Our 14 year old DS listens to terrible music- we had a parent filter selected for his YouTube music account- for him to listen to the clean versions of thr rap music that he loves...but something happened to the filter and now he hears the unedited versions - typical drugs, sex, misogyny, racial slurs.

I feel like you pick your poison...he has no internet access on his phone, limited screen time, and is more sheltered in other ways...so I'm gonna just let him listen to songs about hoes going to trap houses and not die on that hill...

How would that make her stop listening?


No teenager wants to listen to the same music as their parents.


I think it's the other way around. Parents don't want to listen to the same music as their teens. My 15 year old is currently obsessed with Piano Man (yeah, the Billy Joel one), and wants to learn to play the piano just to play the opening riff (she plays a totally different instrument).

I was driving with my mom and teen DS in the car and NIN’s Closer came on the radio. We were in active conversation so I didn’t react to change the station; I didn’t want to draw attention to it.

Except then we stopped at a light and the chatter stopped so it was silent just in time for the chorus. Whoops.

That's the answer. Start blaring it and talking about how you love sucking DH's Johnson. There is no better remedy than embracing it whole heartedly.

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.


Yeah, no. This is way worse than 2LiveCrew.

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.

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.

CupcakKe does not support misogyny, and her songs make this very clear. She makes music that is feminist and empowers women, and you'd know it if you listened to her instead of guessing based on some pretty messed up assumptions about rap music.

Liar.

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