Why We Rated This iffy for Ages 11–12

What to watch out for

  • Messages:

    Some wearisome sexism; but an overall positive message about dancing.

  • Violence:

    Not an issue.

  • Sex:

    Innocent lines such as "shake it for me, baby."

  • Language:

    Not an issue.

  • Consumerism:

    Unavoidable with a movie soundtrack -- may hold some kind of record for sneaker product placement on "Vans."

  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    A couple of references to drinking.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About Stomp the Yard Soundtrack

Parents need to know that the selection of songs on this soundtrack doesn't push the envelope in terms of content. There's a bit of "shake it for me, baby" here and there and a few references to fighting, but nothing really scary or explicitly violent. Lyrics do contain a fair amount of product placement -- there's an entire song, "Vans," about sneaker brands. Also, fans of the film may be disappointed because not every song is included on this CD.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about why movie soundtracks often include a different selection of songs than those heard in the film itself. Why do you think producers choose to do this, and how do you feel about it? Do you think the Vans brand pays for its product placement here or just got some lucky free advertising? Do you think this kind of marketing in a song is more effective at selling products than a TV commercial?
