music video promote

1. That music videos may be hazardous to your health. More than 150,000 arrests of adolescents
for violent crimes occur each year. Hundreds of studies have linked exposure to media violence
to violent real-life behavior in adolescents. Violent videos showed a mean of six acts of violence
per 2-3-minute-long segment -- a total of 462 shootings, stabbings, punching, and kicking in the
76 videos. Large amount of violence is committed by black males on black males, maybe this

are treated almost as accessories: a means for rappers to prove that they have made it to the
top. In one of Trey Songz songs, he says “The money, cars, clothes, the hoes…I suppose…I just
want to be successful.” The chorus of this song is a perfect example of the mentality that artists
relay to their listeners.
