but you could get the general jist of the words. "I Wanna Love You" is extremely dirty with tons of explitives, but "Smack That" is one of my favorite songs of all time, and downright catchy with the assistance of EMinem. An exquisite, 5-Star album for ages 14+

What Parents Need to Know
About Konvicted
Parents need to know that Akon doesn't shy away from referencing guns and graphic sex in his lyrics, or including swear words and the "N" word. He also brings depth, soul, and some wonderful guests to these African-influenced tracks.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the fact that some of Akon's songs seem to celebrate guns and violence. There are some vivid images in lyrics such as "Cause I done see the block / break down tears / and I done seen the cops / break my peers / trying to hold on / a couple more years / trying not to get / blown away." Can you think of better ways to solve problems than with violence? How are the police effective? How are they not?

It's Iffy But It's Worth LIstening To
Parents, with this CD there is some iffy content, but if you feel the need just talk to your kids because if they want it there is absolutley no reason why they shouldn't have it. As long as you know your kid is mature enough to listen to this type of music I think it is okay.

really good music
i wanna love you is really bad for people under the age of 17. says the f word a lot. talks about having sex (of course sense it has the f word in it a lot). says says a lot of other bad words in the soundtrack

Singles make up for the lame filler tracks...
Sexual Content: Excplicit. "I see you winding and grinding, up on the pole, I know you see me looking at you and you already know I wanna f**k you", "Smack that till you get sore",and "The way she climbs up and down them poles". Violence: Some gunshot effects and violent refrences. Language: F**k, s**t, and p**sy used frequently. The "N" word used infrequently throughout the album. Social Behaviour: Not the best of messages. Commercialism: Not an issue. Drugs/Alcohol/Tobacco: A few mentions of buying a bottle. Konvicted by Akon Off for 15+ Smack That and I Wanna F**k You are the best tracks here. I suggest buying them and leaving the rest of the album out if you are 15 and over. Edited version avaible at Target and Wal-Mart. Enjoy!
