Women often say men don't express emotions, but listen to the love ballads by popular male vocalists and you'll hear some heart wrenching feelings pouring out. Today's guest, the popular singer Dwele, with fans among the hip hop generation as well as the R & B crowd, discusses how today's music influences attitudes about relationships. Do the more sexually graphic tunes with emphasis on physical pleasure and less focus on personal feelings influence youth to seek out such superficial relationships? Do love ballads help men recognize their sensitivity and strive to be more loving towards women? Can music influence woment to lower their own moral standards and accept relationships that are little more than "one night stands" if a popular song encourages it? As Dwele prepares to entertain audiences in Africa, he looks at the cultural impact of music on expectations in relationships, and how a song can heal the hurt and help couples reconcile, if the words truly come from the heart.
