Album 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...."

Before 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 G
Mello-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.
