The purpose of this research is to analyze the media representation of women in the radio music offer of the two radio stations with the largest audience in Santa Marta, a city located in the Colombian Caribbean region. The methodology used was the content analysis on a sample of 120 songs. The findings show that a significant percentage of the songs promote sexualization and female objectification, violence against women, and misogyny. Additionally, it was possible to establish that there is a scarce participation of women as composers and interpreters of songs.

Palabras clave : content analysis; gender; sexualization; misogyny; media representation.
