A sociopragmatic study JF - Texts in Process JA - tep VL - 5 IS - 2 SE - Research papers DO - 10.17710/tep.2019.5.2.7floreshernandez UR - https://asice.se/index.php/tep/article/view/93 AB - The influence that excercise over the explicit discourse of songs currently fosters besides a dose of violence towards other human being, a massive harassment about how to objectify women and thus generates sexist imagery. The radio, as a mean of massive broadcasting, causes power, because its capacity to create auditory imagery, gives this mean a visual potential, better that the same  TV  where videos of these songs are released. This current paper offers a  pragmatic, sociopragmatic and semiotic discoursive perspective about how a ethos, a discoursive imagery is constructed where young people mainly, see their desire to obtain status, power, women and beyond that recognition before a peer group, through the lyrics of five songs, the content in the story being told and the video that comes along each song.
