Beyonce's Father Releases Cleaned-Up Kids Rap

While the rest of the music industry searches for the next Beyoncé , her father Mathew Knowles hopes to continue his family's hit-making legacy on his own Music World label.

"I want Music World to be known for the same thing Destiny's Child is known for -- artist development and having great songs," he tells AOL Music. According to Knowles, that development entails the performers coming to the label's Houston headquarters for thirty days of instruction. "We've taken them through vocal lessons, choreography, team-building exercises and all the fundamental things an artist needs to be successful," he says.

The Music World roster includes R&B acts Sunshine Anderson , Next and Dionne Farris plus new teen idols 2 Much , J Xavier and Mic Little . There's even something for those not quite old enough for iPods, namely the 'Kids Rap Radio' CD series.

"I don't want my grandson Jules, at two years old, to hear all of the lyrics of some of the rap songs," Knowles says. "So, we thought, 'What if we kept the tracks and the choruses as close [to the originals as possible] but change up the lyrics so that it's kid-friendly, parent-friendly, teacher-friendly?' That's what 'Kids Rap Radio' is all about, and we've had an overwhelming response because no one has done this in hip-hop."

'Kids Rap Radio' and 'Holiday Kids Rap Radio' are in stores now.

Listen to 'Kids Rap Radio' on AOL Music's Full-CD Listening Party.

Band Members: Music mogul works with a new generation (New York - WABC, December 5, 2006) - Do you ever listen to the radio with your kids, and a song comes on with lyrics that make you quickly change the station? Now, a music mogul is now behind some kid-friendly tunes. Eyewitness News reporter Sandy Kenyon is here with a look. The idea behind "Kids Rap Radio" is simple: To sell hip hop music parents will feel safe playing around their kids. Music man Mathew Knowles, who guided "Destiny's Child" to the top of the charts, has brought his considerable talents to bear on the next generation. The sound remains the same, pure hip hop, but the rappers are so young that some of them are still wearing braces. And these are not angry young men. "I always speak the truth, there's no need to lie. I'm gonna have fun with this until I retire," raps J. Xavier. J. Xavier's mentor is Mathew Knowles, who coached his daughter Beyonce to superstardom. "He's not my manager because he's my father," Beyonce said. "He's my manager because he's the best." Now a younger generation gets the benefit of his guidance. They are kids rapping for other kids. "We're excited about this, because I have a 2-year-old grandson," Mathew Knowles said. "And one day I was just in the car with my wife Tina and a song came on the radio and I found myself putting my hands over his ears." As a grandfather, Knowles was concerned. As a top music man he thought, "What if we really took the really best of the best rap songs, and what if we kept the music beds the same, and we kept as much of the lyrical content as we could, but make it child friendly?" The result is in stores now. "Coming up with the children's album is genius," Beyonce said. "And it's something that's surprising that it hasn't been done yet." Doing it now still means keeping it real. "It's not corny, not at all," Mathew Knowles said. "But at a young age still we have to be concerned about the lyrical content." Knowles said when Beyonce was just 5 or 6 years old and wanted to sing, he looked around for an appropriate tune for his little daughter to perform. He settled on "imagine," by John Lennon.
