I started listen to this album driving my oldest son to school when he was in Kindergarten. While the album does touch on controversial issues, very similar to Lasers, it does so without being raunchy or inappropriate. Most of all it’s not loaded with curse words. If you have a kid between the ages of 8-10 who hasn’t had an introduction to real hip-hop yet, BE is a great place to get them started.
