The title of this blog sounds familiar, doesn't it? Of course we all know this famous song by Akon because it became a huge hit this year. It appauls me how such a dirty and obscene song could become such a classic. The title alone is degrading "I Wanna ___ You." The radio trys to cover it up and say its "I Wanna Love You", but we all know the real meaning. The sad part is in today's society this is what we consider a love song. Why is it that every song that becomes popular involves the use of drugs, crimes, cheating and sex? What ever happened to singing about sweet romance or reaching for your dreams? What agitates me the most is the disrespect these songs have towards women. Women are no longer referred to as beautiful and special, but rather sexy and b*tches. Male Rappers, in particular, try to portray this trashy image of women in the public eye. The way they describe their encounters with women is so graphic and rude towards females. In fact, their descriptions are utterly disturbing. Picture this, your at a club with the lights flashing and your dancing. What song do you typically hear? "Smack That" and "Buy you a Drink." Both songs imply that a man will meet you at a club and take you home with him. I don't see how females can dance to music that sheds them in a negative light. They treat women with no respect. These rappers infer they will "Buy you a drink" and then get lucky with you. An article I find quite intriguing relating to this topic can be viewed at http://www.dailybruin.ucla.edu/archives/id/41608/. Take the time to read it and see what a disgrace today's top ten in the music industry truly is to humanity.
