Parents need to know that Timbaland is quite explicit. There is strong language and some sexy lyrics 'Bounce, like yo a*s has the hiccups'. But also some lyrics that show acceptence 'I like you just the way you are'. Best Songs: Scream, The Way I Are, Bounce GoodReviews330

What Parents Need to Know
About Shock Value
Parents need to know that this album contains explicitly sexual, violent, and scatological lyrics, and strong language, alongside strong poetry and vibrant musical arrangements. Paying surprising tribute to many genres including old spirituals and 1970s rock and roll, the album is always passionate, always fascinating – but also gleefully sexist.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about Timbaland's apparent obsession with certain body parts. Why don't most women sing about guys bouncing around on the dance floor, for example? How can songs be sexy without being sexist?

Not very good.
This cd was hyped so much for its hits Give it to Me and The Way I Are. I really like rap but this was bad. The songs were awful. The only good song was Apologize but it isnt even a rap song!!!!! I hope Timbaland does better on his next cd. The language was a little bit unappropriate. It had a lot of f words and mfs that were un-needed.
