    i got the edited version

    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+

    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.

    Great Album

    My favorite songs are Smack That, I Wanna Love You, Don't Matter and Never Took The Time. I like how Akon put more melody into the Hip-Hop Genre.

    akon

    i love akon. i love his unique voice. but is it possible for one rapper. just one rapper not to have the explicit content sticker. this is loaded with language, sex, and violence. is this what we are growing up to be. R-RATED material. stay away

    Auditory Pornography

    I am appalled that my daughter was allowed to buy this CD. When I read the lyrics to some of the songs I was embarassed. This CD is basically pornography on a CD infused with violence. As far as a child listening to this CD, there is no good reason for it. I am ashamed that my daughter's father thought this was a reasonable choice for a teenage girl.

    REALLY BAD

    I think that there is like one appropreiete song on this album which is Don't Matter. I own that song. But I think Smack That, I Wanna Love you, they are too graphic and it is sick the way they talk about women these days. I really hate it! I think Akon is a very bad role model for my generation! He shows young kids that women are basically "toys" and you can pay them to have sex with you or you can treat them how ever you want to treat them. It isn't right and I think Akon is just screaming PERV, PERV!!! I like two of his songs, Don't Matter and Lonely. I think that Akon's music has a catchy little rythum, beat whatever but the lyrics are over the top! I can't believe how explicit they are. And I wanna Love you is so explicit that it can't even be played on the radio, they had to make a cleaner version that was I wanna LOVE you not I wanna F*** you. The song really had to be changed to become appropriete for the radio. This album really isn't right for any one and I almost want to say I hate all of Akon's lyrics except for two!

    Akon is awesome!

    Really awesome music. Smack dat' is pretty sexual,even in the edited version, but still a good song. I recommend the edited version for my age group.

    well I have love akon for long time but not right for kids in my age.My parents say that smack that song is bad for me to listen to but I did'nt care about that,but when I have kids I am not letting my kids listen smack that song or any bad songs that is not good for my kids to listen!I just want my kids to wait till they are older to listen because they can get to listen whatever they want.I am trying to keep my kids not to listen bad stuff from other people.please e-mail me back and it doe'nt hurt me.

    Good CD, Skip a few songs

    This is really good CD and I don't think theres really that much wrong. He hardly says the F word at all expet for in the song I wanna love you so i think you should probably skip that song. Most kids wont understand smack that so i dont think it matters if they listen to it. Even though he talks about guns and violence, it dosn't really affect me in anyway.

    Heard it

    This is a totally average CD. He couldn't do anything better. At school last year this boy on my bus wouldn't stop playing it. Sometimes really annoying.

    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!
