Why We Rated This for Ages 13–14

What to watch out for

• Messages:

  Lots of playa talk and talk about the club scene, dancing, sexual innuendo.
• Violence:

  Nothing explicit: the song "Church" refers to fighting, but no graphic words or details ("I then turn into rude dude man/why you had to mess up the night/now we got to fight/I'm a knock out ya lights").
• Sex:

  Some sexual lyrics, playa talk, strip club dancing: "So sexual/she was flexible professional," "I threw her legs on my shoulders/had to fold her like a pornography poster," "tattoo above her crack," "Even if you like to flirt/lift up your skirt," "make love to each other after we play fight," "sex so good I can freak you in my sleep." There's a girl moaning on "Ching-a-ling."
• Language:

  Original songs have vulgar language, but this CD is edited, virtually clean of obscenities. There are minor words like "damn."
• Consumerism:

  References to alcohol, shoe, car, and soap brands; other celebrities are mentioned.
• Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

  Lots of talk about the club/bar scene and drinking: "drunk off Remy and Sprite," "Henny and cola," and "Patron on the rocks."
