More History

The first music video on The MTV channel was ‘Music killed the radio star’. This is relevant because it talks about how music videos were taking over the radio because at that time people used to only listen to music through the radio but now it was available on TV with a video so that’s why radio became discarded. There has been a huge change in music due to new technology and the way we consume media. This has now resulted in new demand such as niche musical outlets. Now it is essential for recording artist to have a video with their music because otherwise they could lose their audience. Music videos caused controversy because institutions used the female sex appeal excessively and people said that it was just another way of making money.
