Is Nudity In Music Videos Artistic?

Newkie · 07-06-2013, 06:52 PM

Just like sexy ladies, or mandem for that part, it just covers/makes up for the ****e song itself really. There are artistic ones for sure, but if we're talking Timberlake/Thicke then meh...Not that i'm complaining.

Sex and art have always coincided, and the human body isn't meant to be ashamed of. Nudity in music videos to me represents a sort of rebellion against the very kind of people who view the body as shameful thing.

I wasn't offended in any way by any of it, i just saw it for what it is, a cheap way of promoting your new substandard single.

I disagree with everything you said in your post but specifically this part.

You are blinded by your hate of those artists to actually see the videos for what they are.

Having naked people in a music video has nothing to do with how good or bad a song is. The song exists long before the music video's treatment is even thought about.

I'm glad that you disagree with everything I said, I would have had to have said exactly the opposite of what I actually did say for you to agree with me, and then we'd both be wrong wouldn't we.

At least this way one of us is right.

If it goes with the song and the artist then yes........
If not, then it's out of place.......and then it's tacky

The bottom line is...Sex sells.........and every artist knows this and wants their song at number one no matter how they get it there.........
Any publicity is good publicity........

There is no right or wrong when it comes to opinions. Exactly the reason why I said that I disagree with you. My opinion happens to differ from yours and I explain why.

It's no big deal to me, honestly. I much prefer nudity over "bitches" dancing around in mini-skirts and pretending that their ass holds some sort of power inside of it. Props to you if you know how to dance but I just can't dig that.

Otherwise, yeah. I think nudity is an art form for the most part and it also helps express the meaning of the song better in some cases. Others, unfortunately, they just know that it's what the public want. America is in a comfortable place right now, anyway with nudity and I say hell yeah, because being sexual used to be so shunned upon.

To me, the human body isn't sexual unless one makes it sexual and I personally think that no one should be offended by seeing naked bodies (we all have bodies and they're just bodies and idk it just like doesn't matter to me)

You aren't the target audience for that so of course you won't be able to feel the power that IS inside of their booties.

Somewhere in America Miley is still twerkin'
