So, you can file this under "never thought I’d say this", but I bought Kidz Bop 10 for my kids and I think it is a perfectly good thing for humankind. Here’s why:
- Early teaching of derivative works— that you can meld a song that you hear that is owned by adults and change it to meet your tastes.
- "By kids, for kids"– sense of power
- Intelligible lyrics– they re-do the songs so you can actually hear what they say, almost always exposing an actual narrative
- Tracks seem sharper– easier to point out separate instruments and understand how the music is constructed
God bless us all.
