What Parents Need to Know

About Ms. Kelly

Parents need to know that Kelly Rowland's new CD explores the ins and outs of love from every angle: sexy flirtation, lose-yourself addiction, lost love's regret, and girlfriend-power independence. Soft innuendo of the "lay me down and take it slow" variety, along with a bottle of wine here and there, set a romantic mood without ever getting too explicit.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about Kelly Rowland's career as a member of Destiny's Child, and now a successful solo artist. Many fans choose favorites when a group breaks up -- does being a Beyonce fan, for example, mean you can't like Kelly too? When your friends are on the outs with each other at school, do you feel like you have to pick sides?

    Good album for teens.

    I think this album has some nice song like "Comeback" and "Work". But there are mild sex-related songs.

    Okay

    This album is a little bit too slow for my taste, however the upbeat tracks are good as gold. There is some sexual content and a few narrowly avoided swear words along with a few mentions to wine. Pause for 11+.
