Creepy Kidz Bop

Kids Bop CD Am I the only one really really disturbed by those Kidz Bop CDs, DVD and TV commercials? The albums are cover versions of recent pop hits sung by kids - the "Kidz Bop Kids", specifically. The TV commercials for the CDs really drive the creepiness home. Do you really want to hear kids announcing they are "still Jenny from the Block" or that they're "Gonna Getcha Good"? While the company claims these are all "kid-friendly" versions of their often raunchy pop originals, it seems to me they are missing the point. Do adults immediately lose all sense of good taste and reason when they have children?

Kids bop sucks. They so copied the Beatles with their stupid walking across the road. I say we shoot them in the head.

Kidz bop is soooooooo freakin' stupid! They pick songs that teens like because of the fact that they're edgy and try to sell it to toddlers. Seriously, little kids singing "Hey Ya," "Me Against the Music," "Are You Happy Now," and "Senorita"??? WHAT'S THE WORLD COMING TO? By the way, I agree that little boys shouldn't be singing "Jenny From the Block" Urghhhh. Little kids are going to turn in to commercialistic, capitalistic, self-centered, media-driven zombies!

yeah, i agree. i personally have never listened to it besides the unimaginably stupid commercials. also when you were talking about them walking across the street like the Beatles, look closely in the screen shot right after that. in the background, you'll see a blue submarine, which in my opinion, looks a lot like the Beatles' yellow submarine (theyre lucky there's no color copyright laws). what is it with them and the Beatles?

Kidz Bop SUCKS!!!!! All of those pesky little kids can go jump off a cliff. I wouldn't even be one of those kids just for the money. They take good songs and turn them into total CRAP. The way they make their songs "kid-friendly" makes me sick. THEY COPIED THE BEATLES BIG TIME!!!!!!!! I think Paul McCartney should sue them for it.

This sucks. Parents please if you don't wanna headache stay away from this crap! Stay far far away. Better yet make your kids stay away from the cd racks. Including Tapes. Let them play gamecube PS2 not XBOX. But for the love of god protect yours and your kids ears from this crap. And when the T.V. comes on switch it as fast as you can. Your kids are in danger. Gotta go the Kidz Bop people are after me again. ::Runs out the door.::

My first objection raised is with the title of this and other products erroneously marketed to impressionable children. For reasons withheld from us unwashed masses, some empty suit decided (read: analyzed the results of a focus group) that deliberately-misspelled product names were "with-it" and "hip." Hence, we now expose grade-schoolers still struggling to comprehend the many complex rules (rulez?) of spelling in the English language to tchotkes bearing such unkempt titles as "Lite Brite," "Play-Doh," "Bratz" and "Kidz Bop." Gee, do you think we've gone far enough? Why not turn the "z" backwards? That'll really screw up most of those borderline short-bus students!

Oh, and the music sucks, too.

I hate Kidz Bop. They're contaminating today's generation of kids along with YuGiOh and Teletubies. They just take terrible songs on the radio (that everyone has heard so many times already) and remake them only ten times worse. They sound like fat chipmunks singing those songs.

you really wanna hear a bunch of 9 year old pansies sing the latest hits and those commercials come every god damned second
