2 Live Crew is one of the notorious rap groups in Hip Hop history. They added a new level of hypersexual lyrics that was as offensive as it was popular. Their platinum selling album, As Nasty As They Wanna Be, led to a series of court cases that saw the party friendly band as champions of the 1st Amendment. These trials also coincided with the infamous PRMC clashes of the early 90s, leading to the now infamous Parental Advisory Explicit Content sticker. 2 Live Crew was also criticized for having heavily misogynistic lyrics and violent attitudes towards women. Mastermind Luther Campbell (Uncle Luke) is a figure still referenced in hip hop today. Let’s get Freaky!
