In bad country, the govt must review all speech before it can be shared publicly.

Waiting for the free speech warriors to chime in
It'll be about the same time that the castle-doctrine obsessives start advocating for non-whites to own firearms.
We are going to take it
Sure, I guess we will take it
We're just gonna take it

If they play the lyrics of "Stay in Line Hoe" we'd all look bad for defending him
I ain't defending shit, free speech is not a real thing

bit idea: absolutely bomb as a rapper and put on the worst events while increasing the support of police officers. Get a spot on EDC b/c everyone savvy knows what you're up to. Bring an oblivious police officer on stage to get ridiculed and mocked by the entire crowd.
Cop wrestling heel would be fun too
Oh my god in the right hands you'd make people seethe so easily! You'd walk out next to your battered wife, you'd scream in terror every time somebody held up a prop, you'd pretend to freak out after you touch some drugs, and you'd try to arrest the referee after you win when they tell you to stop pinning your opponent.
It writes itself lol
Mr Baby Gangster, what about instead of "follow me now cuz I'm a hot boy," we just changed that to "Follow me know, cuz I'm a proud boy?"
Every one of this guy's albums has a song about beating women, I wonder if it'll stay that way.
Somebody get me 2 Live Crew!
Sorry, but as a non-white leftist I don't get this site some times, and I am someone who's saying this while having a thorough knowledge of Cash Money Records. B.G. has a ton of songs about how he delights in beating women, and if the same verdict he got (which I don't agree with btw) was given to some manosphere chud or Stone Toss about their media output we'd surely go "chud BTFO" instead of invoking free speech arguments.
Meanwhile, if I so much as make a post here where I call Biden a "bitch" it gets deleted for being misogyny. I think US leftists, especially white ones, have this inclination to reflexively defend rappers because they are from a marginalized background and because of their countercultural/outside-the-system aesthetic, but any mention of the hardcore misogyny or homophobia in that subculture is often completely overlooked or blamed solely on systemic roots as if rappers and their fans have zero agency.
for me at least is because its the US government doing this, since they're doing most definitely for racist reasons and not to crack down on misogyny
Yeah without a doubt the ruling is based on racism, but I wish people didn't just treat a rapper who heavily contributed to the corrosive materialism and misogyny in hip hop for his own gain to the tune of millions of dollars as some dissident poet or something. Most of popular hip-hop is reactionary and attempts to make poor black people feel personal shame for being poor, and this is literally the guy who pioneered "Bling Bling."
We love talking about CIA conspiracies but CIA could not have asked for a better psyop to fracture black solidarity and social mobility than the Cash Money Records brand of rap music. Even their in-house producer, Mannie Fresh, sometimes asks if they ruined rap music. And again, I am saying this as somebody who has listened to most of the stuff they've put out.
