Music today has changed a lot in
recent years. For example the audience for music has changed dramatically and
also don’t forget how much the topic of the songs have changed. There are so
many songs in today’s society have become more and more about sex and drugs and
partying. They don’t care about who hears it. For example they play these songs
on the radio without caring who hears or listens to that radio station.
Music today has become a lot more
sexist. (http://cupoequality.blogspot.com/2015/11/obsessive-themes-in-jealous-nick-jonas.html)
This blog post by Rachel Maly about the song Jealous by Nick Jonas is a great
example of this. Today when people write songs it isn’t to express feelings as
much anymore it’s just to get their song on the top charts to get more people
to listen to it to get more money.
If some singers and song writers
actually thought about who and why they are writing the song or singing it songs
today might be a little different. If there is no reason or story behind the
song then there is no reason to really sing it, is there? It just becomes a
waste of time.
Maybe if they took time to think
about what they are writing or even just what the words mean today's songs would
be more appropriate and okay for little children who listen to the radio with
their parents. Even little children who can’t yet understand what the words or
songs mean still isn’t a good idea to have them hear it.
