MTV Bans Kanye West “Monster” Video

Mr West’s “Monster” was no match for the suits at MTV. The network responded to feminine activists Sharon Haywood and Melinda Tankard’s petition and agreed not to air the video. The clip leaked onto the ‘net last December.

“The mainstreaming of videos like this increases desensitized and callous attitudes toward violence against women,” said Reist, one of the campaign originators. “Young people are seeing images and absorbing harmful messages which glamorize misogyny and brutalize women. Women are reduced to sex-doll like playthings. So great is the level of desensitization that the barbaric treatment of women and girls is seen as normal and to be expected. We decided to run this campaign because we wanted to challenge the status quo.”

If you still havent catch a glimpse of the vid you cann jump in to rapradar you'll find the vid that was on YouTube.

Haywood and Reist's work is far from over, as Universal Music Group still hasn't responded.

"Monster" is not the usual scantily-clad, hyper-sexualized women washing expensive cars with even more expensive champagne. The video features West, Jay-Z, Rick Ross, and Nikki Minaj surrounded by the "sexy" corpses of women in lingerie. Other women dangle from the ceiling by chains. Behind Jay-Z, a dead, naked woman lies with her mouth wide open, bluntly indicating her last act was a sexual one. Ross erotically eats a plate of raw meat from between a female corpse's legs. And West practically rapes the dead bodies of two women in bed. The message of the video is pretty clear: women are sex objects and it can be erotic when they are killed in violent, sexual ways.

Chris Brown Allowed to Be Near Rihanna

An LA County judge lifted the
terms of the protective order against
Chris Brown on Feb. 21
allowing him to be closer to his ex-
girlfriend Rihanna.
The restraining order was reduced
to a Level One order, granting him the
right to have contact with Rihanna so long as he does not
"harass, annoy or molest her"

Rihanna's lawyer further added that his client had no opposition to make concerning the ruling.

Guess Chris working hard on his probation terms did get him somewhere. s/o
