize that we live in a capitalist society….duh! in the “vidoe age” its the “beautiful ones” that get the shine…back in the days of “radio” the raw talent clearly shone through! and als looooooooong as people keep buying that bull-ish, they gon’ keep on selling it…like Filmore Slim said in American Pimp (the movie) “P*$$y gon’ sell, when cotton and corn won’t!”
It’s funny, I remember Senators speaking out against N.W.A. and Ice T, they currently speak out against video games, but young hoes? It’s all good!!! I mean damn I at least expect a female senator to say something. Besides by some of their ages isn’t that illegal except in Nevada.
Amadeo…you just said it. Who is speaking out about the women continuously being objectified in these videos? The pimp game is shifting from the corner to the video and movie screen in your house.
Angie Stone, Heather Headley, Deborah Cox, India.Arie etc…real singers with clothes on….where is the airplay?
I am fighting a never ending battle against uncensored lyrics and sexual content videos during prime time radio. PLEASE listen to Eminem/Nate Dogg ” Shake that ass for me…”. Read the lyrics. Any song you can sing villifying nigger, Cris and snitching is played on BLAST and uncensored…Right now there is some stupid shit playing on the radio..”.I’m too sexy for my jeans, I have to take them off before you put your hands on my ass.”..WTF? Where is the mystique?
Listen to that new song by E-40 or this new video I saw on Wack entertainment TV (BET) today about long gold chains. The kids are in the background dancin’ and rappin’ about long gold medallion chains WTF!
(pulling out conspiracy handbook)
Ya’ll know none of this is random, right?!? I dont care how racey or scandalous a Jessica Simpson, Brittney (makes me gag), Christina, the whole pale-lot of them, videos may be labled by Viacom (El Diablo), they will never look as trashy/ho-ish as Black female artists.
Same big-brother companies. Same directors. Why such a difference in the presentation???
so i guess its good we still have artist telling the young ones to “wait awhile”
http://crunktastical.blogspot.com/2006/08/lets-wait-while.html (ha!)
but seriously, it has to be real hard raising young kids today with all of the negative images they see in everything from videos, tv shows, and even commercials. i give props to those that are trying.
and i’m kinda pissed that when i turn on the radio i’m listening to some lil teen sing about stuff she’s probably fantasized about in her diary. give me a singer who’s lived and experienced life, the ups and downs, the heartache, true love, and all that.
oh and this also goes to the so-called male singers out now too. i know damn well ne-yo, omarion, and the rest of them cant do half the stuff they sing about. i bet you can still smell the similac on their breaths.
man that’s wild…i can see Beyonce’s pic on the cover a DVD that reads “Porno Pop pt. 5″…open mouth, open legs, black phallic symbol in her hand near her coochie….that shit is wild.
oh yeah, i agree with everything said in the blog…good ish
Shawty, what these record company doing to the younger generation is bad business. When record companies and magazines glamourize certain aspect of artist(s) whether their ass, abs, or breast it gives the younger consumers a false sense of reality. The consumer thinks that’s what everyone wants so they flood the block and airways with it but if your going to be advertising just their body and cheap pick up lines. Man you might as well change the legendary HollyWood quote to “their’s no business like Hoe Business”.
