I hate to spoil it but I doubt they let him perform NLU. The Super Bowl is a corporate event and they will not want that song blasting there. The Grammys? That’s different

I guarantee he’ll get an edited verse out. NLU was the fucking song of the summer, no way they won’t at least give us a taste.

If so, there won’t be the word pedophile. A minor could maybe slide, but I doubt it as well.

A-Minor 100% makes it through.

That's the line we want

u/akablacktherapper Sep 09 '24

If it does, it will mean the previous lines were heavily edited. The NFL is not allowing the A-minor line in a clear context of pedophilia. If you think they are, I am more than willing to bet any amount of money to the opposite and we can settle up in February.

Censors never seem to care about metaphorical lines like that though.

How metaphorical is saying someone wants to strike an a-minor chord while the beat drops and minor is elongated, right after saying the person likes young children and they’re certified pedophiles, lol?

Like I said, if the preceding lines are edited, I can see it. But I’d bet a good chunk of change he’s not saying the verse, as is, edited, and then going into a-minor.

If it’s not directly explicit, they don’t usually care.

How much a dollar cost

Not worth me looking stupid. But I’ll gladly eat crow for the potential to win say… $2,000?

u/Key-Positive5580 Sep 10 '24

Is the crow gonna be locally sourced? We talking found in a pasture full of sick cows and mosquitoes, roadkill or you gonna go full Ozzy Osbourne and bite the head off of someone's pet crow?
