In the Mix . In The Mix was created by WNYC Radio. This special was funded by The Annenberg Public Policy Center of The University of Pennsylvania. We hear from a record company executive and popular artists, M.C. Lyte and The Roots, about how the images of barely dressed women, fancy cars and unlimited alcohol are used in music videos to sell albums. Girls in bikinis, alcohol, fancy cars, guns.
Women are possessions, objects.
These images sell albums. Cars, models, mansions, champagne. Attitudes towards girls, violence, the need for expensive possessions. Don't purchase the albums, write letters to the record label, call radio stations and complain. In the Mix reporters, Andrea Barrow and Eddie Vichaidith, learn from a television editor about cutting interviews, montages and the use of music.
