Parents need to know that this is a compilation of recent hits targeted to tweens and young teens that contains no surprises. The fact that we've all heard these songs a million times may dilute the power of the innuendo in some of the lyrics.
Positive messages:There's Bow Wow's sexist posturing, of course. The "N" word is used once, but in the Black Eyed Peas' anthem to peace, love, and understanding.
Violence:The only violence is decried on The Black Eyed Peas' "Where is the Love."
Sex:There's just enough explicit sexuality for parents of sensitive kids (or sensitive parents) to take note.
Language:There are offensive words in a couple of the songs.
Consumerism:Nothing obvious, except for the entire project.
Now is an awful compilation. No good music on here to waste your money. I mean rap plus Simple Plan plus Good Charlotte plus Avril equals a horrible comp.
