MUSICAL FACTS: We are what we eat, view and listen to

Bobby "Tre9" Herring is Co-Owner of popular Hip-Hop website, http://www.dasouth.com/, and Founder of  Eyes On Me Inc., a 501C3 non-profit organization, 'committed to creating a positive environment using Biblical principles and standards, to shape youth culture, for lifelong success and stability in the world.' He is also Owner of Much Luvv Records, and is currently on a mission, with others, to clean up the inFILTHtration of mainstream radio which plays music that is "raping our youth of their innocence". 

 

Operating through 'The Youth Are Listening Campaign', Tre9 is inviting and encouraging everyone, who wants to see real change in what children, and we, as adults, are subject to listen to on the radio, to begin a campaign of forwarding Federal Communications Commission (FCC) complaints against local radio stations that give airplay to songs of a sexual, violent nature, and songs that promote a lack of morality within our society and among our youth. The initial campaign is targeting complaints against airplay of Twista's song "Let's Make a Movie", featuring Chris Brown. The song is of a very graphic sexual nature and describes the making of a movie, which documents sexual acts with a woman. 


Between now and March 8th Tre9 plans to forward at least 1000 FCC complaint forms to mainstream radio stations in Houston, TX. If you would like to assist in efforts to bring about change please contact Tre9 at tretothenine@gmail.com for forms, complete and fax to 1-866-418-0232. You are only required to provide your name and address on these forms.


You can also expand the campaign by sending FCC complaint forms against radio airplay for Twista and Chris Brown's, Let's Make a Movie song (or any offensive songs) to your own local radio station. Here is the link for the form: http://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/cgb/fcc475B.cfm


Please lend your support and help to be a part of real change that shall impact our children's children.


Here's Tre9's direct appeal for the Youth Are Listening Campaign. PLEASE ALSO CHECK SOON FOR THE UPCOMING WEBSITE FOR THE CAMPAIGN http://www.youtharelistening.com/ (under construction)
