What to watch out for

  • Violence:

    "Like A" is the only song that contains violent lyrics: "if you say get off me then I might have to beat on you" and "I shoulda slit yo (bleeped out)."
  • Sex:

    Some sexual innuendo and references in "Like A" and "My R&B" ("take you to the crib so I can hit like A," "do it on the floor in the bathroom," "head on the bed/against the headboard/legs in the air").
  • Language:

    Not an issue.
  • Consumerism:

    "My R&B" references numerous R&B groups and artists.
  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    Not an issue.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About Randy Jackson's Music Club Vol. I

Parents need to know that this is a compilation produced by lovable "dawg" American Idol judge Randy Jackson. One song, "Like A," features some questionable and detailed sexual content in terms of "hitting it" in multiple places, but the rest of the album is clean and touches on every musical style from country to R&B.

Families Can Talk About

Does the fact that Randy Jackson put out this album make it more interesting, even though he doesn't sing on it?
