The worst part was the explicit versions would have these logos on the CD case but the clean versions didn’t have any logo. If you didn’t know the album had explicit lyrics to begin with, you could easily buy the neutered version on accident.
That’s an american thing. The first time i encountered it was when i downloaded NWA and the song fuck tha police. The word fuck was just blank. It was so jarring i had to stop the car to look for another song.
When words like “fuck” are censored or when another version of the song has been recorded with more gentler words for radio broadcast.
Wow. They really do that? Crazy world…
