The document discusses representations of women in hip hop music videos and strategies for developing a more sophisticated artist image. Typically, hip hop videos portray women as sex symbols through revealing clothing and dancing. However, the document advocates rejecting this mainstream stereotype by subverting conventions like showing the artist's status through lighting, clothing and background rather than women. It also discusses gathering audience feedback through video clips and relating the track list to the album title to tell a story of redemption.

image of women in most hip hop videos are
seen as sex symbols and they portray this by
showing skin and dancing around sexually.
This stereotypes has been set by the genre
itself as it is conventional for the mainstream,
and in order to be successful you have to live
