I understand where you're coming from, but where would Serato get the lyrics from?
I don't think you get lyrics in the tags when you purchase a track (I've never seen it anyway).
So you would have to actually find the lyrics of the tracks yourself & manually add them into the tracks id3 tag. By doing this you would then already know if the track is inappropriate or not. As a dj, you are getting paid for your skill & music knowledge. I'd rather not play music I don't know than risk playing a song that could potentially ruin my reputation.

@acemc There are lyrics APIs that go along with a lot of these lyrics sites. Serato would access the API over the internet and pass it the title of the song, artist, etc. The interface may come back with several options to select. The goal here is to simplify the workflow and not require changing between applications to do a search. Also, serato could even allow us to put in keywords that may not be considered "dirty" by adult standards, but are not ideal for family audiences and if these keywords pop up in the lyrics they could be highlighted.

Shazam and other services use Lyrics APIs to generate the lyrics for the songs they match.

Very interesting, I had no idea there was something like this. I'm gonna look into that. Thanks for the info.

For sure. Here is one site that I found on a quick search where some are listed: www.quora.com

But there are many others. All of these music services are using them. It really just comes down to costs for Serato and having the right partnership. The development is not a heavy lift once that's done. They could add it as an optional add-on tool.

That's a great idea.
