That was the case with "The Fox" by Ylvis, which was rushed onto the Kidz Bop 25 album just days before it was manufactured. One of them: "Blurred Lines" by Robin Thicke. In an industry where sales are increasingly moving to the digital realm—CD sales have hit a record low , in fact—the majority of Kidz Bop sales are still physical copies.
Zaraya says that's due to the extras they offer with each purchase—like stickers and magnets. The gang did their first-ever original song on Kidz Bop 30 in , a spunky little ditty called "Make Some Noise. We see the direct result of what happens when there is a woman in charge and not a man. They had to redesign the Transformers series because it got too Michael Bay violent for no reason and people stopped going because it had no soul. It can be profitable. How are the effects of companies not understanding what should be censored felt today?
This whole cultural concept of boys will be boys is one of our most problematic core ideologies that we are literally, in real time, witnessing the cultural backlash against. We are literally witnessing our society evolve for the better.

Led Zeppelin are legends. Kidz Bop is stupid and horrible. They have creepy music, their music is more disturbing than the Goddess Bunny. This title contains: Language. Adult Written by fricotype0 September 3, Disappointingly bad. I get that the music is for kids but some songs they play just have a lot of the words completely changed. They also play a few rap songs from, well, rap artists.
Take in example, they play Drake. Drake swears a lot and to be honest, the swearing brings about the message he is trying to convey. Kidz Bop, however, completely changes the words, and the songs just make no sense. A lot of the songs they play I have never even heard of and they seem overly censored for absolutely no reason whatsoever. Just listen to any other group or just listen to the original song.
Maybe not Drake, but any of the pop songs that are clean and bring about a good message. This title contains: Positive role models. Read my mind 4. Adult Written by Musicman23 April 9, Kidz Bop is a danger to young kids everywhere. It reveals mature topics to kids.
Although they may not fully understand what the words mean, the concepts are engrained in their minds. Had useful details 3. Adult Written by Eddie U. April 29, Big pile of wet nappys Kidz bob is terrible. I know you could argue that some songs have bad language but just go to YT and search up e. You will get the real, full song just without the swears. I swear it gave me cancer or something its that bad. Read my mind 3.
Adult Written by Ur toast January 29, Written by Anonymous November 27, May I also point out that some songs didn't need to be "Kid-friendly-ized," like "The Fox," for example? Why did they do that?! Also some songs don't just get the lyrics changed; the whole SONG gets changed, from the key it's written in, to the order of the verses and choruses.
And many songs just sound better in their original key and order. MAYBE you can use Kidz Bop as a last resort if you can't find a clean version of a song elsewhere, but I think that's the only good you can get from that.

They had little to no music experience, put a girl to sing it when a boy sung it. This is also a ripoff. From other reviews, it was still inappropriate! And thats the whole ducking point of kidz bop! You wont even bop to the music, your ears will bleed! And schools still play it, they dont read the reviews like they do with every other thing! It would even be better if they had a loud bleep when swearing comes in. People and schools overrate this music.
