Title: CURTIS album, is man down censored on every copy!!!!
Post by: Skeptic on September 10, 2007, 05:16:07 AM
Yo I bought CURTIS today, retail copy from the store. I'm in australia and here it dropped in stores on  sep 8th. And I was jus wonderin if track 3 man down is censored on every copy of the album, cos on the back its got (censored) next to it. I mean wtf is this, in my opinion the track is hot & is a lot less enjoyable cos of the random censoring all over the place tho it still leaves in some cuss words.

Anyways I was jus wondering if every version of MAN DOWN is censored, ps curtis whole album is also up on his myspace and its censored there so I guess it is, but why the fuck would he do that?

apparently Interscope wouldnt clear some lyrics... so, 1. why not change them rather than censoring, or 2. why not just drop it from the album?

yeah its fucking gay as hell, cos it ruins the track, also have u heard come n go, the hook says somethin bout 50 cent and dr dre together, but dre aint on the track & he aint produce it.

I think dre was sposed to be on it but must of pulled his verse off at last minute or somethin cos in a interview with 50 like 2 weeks ago he said that dr dre was rappin on the album!

come and go doesnt say who produced it, but is says

Come & Go
(C. Jackson, A. Young, J. Harris, T. Lewis)

he's on the hook

but it is weird that thats the only track that doesnt say who produced it, yeh it says Mark Batson n Dawaun Parker did the keys.. so thats why i'd assume Dre did the beat since he works with them a lot... and it was recorded by Veto, when u look a Dre's other productions the majority of them say "Recorded by Veto" so thats another reason

Interscope also censored some songs by Eminem, Dr. Dre and D12 in the past.. and some organisation took 2 songs off of Buck's album "Buck The World" because he was goin' against the police too hard on those tracks.. freedom of speech doesn't exist nomore in the USA.

Also the same thing happened on Snoop's last album with the Dre produced track with Kam on it I think.

Well, Eazy was a co-owner of the Ruthless Records. Fiddy is just a signee of the Interscope Records.
Read about "Cop Killer" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cop_Killer_%28song%29)

Those tracks are most likely the reason why anti-cop lyrics would get cencored today. ;D

I read from a certain book once ("100 most controversial songs" or something like that it was called) that Fuck The Police and Cop Killer are the only two tracks officially banned from American radio today. Don't know the accuracy of that, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was true.

You're a fool for coppin' that album in the first way.

I think so too. Sorry homie. :D

seriuosly. the only reason they put [censored] there is to get some buzz and attention. "oh I'm so bad that the record company has to censor me on my own album with the explicit lyrics sign."

At least Ice T & Cube were saying something about police violence & the way they treated people.

50 is probably just mad that they won't suck his dick.
