The answer

It is not permissible to send songs or pictures of male and female artists that involve nudity, immodesty, and mixing [of sexes], because this falls under cooperating in spreading evil and indecency, which is forbidden by Allah's saying: "And do not cooperate in sin and aggression. And fear Allah; indeed, Allah is severe in penalty." Therefore, it is not permissible to work for a company that does such things, unless it is out of dire necessity. The money earned from this work is unlawful and must be disposed of by spending it on the welfare of Muslims.
