Why We Rated This on for Ages 8 and Up

The good stuff

  • Messages:

    Corbin wants us all to get along. He promotes friendship and self-esteem, and not giving up when things get tough.
 

What to watch out for

  • Violence:

    Not an issue.
  • Sex:

    Not an issue.
  • Language:

    Not an issue.

    Packaging is surprisingly restrained -- for a Disney product.
  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    Not an issue.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About Another Side

Parents need to know that Corbin Bleu's lyrics are predictably tame (if not impressive) with a gentle "I'm OK the way I am, and so are you" message. But, it's weird how the teens in his world have no trouble getting into after-hours dance clubs.

    Totally worth hearing

    look I know this guy has big hair but does that really have anything to do with his music? (if you're confused please see one of the adult reviews that should clear things up) The music isn't half bad and he really does a good job of keeping his focus on who he is trying to sell this cd to(young teens).

    lamo

    well, though it is true that there is no inapropriate content in this, corbin's dorkiness may scare little children. HONESTLY, HE CANNOT SING!!! he should stick to acting. - but then again, he does a pretty BAD job of ACTING LIKE HE CAN SING.
