“Sweat until my clothes come off,”It’s getting’ hot in here, so take off all your clothes,” and “Baby don’t you wanna dance up on me,” are all lyrics from popular songs in today’s pop culture. These are just a few of the very many risqu’e lyrics to today’s most popular songs amongst teenagers. Not only are the lyrics very suggestive, but also some of the videos for these songs are downright raunchy. Popular music videos portray women in a very negative way. Music videos fling messages to young women that say that it is “cool” to dress provocatively and be promiscuous. Women are rarely ever showed in a decent and good-natured manner in today’s music videos, not to mention fully clothed.
One video in particular would have to be Christina Aguilera’s video for her song “Dirrty,” the video itself could almost be considered a soft-core pornographic video. And then there is the second pop princess, Britney Spears, “all grown up” in her video for “I’m a Slave for You,” where Britney bears all. In addition to the pop stars of today, the rappers in the media also display women as just merely objects. One that sticks out in particular is Nelly’s video for “Hot in Herre.” Scenes in Christina Aguilera’s “Dirrty” video contain images that are suggestive, sexy and downright lewd. Christina Aguilera’s music video for the song “Dirrty” sends a message to adolescent girls that it’s okay for women to be provocative. In the video, Christina appears sporting chaps over underpants, exposing her derriere, a popular look in the sadomasochist community, while she is singing about “getting off” with lyrics such as, “Wanna get rowdy/Gonna get a little unruly/Get it fired up in a hurry/Wanna get dirty.” (Aguilera).
The Essay on Song Comparisons
People find their inspiration from their elders. I find this to be true in many cases. When celebrities accept an award, they thank their mom, dad or mentors. What is it about our parents that inspire us to dedicate songs, books, or poetry to them? Is it because of the way that they raise us? Is it the morals that they have instilled in to our minds? Or is it the simple "mother- daughter" or " ...
Christina is not only dressed provocatively, but she also dances in a very crude manner. She is not only dancing erotically with guys, but also with girls. On MTV (Music Television) it was reported that, “Two posters seen in the video feature Thai script that translates to read “Thailand’s Sex Tourism” and “Young Underage Girls” – references to Thailand’s much-criticized, tourist-driven sex industry.” (Joe D’Angelo).
The signs can be seen while Christina, whom calls herself “X tina,” is boxing with another girl in the video. The video contains many women, including Christina, acting out an assortment of freakish male fantasies. Christina Aguilera isn’t the only pop princess who’s all grown up, Britney Spears is also making her fair share of crude music videos.
She started off with .”.. Baby One More Time,” where she was wearing the “private school girl gone bad” uniform, while telling her male audience to “hit me baby one more time.” But compared to her latest risky video “I’m a Slave for You,” .”.. Baby One More Time” looks almost angelic. But we have yet to see Britney fully clothed. Once again, in this video Britney has the bare midriff, and the tight jeans. This time though, she adds a fake tan, undergarments on the outside of her pants, and a dozen boys “dancing up on her.” At one point in the video, there are men all around her, groping her, and one of them manages to lick her, and Britney seems to be enjoying all this sick and twisted behavior.
Throughout the song, Britney can be heard panting, and breathing very hard, almost implying sexual intercourse and / or having an orgasm. Besides her slutty clothes, crude lyrics, and risqu’e dancing, the song itself talks about a concept of slavery, which was abolished many years ago. “I’m a slave for you/I cannot hold it/ I cannot control it/ I’m a slave for you/I won’t deny it/I’m not trying to hide it.” Is it all right for young girls to allow themselves to be controlled by their male counterparts as if they were slaves? And the rest of the song seems to reveal the rest of the diabolic plan for girls to be scandalous, immoral, sex freaks. Is this what we as women, are supposed to strive to be? Pop stars aren’t the only people in the music industry that have portrayed women negatively. Women in rap videos have been depicted very disapprovingly for many years. One rap video in particular shows women as simply sex objects.

The video is “Hot in Herre,” by the rap artist Nelly. The music video is chock full of scantily clad women, grinding with other men on the dance floor. The song encourages women to get naked, “Its getting hot in here/So take off all your clothes,” with a female singer responding with “I am getting so hot/I wanna take my clothes off.” At this point in the video, women begin taking their clothes off. The song just says to take your clothes off, but you notice that only women take their clothes off, and women are the only ones encouraged to take off their clothes..
