On the left hand side of the webpage, there will be links to navigate easily through our website. This links will prove our agrument and get our point across. The last link on the hompage will be the works cited page and a list of people who help us with our agrument. Our website is going to be very user-friendly. It will not just be for the tech-savy. Our audience are teenagers and adults.

You guys should think about maybe putting some examples of the videos on you web and talk about how those video exploit the women in them.
You say the links will prove your points, but what exactly will they say? What are your specific arguments? Also, I agree with the above post. You should provide links to youtube videos or something as examples. I think a webpage will be an effective way to argue this topic.
The basic layout of your webpage sounds like an effective way to present your argument, but you still need to develop the argument. I agree with the suggestions to have examples of videos on your page. It may be smart to embed the videos onto your webpage and each video directly followed by analysis. Finally, it may be smart to order the videos in a way that relates to a point in your argument. An example would be to arrange the videos chronologically and to show how exploitation of women has increased since a certain year.
I agree with everyone else. You need to put some videos to show how women are being exploited in rap videos. A webpage will work though, because you will be able to have a lot of media to support your argument.
To add to the other comments, you guys should focus on proving how women are exploited. Maybe even use music videos that do and do not exploit women (like a compare and contrast) to prove the success of the video by exploiting women
My suggestion for you all is to include the most important and appealing information on the home page of your web site. If you engage the viewer from the beginning then they will use the links to see what your website is about.
I like how you have targeted a specific audience and are going to construct an easily accessible site.
I think it would be good if you added embedded videos into your website so you don't have to clink links. This just makes the browsing experience better. And even thought the videos will obviously be exploiting women, you still need to talk about each individually.
I specifically asked for two paragraphs. You only did half of the assignment. This is incomplete.
