Obscenity in the music charts

Hi all,

i've been reading posts here for a while but i've finally been inspired to join and say hi!

I'm worried about a music single i've heard about, while looking for the Matt Mcardle single in the charts I saw there's a song (i guess meant as a novelty) in the charts by something called 'K*nt and the gang'. i'll not list the full name here, but it talks about sodomy and and uses the most appalling language. you can see it here

www.theofficialcharts.com/singles-chart/

Is nobody else concerned that this sort of thing is listed in public on the same page as content that our kids are likely to be viewing? i've a sense of humour and can accept that some people might find this sort of thing funny but does it have to be somewhere so obvious and public?

am i overreacting? i mean, being free to put this sort of thing out is one thing but don't see why it has to be somewhere people could find it by mistake?

Crochet.

Oh noez, swearingz! Children cover your ears!

What no is it? I can't find it.

How do you propose to keep such music (I'm using the term loosely) out of the charts? Radio stations don't have to play music for it to go viral on the web.

Interested in this thread?

It IS quite disgusting as is the huge amount of misogyny in songs and videos these days.

Pommymumof3 · 21/07/2012 07:32

I hate all that music too... Here in Australia they don't even bother to sensor it for radio! So we drive around in silence lol
I have banned YouTube too to try and stop them hearing it!

Tee2072 · 21/07/2012 08:09

That doesn't bother me.

N***s in Paris, on the other hand...

Then again, all modern music is shit anyway, so who cares?

Zombies - totally agree with you about the misogyny - it makes my skin creep.
And as for the Daddy I've Fallen for a Monster song ... It's disturbing on so many levels.....so it's ok to be scared by your 'big and black' partner - just because "He's the best I've eve had" ? Jeez

Tbh I would rather a child listen to that than some of the stuff by Rihanna etc "Come here rude boy can you get it up, come here rude boy is she big enough" springs to mind - my 5 year old niece sings this!

I know I hate my kids seeing these videos & listening to these lyrics. Though just today I remembered that when I was a kid I LOVED 'Centerfold' by the J Gyles Band. It was only about 20 years later I discovered what it meant...

Not heard of Kunt and the Gang before, but just checked them out, they're on Disco Minge Records. You can contact them directly here.
