Summary/Abstract: Music videos have long been an important part of human culture and are popular in contemporary culture. The harsh themes and proclivity to encourage violence in music videos have drawn criticism. Violence in popular culture refers to activities meant to seriously injure another character's physical appearance. For better or worse, the mass media has a tremendous impact on the general public's opinions, attitudes, behaviors, and time use. The audience and the followers of the religion are unprepared for the violence that is nearly entirely intertwined throughout the music when they see snippets being listened to for relaxation, fun, and tranquility. Because a movie's genre and subject matter are known to and generally preferred by the audience, whereas a music video clip's content cannot be known in advance and cannot, therefore, be desired by the public. As a result, it is thought that the absence of stimuli in music video clips, such as smart signals or protective symbols, constitutes a serious deficiency that exposes the viewer to risk. Due to this environment, the goal of this study is to assess the connection between new media, violent behaviors, and video clips that look into interventions in this area. Reviewing earlier studies that have been done on this subject is crucial. These procedures must be followed in order to guide ongoing research efforts and pinpoint areas for future study. A greater understanding of the relationship between new media and violent behaviors is very required because new media is so ingrained in so many people's lives. Understanding the connection as a whole will improve the chances that interventions will be successful.
