FLO RIDA "Low" ft T-Pain:
This song is about Flo Rida thinking about a girl "getting low" for him at a strip club.

Shawty had them apple bottom jeans (jeans)
Boots with the fur (with the fur)
The whole club was looking at her
She hit the floor (she hit the floor)
Next thing you know
Shawty got low, low, low, low, low, low, low, low

Whoa shawty yeah she was worth the money
Little mama took my cash
And I ain't want it back
The way she bent that back
Got all them paper stacks
Tattoo above her crack
I had to handle that
I was zoned in sexy woman

This song is degrading to woman and is offensive. Saying she was "worth the money" shows that Flo Rida looks at woman as more of an object than a human.

How does this song change woman's views?

• It degrades woman
• It makes us feel like objects instead of human
• Encourages woman to act in a promiscuous way
• Makes them think they are only wanted for sex
• Changes a woman's view on how she should be viewed

HOW DOES THIS SONG CHANGE MENS VIEW?

• It encourages them to treat woman as objects
• Shows them its ok to pay for woman
• Makes them think they dont need to respect woman
• Encourages strip clubs

How does this song reflect our culture?
"Low,"Like a lot of popular songs today, degrades women, idolizes money and praises alcohol. Most Flo Rida songs do.

I like this song because it is fun to dance to. I like that they refer to apple bottom jeans because I used to think those were cool. I never listened to the words but focused on the beat.

Woman! If we do not want to be treated like objects we should not conform into what theses songs say about us. We should flee from this music.
