I really don't think that musicians should have to censor their music because they should have the freedom to create whatever they want. I also do not think that the artists should be so concerned with the whole loosing money over censorship situation because their music should be created for art and entertainment purposes. I know that everyone needs to make a living somehow but having one of their songs censored is not going to make or break their career.
I really think that parents need to be the ones who are censoring their children from music that they do not approve of. It is the parents job to be aware of what music is out there and what their kids are listening too. It is important for them to control the what their children are being exposed to and need to do the censoring themselves.
I do not think that artists are economically hurt by censorship because artists that are that well known will have enough money already to not even flinch when their music gets censored. Obviously music needs to be censored when it is played on the radio and the music needs to be awarer of its worldwide audience.
Hey good job on your blog this week!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you when you said that artist should not have to censor their music. They really should be allowed to say what they want on their songs, most people like that. They want to hear what the artist is really trying to say they do not want to guess one what they mean when they censor their music. If an artist is made to censor their music they cannot express themselves how they want to, and therefore their music will not be as great. Music has to be made from their heart and soul and if they are made to censor it then they have to go back and change some things. And then the song does not have the same meaning as it did in the first place. I also do not think that artist should worry about their money so much because when they start t do that they will lose a lot of fans because when artist start to create music just for money it shows in their work. You can tell just by hearing a song if they are doing it for money or because it truly is their passion to create music. Again, great job!
Well I have to say that I agree with you whole heartdly. Music is Music, if we go and censor the heck out of it, well then it just isn' quite music now is it? I mean sure it will still have a beat and lryics butt he soul of the Music has now been changed. I have to agree with some of our readings out of M&C, they describe the very talented Eminem, now that artist has no problem changing the lryics to censor his song, but not all artist can do that. I agree intirely that the censorship boils down to the parents. If the parents would enlighten their children at a younger age and teach about a little thing called RESPECT than maybe just maybe the music they hear would not influence them.
