Recently I was at my cousin's house. At one point he had a "pop hits station on". Though, I'd heard most of the popular songs listening to them still made me mad. No wonder our world isn't getting BETTER.
The iTunes charts have Snoop Dog's song, "Young, Wild, and Free" as number seven most bought single. The song is PATHETIC. It disgusts me what people feed their minds. The chorus contains the main lyrics,
"So what we get drunk, So what we smoke weed, we're just having fun, we don't care who sees."
Is that what life is about??????? ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!! All these songs are empty and worthless hits.
I've concluded that modern secular music consists of these topics: sex, drugs, money, romance, and heartbreak.
It's true! Adele's #1 selling album, "21" is about her boyfriend breaking up with her. Really? This is one of the most popular albums out there and has stayed at the top of the charts longer than any album since 1996.
When people listen to music, most of them listen to it as a kind of blind guide. It helps them through life. It cheers them up. Well, no wonder teenagers in a America are complete failures. All they feed themselves is junk. The songs speak clearly that we should, "just be free", or "let go". Is that what it's about???? NOOOO!
So many people are searching for something more and they are being fed lies! I respect so many Christian and Alternative artists that put depth into their lyrics. So few people are brave enough to break the chain.
I for one want to bring meaning to people through music. It is a powerful thing that shouldn't be misused.
