Um. 2 Live Crew didn't blow up til they got press coverage about their legal troubles;Em's the other way around. 2 Live Crew had 2 huge hit albums given the time period: As Nasty, and Banned in the USA. Em only has 2 huge hit albums so far. I don't see what your beef is. As far as PE is concerned, they were always more pro-black, so you can't really have expected them to strike a chord with white kids. Despite this, Fear and Takes a Nation still got respectable sales, Can't Truss It, Give IT Up, and Bring the Noise Rmx w/Anthrax all got MTV run, daytime at that. But, PE is an extremely shitty analogy because of their pro-black bent. A better analogy, but one you avoided because it would explode your argument would be NWA. Not only do they have misogynist, violent, and offensive lyrics, but also have Dre on the boards. The fact they went platinum shows you that controversy sold back then. Man, I had heard so much about you too as far as debate went.....I know you can do better.....can't you?
