Also, if the lyrics are about her, she must have to change her underwear multiple times a day to keep up with that WAP
If you had a young daughter would you read and explain the lyrics of the song to her?

I couldn't have said it better myself.

Yeah it's trashy music but eh, let people have their freedom.... There's an older song called "take a walk on the wild side" by Lou Reed that has a more subtle take on this topic. Like it or not, sex sells, and music that empowers women sells.

Not everything I like needs or should be explained to a young child. Plenty of things are for adults. I don’t generally enjoy children’s entertainment. My life is not G rated by choice.
Should everything on this website be read and explained to your daughter? Let me do the honors.

THE LEFT: "Cuties is actually a scathing critique of how western culture's hypersexualization of women negatively impacts young girls, stop clutching your pearls about it."

ALSO THE LEFT: "'WAP' is just a song about female empowerment, stop clutching your pearls about it."

I said, certified freak
Seven days a week
Wet-ass *****
Make that pull-out game weak, woo

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, you ****ing with some wet-ass *****
Bring a bucket and a mop for this wet-ass *****
Give me everything you got for this wet-ass *****

Beat it up, *****, catch a charge
Extra large and extra hard
Put this ***** right in your face
Swipe your nose like a credit card
Hop on top, I wanna ride
I do a kegel while it's inside
Spit in my mouth, look in my eyes
This ***** is wet, come take a dive
Tie me up like I'm surprised
Let's role play, I'll wear a disguise
I want you to park that big Mack truck
Right in this little garage
Make it cream, make me scream
Out in public, make a scene
I don't cook, I don't clean
But let me tell you how I got this ring (ayy, ayy)

Gobble me, swallow me, drip down the side of me
Quick, jump out 'fore you let it get inside of me
I tell him where to put it, never tell him where I'm 'bout to be
I'll run down on him 'fore I have a ***** running me
Talk your ****, bite your lip
Ask for a car while you ride that dick (while you ride that dick)
You really ain't never gotta f*ck him for a thang
He already made his mind up 'fore he came
Now get your boots and your coat
For this wet-ass *****
He bought a phone just for pictures
Of this wet-ass *****
Pay my tuition just to kiss me
On this wet-ass *****
Now make it rain if you wanna
See some wet-ass *****

Look, I need a hard hitter, I need a deep stroker
I need a Henny drinker, I need a weed smoker
Not a garden snake, I need a king cobra
With a hook in it, hope it lean over
He got some money, then that's where I'm headed
***** A1, just like his credit
He got a beard, well, I'm tryna wet it
I let him taste it, now he diabetic
I don't wanna spit, I wanna gulp
I wanna gag, I wanna choke
I want you to touch that lil' dangly thing
That swing in the back of my throat
My head game is fire, punani Dasani
It's going in dry and it's coming out soggy
I ride on that thang like the cops is behind me
I spit on his mic and now he tryna sign me, woo

Your honor, I'm a freak *****, handcuffs, leashes
Switch my wig, make him feel like he cheating
Put him on his knees, give him something to believe in
Never lost a fight, but I'm looking for a beating
In the food chain, I'm the one that eat ya
If he ate my ass, he's a bottom feeder
Big D stand for big demeanor
I could make you bust before I ever meet ya
If it don't hang, then he can't bang
You can't hurt my feelings, but I like pain
If he f*ck me and ask, "Whose is it?"
When I ride the dick, I'ma spell my name
Ah (whores in this house)

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, you ****ing with some wet-ass *****
Bring a bucket and a mop for this wet-ass *****
Give me everything you got for this wet-ass *****
Now from the top, make it drop
That's some wet-ass *****
Now get a bucket and a mop
That's some wet-ass *****
I'm talking WAP, WAP, WAP
That's some wet-ass *****
Macaroni in a pot
That's some wet-ass *****, huh

I did not listen to it, but here it is with lyrics, if anyone cares.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GAIe9DNFcc

Interesting that many of the lyrics are "***'ed" out!

I must admit I was skeptical of the whole "NPR is just liberal garbage" views of some people before this, but I certainly am in agreement with that view now!!

P.S. on Edit: Sorry if the above is a repeat of someone else's post!

There was a time NPR served a purpose. But having shows like Downton Abbey, etc.....it's time to let them fund themselves.Not because of this 100 song list but just because.

You'd expect the lefty feminists to be screaming their outrage over the misogynistic theme of WAP, but instead we hear crickets.

So you want to kill the messenger for bringing the message.

I don't like WAP any more than you do, but it was the most-played new song of 2020. Killing NPR won't change that fact, and killing NPR wouldn't stop WAP from rising to the most-played song either.

If what you want is censorship, think twice before you start yelling too hard for it. Censorship has a way of circling back around and biting its own tail. What you want censored will never be enough for what someone else wants to be censored.
So your favorite material disappears next, and on it goes.

If you want to influence public taste away from the extreme of WAP, then the only way it happens is to participate and give the audience a better alternative. What the audience thinks is better, not you.

The extreme is to be expected once in a while. All art forms go there occasionally just to see where the limits of public acceptance end.
