The “Kidz Bop” Series Goes From Singalong To LOL-Along

Nestled among the kid-centric covers of “Boom Boom Pow” and “1-2-3-4” on the forthcoming 16th (!) installment of Kidz Bop is a song called “LOL”—and no, it’s not a Trey Songz cover. It’s by Sinai Rose, and it sounds kind of like a lost Lil Mama track, with attitude all over the place, a super-distorted guitar that sounds lifted right out of Rebirth, and a chorus that turns the old “cell-phone interference” excuse into a directive to text, not talk. Also: lots of acronyms, some of which I can’t decode for the life of me. Is our children learning? Find out, after the jump.

Sinai Rose is touted as an “up and coming star” in her Kidz Bop promo material, and I’m curious to see if having her featured on a Super Fantastic Mega Smash Hits For Kids collection will help boost her profile, or at least get her a couple of Radio Disney spins. Here’s the full Kidz Bop 16 tracklist: 1. Boom Boom Pow 2. Circus 3. Fire Burning 4. The Climb 5. How Do You Sleep 6. If I Were a Boy 7. You Found Me 8. I Hate This Part 9. Heartless 10. If Today Was Your Last Day 11. Live Your Life 12. Please Don’t Leave Me 13. Second Chance 14. Goodbye 15. Hoedown Throwdown 16. LOL – Sinai Rose 17. Candle (Bonus Track) 18. That’s Not My Name (Bonus Track) 19. 1234 (Bonus Track) 20. Halo (Bonus Track) “Halo” but no “Already Gone”? Aw. Kidz Bop 16 Deluxe [kidzbop.com; HT scroll] LOL – Sinai Rose [YouTube]
