Sometimes a song just isn’t appropriate to play on your radio show or in your classroom due to inappropriate language.

Here is a quick and easy way to make a clean version of any song.

I have used it to record mixsets for my radio show and all of my recent mixtapes. I have even used it in the classroom to record Reader’s Theatre and Radio Plays.
