Recording every moment of their son’s first three years of life, MIT researcher Deb Roy and his wife hope to understand how children learn language. To do that he did what many parents do.

Now the Prince “teams up with some of rap music’s most celebrated mcs to create a prehistoric, preschool musical masterpiece” with Baby Loves Hip Hop! The crew of the Dino5 features Ladybug from Digable Planets, Chali 2na from Jurassic 5 and a host of others, so needless to say they’re, um, keepin’ it real.

Check out all the Baby Loves Music selections, including Jazz, Blues and Salsa music, here.
