Mathew Knowles' 23-month-old grandson -- whose mother is Beyonce's younger sister, Solange -- is already a hip-hop fan.
"When he hears a rap, he goes nuts, dancing and saying the lyrics," said Knowles, who manages his daughters and runs a record label, Music World Entertainment.
It's cute to watch, except for one problem. "As a grandfather, I'm very concerned about what my grandson is saying," Knowles said. With that in mind, the mogul created Kid's Rap Radio, a new album series featuring hip-hop singles remade with cleaned-up lyrics rapped by kids.
"Kidz Bop has had this concept for years and has used some Destiny's Child and Beyonce records, so it's always stayed on my mind," Knowles explained. "Now, having a grandson, I have an opportunity to make a mark. And if you look at the Kidz Bop compilations, none of them are hip-hop -- they're all either pop or R&B."
Kid's Rap Radio, Volumes 1 & 2, scheduled to be released together in double-disc form on November 21, will feature hits such as "Touch It," "Shake Ya Tailfeather" and "Right Thurr." (continue)
