Summary
Music is an important part of people’s lives because it has the ability to change one’s mood, inspire one to become what he/she desires, motivate one to reach for his/her goals, and help one relate better to others. However, with good comes the bad because recent studies have shown that the graphic and violent lyrics contained in rock music negatively impact people especially adolescents. Children are more prone to behave violently if they hear violence being glorified and glamorized in music. Why does rock’n’roll have a history of being equalized with violence, hate, drugs, alcohol, sex? How can it affect people?
