There are a ton of kid's music out there. Songs by artists that are influencing our children through catchy lyrics and music. Now there's a Christian alternative. Is that a good thing? 1 Girl Nation Lauryn Taylor Bach, Lindsey Ciresi, Carmen Justice, Kayli Robinson, Kelsey Sowards Reunion Records August 2013 I've got two daughters and can't get away from their music. (Cue sad I-must-be-getting-old moment here.) When they were preteen and "tweenagers" it was all Disney pop music and now as they move to Junion and Senior High School it's country music (thankfully they seem to have skipped over the former Disney singers) with some pop. This kind of music is all catchy, synth music with danceable beats. And there really is nothing like it on the Christian station (which seems to play mostly towards earnest life growth focused songs). Enter 1 Girl Nation. Yeah, it's a cheesy name, but it's exactly right in line with younger girl expectations. It sounds exactly like Cheetah Girls and similar Disney pop music. On the solo songs, this CD sounds indistinguishable from current synth pop music. Except for the words - which can be overhanded at times - that clearly mark this as a message for Christians. My younger daughter (11) took this CD and hasn't given it back. My older daughter (14) said of the music, "I don't want to call it cheesy... but." And then sang along with it. (If you have a teen you know that tension that exists between wanting to grow up and still enjoying the "kid" stuff.) Interestingly, my sons (both younger than the girls) love the music and dance and sing to it regardless of the female focus. From my perspective, the music is very cheesy but it's also very needed. Kids are going to listen to music and they are going to sing along. I'd rather them singing these lyrics than Miley Cyrus (Hannah Montana, of which we have several CDs in the house). Isn't that the point though? This is not music for parents - we have enough of that. This is music for the missing demographic: tweens and teens. And it is just right. This is an enjoyable, simplistic, Christian version of pop synth music that everyone in my family enjoys (even if they don't admit it.) Listen to the CD a few times and you'll be singing along too. Thanks to the record label, Reunion Records, we have a giveaway! Enter below. Congratulations to Paris R. of Glendora, CA! Your CD is on the way!
