notes
A Review from the Parents' Choice Foundation says it best (the CD is a Parents' Choice Gold Award Winner):
Babies, toddlers and preschoolers get the lion's share of quality music created just for them; it's less usual for their older siblings, especially 'tweens and young teens, to be targeted with music that isn't the MTV- or radio- and internet-driven fare that they're already tuning into by that time. This terrific R&B, hip-hop and rap collection may change their minds. Along with an authentic, driving beat, these well-crafted, heartfelt songs, sung by talented young people, respect listeners as they emphatically convey uplifting messages that speak directly to serious adolescent challenges. Songs like "You Stand Out," "Good Thingz," "Figure It Out" and "Much Betta" underscore the title track's theme: "Tired of messed-up, shady rhymes, we've got fresh and fertile minds. Well aware that we deserve a better rap....Youth under construction, youth in development....Building a better way...."

Positive Pulse Power
author: Stillwaters StudiosBefore going into the music industry, I was a middle school math and science teacher. My kids love this stuff, and as an old fart, I do, too. I put it on, crank it up and enjoy every minute. Buy it!!!!
It's more than I expected
author: Jenny GMello-D takes a handful of young, talented people to help deliver a message of making a difference through positivity and creativity. The Youth Under Construction group offers a well-balanced variety of R&B, rap, passionate solos, Jamaican taste and even disco all while staying faithful to new problem solving solutions and telling unique stores. Both the music and the messages hit their spots. The voices are inspiring and the music is awakening and smooth. Just one run through the collection and you will already be able to name your favorite songs.
Love it

author: Larry Johnson, OneVision EnterprisesEvery parent, teacher and child should hear this music. Mello D is on to something great...a positive message music project that is so totally needed in this world we live in. A refreshing change to the negative music that's out there today. I can't wait to hear the next one!!
IT IS THE BEST I LOVE IT
author: brittany jonesThank you, for creating such amazing music and making my job a lot easier!
author: Dana SwansonWow! Being a dance teacher, I understand the necessity for music of this magnitude. When recital time comes around, and I need 20 or so songs it would take me months to find that many songs that would be ok to use for children. Even those that I did find would still need a word or two edited out. These songs are perfect, powerful and fun! I also found, with looking for music, that if I did find songs “suitable” for children they were boring and did not capture their attention. Youth Under Construction is exciting and kids want to listen to it! Thank you, for creating such amazing music and making my job a lot easier!
