Why We Rated This iffy for Ages 14–15

The good stuff

  • Messages:

    Lots of playful flirtation -- not all parents will approve.
 

What to watch out for

  • Violence:

    Not an issue.

  • Sex:

    Sexually-charged banter and flirting: "Move your body around like a nympho," "You expect me to just let you hit it."

  • Language:

    Not an issue.

  • Consumerism:

    A couple of brand names are mentioned (Rolex).

  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    Not an issue.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About Loose

Parents need to know that there's a fair amount of sexual innuendo on the aptly named Loose. Lyrics include sexually charged banter such as "Move your body around like a nympho."

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about Furtado's move from folk-pop to a more sexy sound; which style do they prefer? Families listening together can forget about attributing much meaning to the lyrics, and get some exercise while enjoying the hypnotic dance beats.
