Music Today: Not For Kids

Here are is the survey for my speech. 

1. When do you usually listen to the radio; around what time?

2. Have you heard of lyrics that go like this;

·         “Come here rude boy, boy, can you get it up? Come here rude boy, boy, is you big enough? Take it, take it, baby, baby. Take it, take it, love me, love me.” – Rude Boy by Rihanna

·         “Let's have some fun, this beat is sick. I wanna take a ride on your disco stick. Don’t think too much, just bust that kick. I wanna take a ride on your disco stick.” – Love Game by Lady Gaga

·         “I like your ice cream, and you can lick my lollipop.” ­– Lollipop by Dada

·         “I said no more teachers, and no more books. I got a kiss under the bleachers, hoping that nobody looks. Lips like liquorish, tongue like candy. Excuse me miss but can I get you out your panties?” – My First Kiss by 3OH!3

·         “They say all teenagers scare, the living s**t out of me. They could care less, as long as someone will bleed. So darken your clothes or strike a violent pose. Maybe they’ll leave you alone but not me.” –Teenagers by My Chemical Romance

What kind of video do you imagined in your head?

3. If you have younger siblings below the age of 12 years old, how would you react if they sing/listen to these kinds of songs?

4. Continue from question 2, how would you react if your younger siblings watch the video you imagined in your head?

5. How would you explain to a child when they asks;
·         What is a disco stick?
·         What’s a pussy?
·         What’s f***/ b****?

6. How would you react if your younger siblings who are below the age of 12, says foul words towards you, or towards your parents?

6. What’s your opinion on censoring foul or obscene words in music? Is it effective?

7. What do you think of modern songs nowadays? Is it safe for kids to hear?

8. Do think that radio stations should be more cautious when creating a playlist for their listeners?

9. Do you agree that songs nowadays spread negativity such as stereotypes of women, violence, sex and such?
