It can be hard to find music that you love to listen to that’s also appropriate for children. After all, you don’t really want your little one picking up a new four-letter word from your latest favorite song.

AT&T just released a fun study that can help you find a ‘clean’ artist to listen to. They analyzed the top 200 songs for the past year on Spotify to figure out who the most popular recording artists are—and then they counted how many times those stars curse in their music.

Here are the top ten ‘cleanest’ musicians on the radio this year.
