Explicit Content Only update....
Let me just say that I LOVE THE INTERNET. I haven't even finished my "Explicit Content Only" version of Straight Outta Compton and already someone has remixed it. "Teeth" left this comment in the original post:
"i played around with your idea and created what might be the first remix of the explicit-only album."

Thanks Teeth, I love it.
Thanks everyone for all the comments, I'm glad people are digging it. I'm working on finishing it right now. Here is one more track:
Gangsta Gangsta edits down to 27 seconds of expicit material which gives it an 8% explicit content index.

I have to admit, you deserve two research grants and a Nobel Prize at the bare minimum for doing this. Kudos!

I got inspired by your idea and decided to do an explicit only version of "The Chronic"

Thanks for creating everyone. To add some perspective on this piece, it was NWA's SOC which gave media importance to the term Gangsta Rap and thus people like Tipper Gore and others lead a charge to Censor the Public Airwaves of material they deemed offensive. Well having grown up at that time i spent many hours recording those censoring exploits, i boiled them down to a piece which you can get here:
http://noneinc.com/sound/FadDeserter/FadDeserter-PreCensoredForYourAudioEnjoyment.mp3
Basically it's over 400 clips/examples of censored rap songs.
Here's some general information: http://noneinc.com/sound/Webpages/FDPC/
The lyrics censored and uncensored, a word count on the most censored lyrics and artist lists.
thanks for making these explicit only versions, it give the FadDeserter piece added meaning since you can hear the backlash and read how crazy the censors got. They censored the word censorship in a DasFX song!
Shows how stupid the public reacts sometimes.
