N.W.A. Gets a Foul Mouthed Re-Edit

Think back for second, it was 1988 and five dope boys comin’ “Straight Outta Compton” were dropping an album by the same name.  If you remember it was furor.  Politicians and the like were up arms from this new style “ganster rap” that (gasp) cursed in every verse.  God lord, what are we teaching our kids?
