Eleven Kidz Bop albums have been released to date. Each album features different pop music songs, played with music similar to the original, and with the "Kidz Bop Kids" singing instead of the original artist. Albums are typically released within a few months of each other and thus the songs included tend to be the hit songs of the current time, including such songs such as "Float On" (Modest Mouse), "This Love" (Maroon 5), and "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" (Green Day).
Although the albums are marketed as being "sanitized" versions of popular songs for children, many of the songs featured on the Kidz Bop albums still contain explicit sexual material, such as Rob Thomas's "Lonely No More," which some people consider inappropriate for younger audiences. Other featured songs, such as "Boulevard of Broken Dreams", contain profanity. Although the albums censor the actual word from the song, the context of the profanity remains. They also covered Green Day's hit "Wake Me Up When September Ends", which is about death.
The Kidz Bop video for their cover of Avril Lavigne's "Sk8r Boi", for instance, features the song being sung by a pre-teen girl in heavy make-up, fishnet stockings, and a Sex Pistols t-shirt.

I'ma tell you one time
(Me plus you)
I'ma tell you one time
(Me plus you)
I'ma tell you one time
(One time)
(One time)
When I met you, girl, my heart went knock, knock
Now them butterflies in my stomach won't stop, stop
And even though it's a struggle, love is all we got
So we gon' keep, keep climbing to the mountaintop
Your world is my world
And my fight is your fight
My breath is your breath
And your heart
And now I've got my one love
My one heart
My one life for sure
Let me tell you one time
(Girl, I love, girl, I love you)
I'ma tell you one time
(Girl, I love, girl, I love you)
And I'ma be your one guy
You be my number one girl
Always making time for you
I'ma tell you one time
(Girl, I love, girl, I love you)
I'ma tell you one time
(Girl, I love, girl, I love you)
You look so deep, you know that it humbles me
You by my side and troubles them not trouble me
Many have called but the chosen is you
Whatever you want, Shawty, I'll give it you
Your world is my world
And my fight is your fight
My breath is your breath
And your heart
And now I've got my one love
My one heart

Give you everything you need
Down to my last dime
She makes me happy

Right by your side
'Cause she is the one
And, girl, you're my one love
My one heart
My one life for sure
