Verdict
Not for kids

Explicit sexual content, pervasive drug use, profanity, objectification

Detailed Analysis

These lyrics contain multiple categories of mature content that make them unsuitable for younger audiences. There are explicit sexual references including direct mention of sex ('Sex ya like you've never been sexed'), sexual innuendo ('lick it like ice cream with a cherry on top'), and euphemisms for sexual acts throughout. The repeated 'peaches' metaphor is used as a sexual double entendre. There are also direct and repeated references to marijuana use ('I get my weed from California,' 'Kush in my woods,' 'smoking with grace,' 'light a blunt or two'), explicit language including profanity ('shit,' 'badass bitch'), and a reference to criminal consequences ('catch a charge and miss the court date'). Sexual objectification is present ('that ass'll make me catch a charge'), and the song glorifies casual sexual encounters and drug use as a lifestyle. Snoop Dogg's verse in particular extensively promotes marijuana use and positions the artist as an 'ambassador of legalization.' The combination of explicit sexual content, pervasive drug glorification, profanity, and objectifying language places this firmly in the 18+ category.
