Adding to earlier calls to censor the words "bitch," "ho" and "n*gger" from rap music, the Reverend Al Sharpton's National Action Network (NAN) will lead the "March For Decency" on May 3 in New York. The march is planning to stop at the offices of all the major music labels (Sony BMG, Universal, Warner Music Group), followed by a rally at Columbus Circle.

"We aren't marching against artists -- we are marching against record companies to ban these words completely," says Tamika Mallory, who is leading the NAN's decency initiative. "It's nice that Russell Simmons asked for these words to be bleeped out, but if we start from the top and ban them, then we won't have to answer questions at the bottom."

Councilwoman Darlene Mealy of Brooklyn's 41st District will join Sharpton and Mallory at the march, as will the late James Brown's daughters. Later in the day, a special ceremony will be held at the Apollo Theater in Harlem to commemorate what would have been Brown's 74th birthday.


"James Brown always said we needed to clean up our music," says Mallory. "This was something he always talked about in his life and so it made sense for this march to take place on this day."

Well its ok, since

1. Al sharpton believes only black people rap
2. Rap is the only form of anything that has anything in it that insults a gender

And since you're a white rockstar >:0 you're good

^^lol all good points and they're just wasting their breath. when the violence in the real world stops then the violence in music will stop. they're looking in the wrong place. they're not trying to stop anything they're just covering it up by trying to shut us up. once again i'll remind people FREEDOM OF SPEECH something no one should EVER take away...free country muthafuckas

Freal its retarded. Everytime rappers get more heat than anyone. Everyone else has freedom except us. It's kinda weird. Everyone says its freedom of speech until someone gets offended. But if we didnt have "freedom of speech" or at least say we did, it'd be the exact same thing. Except now ppl just protest and it gets tooken off, whereas if we didnt say we did itd just be taken off. Rofl @ protesting rap music more than wars and poverty. Gotcha. You can experience all the pain you can, just dont say shit about it.

Their wasting their time anyway..

They cant stop people from saying anything.. Especially in a such a subjective artform like music... This bullshit will pass by and change nothing...............
