With all the buzz surrounding Beyonce's new album, I'm curious to know if you're purchasing it for your little ladies for Christmas? I am a mother of a 12 year old boy and I still monitor what he listens to and watch. To be completely honest I love Beyonce's talent, but I find myself wanting and wishing she would do so much more with it. I know she's a "Grown Woman", but you're a "rich" woman from listeners like us. If I were in her position I would try my best to censor at least 50% of my music. Where's the self respect? As she matures into an older woman I was expecting more mature music. I don't want to listen to how she's drunk on her husbands love or anything else for that matter. Again, she's super talented, but i would love to see her use her talent for a better cause (REAL MUSIC).
I wholeheartedly believe that children are influenced by what they see and hear. When I was about 9 years of age my aunt wrote a song called "Children Imitate". She had us singing and dancing along with this catchy tune. At that time I didn't fully understand or care what she was saying, but now, I'm completely in agreeance with her wise words. Thank you Aunt Pat!
It saddens me to turn on the radio (rare occasion, almost never) and hear all the vulgarity and sexual content. Is this what our country's entertainment has stooped to? Back in my days there were SOME vulgar artists with SOME vulgar songs on their album, but now it's almost EVERY artists with EVERY song on their album being vulgar. These artists are taking the term sex, drugs and rock & roll to a new level...
Maybe I'm too old school. I don't know and i don't care because if I fall for any and everything I stand for nothing. I choose to take a stand and not be a "STAN" anymore.
We need more artists like Pink....I would love to work on a children's cd with her!
What are your thoughts?
VS.
