'''''Kidz Bop''''' is the name of a series of [[popular music]] albums recorded for [[children]], sold by [[Razor & Tie]] Direct, L.L.C. and frequently marketed through [[television commercial]]s.

== Production ==
The children on these albums usually do not sing the entire song; instead, an adult typically sings the verses, while the kids sing the choruses and occasionally join in at other times. The adult singer is always the same gender as the original singer, except for Daniel Bedingfield's "[[Gotta Get Thru This]]" on ''[[Kidz Bop 3]]''. All of the singers in Kidz Bop do not match up to the [[pitch (music)|pitch]] and [[timing (music)|timing]] of the original song.<ref name=kb8/> Kidz Bop Co-Founder, Cliff Chenfeld, said, ""There was not a lot of music for kids who had outgrown Elmo and weren't quite ready for Britney. Parents were getting more aware and concerned about the music their kids were listening to." Criticism stems from Kidz Bop's covering of songs that mention or insinuate [[death]], [[sex]], or [[drugs]], subjects considered unsuitable for the young; examples include [[Nelly]]'s "[[Dilemma (song)|Dilemma]]," covered on ''[[Kidz Bop 3]]'' and [[Jet (band)|Jet]]'s "[[Are You Gonna Be My Girl]]", covered on ''[[Kidz Bop 6]]''. Also, in some songs, the lead artist's verse is included, but not the collaborator's (usually a rapper's); examples include [[Beyoncé]]'s "[[Crazy in Love]]", covered in ''[[Kidz Bop 5]]'' which does not include any of [[Jay-Z]]'s guest vocals, [[Justin Timberlake]]'s "[[My Love (Justin Timberlake song)|My Love]]", covered on ''[[Kidz Bop 11]]'', which does not contain any of [[T.I.]]'s contributions, and [[Shop Boyz]]'s "[[Party Like a Rockstar]]", covered on "[[Kidz Bop 13]]", which was edited to feature no swearing.

A Kidz Bop road show toured the United States in 2007. Performers were selected in a nationwide talent search. Six child performers included MarySarah Gross of Richmond, TX; Markelle Gay of Atlanta, GA; Davide Sciavone of Poway, CA; Elizabeth Bashian of Thousand Oaks, CA; Kristian Real of Jersey City, NJ; and Breyanna Komadina of Newport Beach, CA. <ref name=kb8>[http://www.dispatch.com/live/content/life/stories/2007/11/28/1_KIDZ_BOP_STARS.ART_ART_11-28-07_D1_8D8HSBK.html?sid=101] The Columbus Dispatch.</ref>

== Advertising ==
''Kidz Bop'' is often advertised on television channels popular with young audiences, such as [[Cartoon Network]], and [[Nickelodeon (TV channel)|Nickelodeon]]. The commercials typically show the Kidz Bop kids singing and dancing to songs featured on the album. Although the albums are initially sold through direct mail-order prior to their retail availability, they are eventually sold in retail stores.

The album cover follows the footsteps of the art for [[Now That's What I Call Music! (album) (U.S. series)|the original album]] in the [[Now That's What I Call Music]] series in the American market.
