Conner energetically performs a song saying, “I'm so humble, I'm so humble, I'm so humble I'm a superstar.” This negates that he is humble by bragging about materialistic items such as fast expensive cars, being rich and having beautiful women. When Conner4real performs the song “Humble” with holograms of himself, which shows that Conner is arrogant and narcissistic. This is proven when Connor4real proposes to Ashley so that the media would think that he is a good person, instead of doing it out of love. During the performance, the word humble is on a huge screen behind Conner4real in hopes to emphasize how humble he really is. However, this contradicts the humble theme being that an individual would not go to Anne Frank’s home to take a poop in it. Nor would a humble individual include so many unnecessary members into their entourage such as a “perspective manipulator”. This is a short person he must take pictures with to make himself appear taller than what he really is. The lack of self-confidence is clearly shown in this scene telling the audience that many pop-stars are self-conscious. This also shows why Connor doesn’t act humble. In addition to that, Conner also has someone on his payroll that hits him in the testicles so that he would not forget where he came from. The audience would agree that humbleness comes naturally and it is a personality trait that money cannot

Adnan Syed was a pawn that the Baltimore detectives played with, a mere dupe to cast off as the true killer. Syed is like many Americans, he was never granted a fair trial. There is some actors that make Syed guilty, but perhaps it was just pure coincidence that got Adan wrapped up in this whole mess. One simply can't overlook the major factors that make him innocent enough to grant him a second trial. Adan has spent half of his life in prison, due to a wrongful conviction that happened many

Objectification of women and misogyny is a common trend in song lyrics, but it is often socially accepted and further perpetuated. Finding a song in which the roles are reversed and a woman depicts a man as a sex object is incredibly difficult because when women try to break norms in the music industry, they are often criticized. In “Blah Blah Blah” by Kesha, she reverses the typical gender roles in song lyrics by objectifying men. Kesha has her own struggles within the male-dominated music industry because her producer sexually abused her and trapped her into a record deal. However, Kesha lost her court case, which illuminates gender issues within the music industry and the larger society. In 2010 when Kesha’s songs were popular, people weren’t aware of her battle with her producer. Instead, her lyrics classified her as more of a party figure and people even saw her as “trashy.” This song

The Blurred Lines music video is truly a work of misogynistic art. The video highlights three young and vacant looking women wearing nothing but nude colored thongs posing and performing infantile actions such as riding a bike or licking an ice cream cone. Accompanying them are three grown men, fully dressed in tailored suits, standing around casually while they watch and touch on the scantily clad women that stomp past them . The set is a plain pink backdrop with props like stuffed animals and alphabet blocks. Robin Thicke understands the blatant misogyny of his video, stating that it is “a pleasure to degrade women” in his interview with men’s magazine GQ. He goes on to claim that as a man that is happily married he is the perfect person to degrade women in jest of the popular culture .

Among the 10 songs that were analyzed in 2016, some of the most common terms that were used to refer to women were “baby”, “broads”, “bitches”, “side bitch”, “lil mama”, “baby mama”, “wifey”, “hoe”, “girl”, “lady”, “woman” and “PYT” (Pretty Young Thing). Each individual song used either two or three of the listed terms when referring women. Furthermore, each song analyzed during this period contains lyrics that were directed towards women in positive ways (labeling them as “Queens”) and negative ways (viewing them as sexual objects). In addition, there were also song lyrics that referred to the way the male character perceives himself. One contradictory example is when artists make character comparisons with men who are stronger or more successful than them, while other artists dictate that their character is original and cannot be mirrored. Specifically, in his song “Panda”, Desiigner makes a hypermasculine reference towards himself in the line: “Man I’m the macho like Randy”. Randy Mario Poffo, also known as “Macho Man”, is an American professional wrestler who has been labeled as one of the greatest pro wrestlers in history. In the song “Broccoli” by D.R.A.M., the male artist’s lexicon perpetuates hegemonic masculinity through his demonstration of competitiveness, dominance, assertion of power
In 1974 the Weyenberg Shoe Manufacturing Company released an advertisement that depicted a woman lying naked on the floor behind a shoe, with the words “Keep her where she belongs...” pasted across the top. In March of 2013 musical artist Robin Thicke released a song titled “Blurred Lines,” and, with its catchy beat, it took the nation by storm. However, upon listening to the lyrics several people began to complain about the message of the song, one that perpetuates rape culture. A few days later in March the situation became even worse, when Thicke, along with T.I. and Pharrell, who were originally featured on the track, posted the music video to Youtube. In it, women are shown topless in nude thongs, crawling around on the floor and dancing
Many people associate sexist language with the music genre of rap and hip/hop, but the truth is that sexist language invades every style of music. While it is true that the lyrics to rap songs contain the most obvious derogatory terms towards women, research has found that popular pop music also includes language that can demoralize women or make women seem inferior to men. Women are often referred to as objects and even as possessions by artists, implying that even in this day and age females are still second-class compared to males. Some artists compare women to cars, others use their words to enforce their male dominance. Regardless of how popular an artist or song is promoting sexist lyrics shows that as a whole the public does not have a problem with demoralizing women. Numerous male musicians even use this sort of language as a marketing tactic, knowing that their lyrics will cause a controversy that could inevitably boost album sales.
