What Parents Need to Know
About Man on the Moon: The End of Day
Parents need to know although Kid Cudi sings mellow, thought-provoking rhymes, there's too much profanity and sexual references to make this album OK for kids. Talk of pot-smoking and women's bodies, plus lots of the "N" word make this album a no-no for young listeners. To Cudi's credit, he does offer up positive messages about working through emotions and doesn't delve into violence.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about lyrics that aren't appropriate for younger ears. Sometimes lyrics can be hard for parents to decode. Do you think slang words are used so only a certain group or generation can know their meanings?
- One song on the album takes a tame popular song and reinterprets it to make it sexually charged. What are your family's guidelines about racy lyrics?
- Families can talk about hip-hop music and age-appropriate messages. If an album isn't violent or mean-spirited, but still includes lots of profanity and mature messages, should it still be off limits? Why do you think rappers usually include bad language in their music? Do you think they would be labeled "uncool" if they didn't?
