Music That Kids Shouldn’t Get Into…

 Here’s Are Some Music That Kids Shouldn’t Get Into…

• Biz Markie got this often during the latter half of his life, since he played a major role on Yo Gabba Gabba!. Around the peak of that show's popularity, people would often take their kids to his concerts, thinking his music would be similar to what's heard on the show.
• Bowling for Soup did the theme song for Phineas and Ferb (and lead singer Jaret Reddick even voices a character on the show), and also did songs for lots of kids movies, so they must be kid-friendly right? Though they did Bowdlerize some of their songs for Radio Disney airplay, the unedited versions of the songs aren't really kid-friendly
• Beautiful World" was featured on the Starbucks Coffee-exclusive kids compilation CD Music For Little Hipsters (yes, that's really the name of it). The music video features footage of wars, along with footage of kids starving in poor countries. Someone at Rhino or Starbucks should have really checked the lyrics for the lines "It's not for me!" and "Not me!"
• Fall Out Boy has always attracted a fairly large amount of teenagers and the older crowd due to their  lyrics. That didn't stop Kidz Bop for wanting to put "Dance, Dance" on Kidz Bop 10. The band and their manager weren't pleased, especially since Kidz Bop technically didn't need their permission to use it. Kidz Bop eventually dumped the track from the list. Later on, "Sugar, We're Goin' Down" got away with being used for the trailers of the Tim Allen movie Zoom: Academy for Superheroes and eleven years after this incident, the group would appear in the second Teen Titans Go! TV Movie, The Day the Night Stopped Beginning To Shine And Became Dark Even Though It Was the Day, though the latter was because one of the band member's children was a huge fan of the show.
• There is a Kidz Bop version of "Boulevard of Broken Dreams." The title alone should have given them an inkling that this wasn't the sort of fun, upbeat material that belongs on a Kidz Bop CD, but the lyrics make it abundantly clear.
• One music magazine given to students as early as middle school had, in one of their issues, an article on the musical of American Idiot.
• Justin Timberlake gets this a lot. Yes, he got his start on The All-New Mickey Mouse Club and he played Branch in and wrote a song for Trolls, but most of his songs aren't exactly family-friendly.
• When filk-rapper Luke Ski appeared at a Harry Potter new-release celebration, he was asked to perform each of his songs with Potter references. Evidently the event's organizers hadn't listened to the rest of these songs, as Luke had to improvise alternative lyrics on the fly to avoid exposing grade-school kids to lines
• many people seem to be under the impression that Macklemore is a "family-friendly" rapper. Of course, being a famous rapper, his music is rife with swearing, and his music has touched on not-so family-friendly issues 
• Speaking of Maroon 5, "Payphone" was featured in a Nickelodeon promo for SpongeBob SquarePants. It seems like a cheery song about a person who wants to live a fantastic life, but it drops the F-bomb at one point in the uncensored version. No wonder the promo in question didn't last that long on the channel!
• Missy Elliott's crazy music videos make her popular with kids but her songs are less than kid-friendly.
• In the early 2000's, *NSYNC was marketed to elementary school children via merchandise tie-ins and their songs being played on Radio Disney during its' early years. However, some of their songs contain rather adult themes. For example, the chorus of "Pop", which was featured in The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron, Boy Genius, compares the addictiveness of that genre of music
• An American Girl magazine contained a story sent in by an 10-year-old reader who was playing a Telephone-esque game at a slumber party and was confused when she had to repeat "I love ratty hair more!" to the next person, as her best friend, who had started the game, would never say something so crazy. The message turned out to be "I love the band Paramore!"
• P!nk makes funny music videos, has an outgoing persona, is brightly coloured and performed a song for SpongeBob SquarePants called "We've Got Scurvy", but most of her songs are intended for adults
• Arguably, Reel Big Fish's 2007 album Monkeys For Nothing and the Chimps For Free may be in the same category, as its first song is a lighthearted tribute to losers who can't find a crowd to party with, and it has a rather cartoony cover. Then the second track starts...
• he song "Sexy and I Know It" is being used in commercials for both M&Ms candy and Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted, and was also used quite a few times in Hotel Transylvania. First of all, the band is called LMFAO, which supposedly stands for "Loving My Friends and Others“
• The song "Timmy Turner" by Desiigner is named after the main character of The Fairly OddParents!. Not exactly the right choice
• Ween composed an original song for a SpongeBob SquarePants episode and their song "Ocean Man" was played at the end of the movie. A large portion of the rest of their songs are not kid friendly.
