I ain't tryna be 'playery on you.
Joe pretty took it the direction I would've. An effective way to eschew all those diva artists that aren't for kids is to expose them to other cool artists.
My girls dig:
Santogold Bobbi Humphrey Alice Coltrane The Jets M.I.A. Janet
It's fun to play Jhene Aiko then follow that up w/ some Sade.
The 7-year-old enjoyed Thriller and is in love w/ MJ. I played "I Can't Help It" for her one day. Her: Daddy, that's song is pretty Me: You know who wrote that song? I genius named Stevie Wonder. *plays You & I* Her: That song is pretty, too! Me: You like , right? Check out this Janet video.
At that point, I can play her anything as long as I refer to the familiar. Now, the source becomes the familiar.
