It’s evident that this post’s title is facetious because when is the last time you’ve heard a popular rap song on the radio that was edited to not include one of George Carlan’s favorite seven words or describe behavior typically dissected on Sex and the City?

This post is more or less a pingback of a previous one, The Anti-Hip Hop Movement, where I commented on Tricia Rose’s book Hip Hop Wars: What We Talk About When We Talk About Hip Hop and Why it Matters.

Today, I came across the featured ROFL (abbreviation for roll on the floor laughing for non-members of Generation X) PubMed article of NCBI ROFL  in which Pitt researchers observed that sexually explicit/suggestive music is related to earlier onsets in teenage intercourse. Rap, as expected, contained the most sexually suggestive commentary (I imagine Khia’s “Lick My, etc” song which was one of the most popular songs of 2002-2003 was significantly weighed) while country contained the least. Duh! Though I prefer Lils to Kenny Chesney any day.

Given that 75% of the current Billboard 100 songs have equivocally comparable messages to George Carlan and Samantha Jones of Sex and the City, these type of research findings have a promising (yet scary) future…….
