Rick Ross—-two DO NOT PLAY songs

Posted by: admin on 09/11/2012

Artist	Title	Notes
WALE ft. Rick Ross	Bag of Money	Rick Ross raps nasty
Montana French/FT. Rick Ross	Pop That	Rick Ross is at it in this one two.  What is it with this guy.  At least he is consistent.

On the School Dance Network website we feature the hottest school dance songs that are safe to play.  But just as important, we think, you should know what  you should avoid.  That’s why as a part of our on-going effort to help DJs and Schools to create great high energy, fun dance events we publish theNATIONAL DO NOT PLAY list.   Without exception,  every Rick Ross song ever recorded has been on that list.  He’s nasty, foul and angry.  This week there is not one, but two, Rick Ross songs to avoid.   A song by Wale Ft. Rick Rosscalled “Bag of Money” is the first entry,  followed by French Montana Ft. Rick Ross  “Pop That”.   Both are on the Rhythmic Radio Top 30 songs yet  are tasteless and definitely will send up red flags at schools.  Rick Ross could well be “School Dance Enemy #1″.

DO NOT PLAY LIST ADDITIONS 8/20/12

Posted by: admin on 08/20/2012

 

1	Flo Rida	Whistle	Number one song on the Rhythmic Radio Top 40.  Very popular and no dirty words, but clearly referencing oral sex, and should make administrators very uncomfortable.
2	Kanye West	Mercy	Also very popular among teens, but even with edits, this song should be avoided.
3	Ca$h Out	Cashin’ Out	The chorus goes:  “36 O’s so I’m ridin’ round with that nina.”  Translated: 36 ounces of marijuana so I am riding around with that nine millimeter  gun.  “Ridin with a hoe named Kesha”   …no translation necessary.
4	Wiz Khalifa	Work Hard, Play Hard	Edited or not, the repeated chorus sings Ni*ga” thoughout.
5	Trey Songz/TI	2 Reasons	The Two reasons that they refer to are:  Bitches and drinks.
6	Usher/Rick Ross	Lemme See	With Rick Ross involved, count on lyrical issues.  He’s a nasty boy.
7	2 Chainz/Drake	No Lie
8	Driicky Graham	Snapbacks and Tattoos
9	J. Cole	Nobody’s Perfect
10	Meek Mill	Amen	Nasty and sacrilegious all in one.

DO NOT PLAY list- Updated 6/20/12

New		Ca$h Out	Cashin’ Out	The chorus goes:  “36 O’s so I’m ridin’ round with that nina.”  Translated: 36 ounces of marijuana so I am riding around with that nine millimeter  gun.  “Ridin with a hoe named Kesha”   …no translation necessary.
New		Wiz Khalifa	Work Hard, Play Hard	Edited or not, the repeated chorus sings Ni*ga” thoughout.
May 15, 2012		Usher	Scream	A catchy song that happens to be all about Drinking and Sex.
May 15, 2012		Kirko Bangz	Drank  In MY Cup	Although it is #1 on the Rhythmic radio charts this week…it glorifies drinking.  One of the biggest school dance problems.
May 15, 2012		Travis Porter/Tyga	Ayy Ladies
May 15, 2012		TYGA/Lil Wayne	Faded	This is as bad as it gets. They should be ashamed.  This combo of artists is nasty lethal.
		Drake	Hell Ya, F**kin Right	Drake has had a couple of decent (clean) songs and he is huge in the HipHop community…too bad a talented guy has to stoop to clearly trashy lyrics.
		Rihanna	Birthday Cake	Filled with dirty words that could be edited, but the song is loaded with sex infused innuendo.
		Fun	We are young	“Friends are in the bathroom getting higher than the Empire state”  Make this a bad choice for schools.  Great song, but won’t fly.
		Cobra Starship	Middle Finger	Obvious problems with this one.
		Trey Songz	Sex Ain’t Better than Love	This is a slow song and not great for dances anyway, but then add the lyrical issues.  Although this may be true…better save this one for health class.
		Flo Rida	Wild Ones	Pretty much focuses on drinking and sex
		Chris Brown	Strip	Chris Brown was the show-boat on the Grammys last week.  Mostly getting negative reviews.  Not so much for his music.   People just don’t like him for what he did to Rihanna.  Anyway.  This song is nasty.  Avoid it.
		Rihanna	Talk that Talk	The Album of the same name was released in November and her number one hit “We Found Love” and “You Da One” both were cleared for school play.  This one is not.  Steamy, and nasty.  Put the big ‘X’ on it.
		Loverance	UP!	Anyone hanging out with 50Cent (Featured on this song) is gonna be naughty.  This is about as bad as it get.
		Tyga	Rack City	Always interesting to see how the Rap thugs in the industry can warp their lyrics to be even more depraved than the last  guy’s disgusting lyrics.  So this song references sex with your grandma and lowers the bar once again and that’s just a small part of why you should steer clear of this.
		Big Sean	Dance (A**)	I tried counting the number of times Big Sean sang the word A** and M**her F**ker in this song, but lost count after 30 and 15 respectively.  I can’t help but think it is point of pride for him to brag to his rap buddies…” Do you know how many times I sang blah blah.”  I can’t otherwise grasp the point of doing it.  Sad thing this is the #3 song in the nation on Rhythmic Top 40 stations.
		Dev	In the Dark	The blatant and repeated “ I gotta sex drive to push the start”  Will drive the Principal mad. Better pass.
		Will. I. am	T.H.E- (The hardest ever)	What’s the first thing that comes to your mind when you see this song?  Yup.  That’s what it is all about.  Nothing much hidden here.
		Ass Back Home	Gym Class Heros	There is a version of this song with the A** clipped out…but what’s the sense of it…the song’s title includes ASS.  Whether you play it or not, the kids will request and sing it….the A word is prominent.
		The Motto	Drake	The F bomb jumps out in the first three words of the song, the B word in the second sentence, more F words throughout than I cared to count, a couple of N words and this is Drake rubbish.
		Beyonce	Party	The cleaned up version eliminates the f bomb and other objectionable words….but the innuendo leaves almost nothing to the imagination.  This song is pretty nasty.
		Taio Cruz w/ Flo Rida	Hangover	As the title suggests.  A drinking song.  Clearly promotes getting trashed.
		Wiz Khalifa-Snoop Dog	Young, Wild and Free	The chorus and first two lines:  So what we get drunk ,  So what we smoke weed
		Britney Spears	Criminal	Glorifying guns and killing.
		B.O.B w/ Lil Wayne	Strange Clouds	Strange Clouds has nothing to do with the forecast.  The strange clouds in this song are the ones formed by smoking pot…this is an anthem to getting wasted.
		Meek Mill	Ima Boss	Rick Ross…Known nasty rap guy is the featured artist.  Makes sense that this song is like most of the rest of the Gansta rap stuff he’s known for.  Laced with most nasty words you can think of.  Avoid this garbage at schools.
		Big Sean	Dance (A$$)	Even cleaned up with edits this one talks about grinding and butts.  Best to leave this one at home.
		Taio Cruise	Hangover	Stand clear of this song.  It is all about drinking, getting drunk and the residuals of being drunk.
		Foster the People	Pumped up Kicks	Search out the clean version with no guns, no bullets and no violence and this one is safe to play.  Otherwise better avoid it at schools.
		Rick Ross	I Love My Bi**hes	Rick Ross almost never produces a decent school friendly song.  When you see a Rick Ross song…beware!
		T-Pain	5 O‘clock	Clearly describes a 5am sexual encounter.
		Ace Hood	Body 2 Body	Leaves little to the imagination.  Title says it.
		Chris Brown	Wet the Bed
		Loyd	Dedicated to My EX	The original version uses bitch, shit and pussy 46 times.  If you use the Prime Cuts version, it’s clean.  Not popular enough yet to worry about playing at schools.
		Jay Z-Kanye West	N****s in Paris	Get Jay Z and Kanye together its bound to be over the top.  The title has the “N” word.  The first line:  “So I ball so hard muhf*ckas wanna fine meBut first ni**as gotta find me.   What’s 50 grand to a muhf*kaa like me”  NOT GOOD FOR SCHOOLS.
		Rihanna	Drink to This	Third song in a row for Rihanna on this list.  One for sexual violence, one for just sex and this for glorifying drinking.   She’s 3 for 3.
		Miguel	Quickie
		Lil Wayne	She Will
		Wiz Khalifa	No Sleep	Drinking song
		Kelly Rowland	Motivation	FT Lil Wayne
		Dev	In the Dark
		DJ Khaled	I’m on One	Drake-Rick Ross
		Frank Ocean	Novacane
