One of the most influential factors in a young persons’ life, I believe, is music of choice. In this day and age, teenagers are very impressionable. They think that by taking on the lifestyle that a musician pretends to have will help them be accepted. This lifestyle that musicians portray can be extremely enticing to a teenager, but kids fail to recognize that musicians are also actors who portray an image to entice the younger generation to buy their music so that they can boost their album sales.
I believe that the record labels selling the music are well aware of the impact that music has on the younger generation. If they take away the image of a musician, then it would be very hard to sell albums that are based on image. Gangster rappers need to act like they are gangsters and death metal rockers need that hard core, bad-to-the-bone image, or teenagers will not be as easily influenced by their music, and record sales would plummet.
It is sad to see all of these younger children who dress in dark clothing, makeup, and earrings all over them and other groups dressing in big clothes and acting like they come from the ghetto because they think they will fit in. kids need to be made aware of the fact that the lifestyle that these musicians portray are only to help sell albums, not to be confused with reality.
