My nearly 16 yo son has zero music on his phone or even access to money to download stuff. He uses cash only if he wants to hang out with friends. No access to a credit card, debit card or Apple Pay. He’s quite responsible as a result.

What on earth is this response?

I don’t know the artist, but it seems like she is on the “shock” side. Like Wet A.. P…. Not that big of a deal as long as your kid is even the slightest bit mature.

A delusional parent.

How empowering! LOL

Let her listen to whatever. We listened to TLC's "Let's Talk About Sex" and Salt-n-Pepa's "Push It" and LL Cool J's "Doin' It" and Divinys "I Touch Myself" and on and on. In the kitchen when you're in there, play music you like so she's exposed to music other than her choosing. It's okay to like all kinds of different music.

I am terrified that I will now think of this song every 6 months at the dentist 😭

Literally

Concerns yourself with her education no maga crap no book banning no so called Christian values .

Sex Ed, reading every thing, take her to museums and have her travel open her mind

Most of this Cupcakke character's songs seem to be about sex. That on it's own would actually be fine; "Like A Virgin" by Madonna was my favorite song when I was DD's age, I'm no prude! But this is just over the top. I can't even the names of most of these songs, that's how bad they are. Some of the less inappropriate titles are "Squidward Nose" and "Dementia". As for the lyrics...I'm not squeamish but this stuff is just insane. Look it up if you're curious, I don't feel comfortable describing specifics. It makes me uncomfortable that she's listening to this content and maybe getting some questionable messages from it. How should I discuss it with her and possibly get her to find some new tunes to listen to?

Have you tried suggesting, I don’t know, that she develop some taste in music?

Liar.

When I was a young teenager, Dr Dre’s The Chronic came out and it was huge. Then Snoop, Tupac and Biggie blew up. It was everywhere. My parents hated all it.

I remember blasting Sir Mix A Lot and Salt N Peppa in middle school. Yikes.

Some of that might not seem too bad in comparison to today’s music but at the time it was a big deal.

I guess my point is that many parents seem to feel this way at one point or another. Say something if you want, or ask her to turn it off in your presence, but controlling the music she listens to generally doesn’t go well.

Maybe ask her what she likes about it?

She might think the lyrics are so over the top it’s funny, or something like that.

This is vile stuff. I would be upset too, OP.

Just blare it with the windows rolled down next time you pick her up from school or sports practice.
