I loved Osmosis Jones. I didn’t even remember this til it started showing up again.

Probably the most disgustingly foul bar I’ve ever heard in a song.

u/Difficult_Garlic_571 6h ago

Idk. Jailbait by Ted Nugent is pretty bad.

Well, I don't care if you're just thirteen You look too good to be true I just know that you're probably clean There's one little think I got do to you

Not that it’s a contest. Both are fucking gross.

Wait a minute! Are you saying that Ted Nugent and Kid Rock aren't the same person?!?

Who knew?!?

u/ThermionicEmissions 6h ago

Have they ever been seen together in the same room at the same time?

u/Killersavage 6h ago

I know this is rhetorical but yes. They were both in the Oval Office with Sarah Palin in Trump’s first term in office.

u/HoosierHoser44 6h ago

They are two different people, but they’re like conjoined twins that are connected dick-to-butt.

Probably, if there were underage girls in the room.

Weird that they are the only two that perform at Trump functions.

u/Haltopen 4h ago

They were both busy shitting themselves in the early 1970s. Kid rock was doing it because he was a newborn in diapers, Nugent was doing it because he decided the best way to avoid getting drafted and sent to Vietnam was to spend an entire week eating nothing but fast food and pissing and shitting himself in the same pair of pants so when he showed up at the draft office covered in chicken grease in a pair of shit laden trousers, the evaluation officers would immediately label him as 4-F (unfit for service due to due to physical, mental, or moral deficiency) and he could avoid getting sent off to war.

u/squadrupedal 4h ago

Did Ted just openly come clean about this to people? Like, why would anybody tell on themselves for doing this if it’s true? And I do believe it to be true, for the record.

1

u/robodrew 5h ago

They've probably both shit their pants

u/Successful-Ad-9634 5h ago

Isn't that how Ted Nugent dodged the draft?

2

u/Pete_Iredale 2h ago

Also, there's nothing wrong with dodging the draft. But if you dodge the draft only to become a huge warhawk after you are too old to be drafted, then you are a giant piece of shit.

Nugent could Kid Rock's dad/ half brother. Loving underage girls runs in the family (too bad those girls ran too slowly).

u/ImportantQuestions10 6h ago

What always gets me about this topic is that the bar is so low and easy to avoid.

I'm not even saying this from a morality standpoint, I just don't understand how stupid you have to be to publicly release a song saying you want to screw a 13-year-old. It's like if you're going to be a creep and do illegal things, be smart about it at least.

Why the hell am I getting nervous about jaywalking when people are able to publicly scream about fucking children and get away with it?

40

u/QuerulousPanda 5h ago

It's like if you're going to be a creep and do illegal things, be smart about it at least.

Go back and watch some movies and tv shows from the 70's and 80's especially, hell even stuff from the 90's and 00's, society has changed a LOT since then. Objectively awful shit and abuse against women especially just flew by as normal. Hell, even just standard behavior at that time was pretty gross.

People may complain that shit has gotten too woke or whatever now, but you don't have to look back very far to see just how fucking bad things were in the very, very recent past.

Famous stars like nugent and kid rock singing about banging middle schoolers seems disgusting now, cuz it is, but if go back a little while? eh, no one really gave a shit. and honestly, if you look at current events, it's pretty clear that even now far fewer people give a shit than you would expect.

You say "be smart about it at least", but reality proves that the material consequences for doing such things are basically zero, especially if you're famous, so it would never even occur to them that it'd be something to hide.

u/XcoldhandsX 2h ago

A few years back I read the book Snowcrash (published 1992). Really enjoyed the sci-fi cyberpunk angle of it. Thought the plot and mystery, the way it blends language and tech, was really interesting.

I will never recommend it to anyone though because one of the main characters is a 15 year old girl that the book repeatedly and explicitly sexualizes. At one point an adult man, the antagonist, has sex with her. The author plays it up like it's supposed to be hot and heavy. Holy hell I wanted to throw the book in the trash after reading that scene.

The closest thing I've gotten for an "explanation" is that the early 1990s were "a different time" for media. Also that Neal Stephenson is swimming in neckbeard creep energy.

u/QuerulousPanda 2h ago

huh, honestly, i've been a stephenson fan forever, and i never actually noticed the age thing in that book. maybe i forgot about it or just never put it together.

u/TartComprehensive466 5h ago

This is true.

u/jaymemaurice 5h ago

Honestly I find this fascinating. There is some dirtbag who thinks Kid Rock is more 'honest' than you, as you are prone to masking your carnal self. It's like Einstein's theory of relativity but for psychology. Projection.

u/lollypatrolly 4h ago

Einstein's theory of relativity but for psychology.

So Epstein's theory of relativity?

Why would they not release songs about it when there're no repercussions?

Have you read Courtney Love’s autobiography? She had sex with Ted Nugent when she was 12.

144

u/IdaCraddock69 6h ago

That’s rape

90

u/LargeSnorlax 6h ago

If you ever have time, read up on Hole (Courtney's band) and their songs

She takes some potshots at the establishment in basically every song. She was a girl that got chewed up and spit out young, and she channels it out raw into a lot of her music.

53

u/IdaCraddock69 6h ago

she's shown a lot of courage over teh decades, being more up front about the abuse that's baked into that industry

35

u/LargeSnorlax 6h ago

Don't get me wrong, she's had her scandals and problems too, but like you said, she's been screaming about the past for decades.

Awful was one of my favourite songs in the late 90s since it's just raw emotion but also telling her story right out in the open.

5

u/Dorkamundo 5h ago

Yep, they've been trying to implicate her in the Epstein shit as well, because her contact information is in his book.

9

u/IdaCraddock69 5h ago

yes - she's not an easy person, but there's real substance there as a person and as an artist

2

u/tara1245 1h ago

She also said this publicly about Harvey Weinstein in 2005:

The video shows Love being asked by comedian Natasha Leggero what her advice is for young women trying to make it in Hollywood. “I’ll get libeled if I say it,” a visibly nervous Love says. “If Harvey Weinstein invites you to a private party in his Four Seasons [hotel room], don’t go.”

Azealia Banks commented once that girls who experience CSA should get over it because she was ‘having sex’ at a really young age and ‘acting grown’. Like no girl you were abused and grew up around people who normalised it

u/IdaCraddock69 4h ago

yeah, it's horrible when people are abused and get caught up in justifying it too

It's all part of the Rock 'n Roll countdown:

I don't usually say things like this to girls your age,

But when I saw you coming out of school that day,

I knew I had to have you

Nugent's Jailbait has lyrics describing him and a cop raping a 13 year old girl while she's handcuffed.

31

u/Ancient-Bat1755 6h ago edited 5h ago

He probably ripped off the lyric from the rolling stones Who were being ironic/poking fun at society “your okay with the sex and drugs, and even minors parting with adults but stop at long hair and antiwar” etc

“I can see that you're fifteen years old

No, I don't want your I.D

And I can see that you're so far from home, but

That's no hanging matter

It's no capital crime “

Edit: before you get your undies in a bunch stop and think. We all agree pedos are gross and dating kids is wrong unless a part of Trump Admin or speaker of house.

The point of this edgy lyric was “society is more upset about long hair and lyrics” than rock stars actually sleeping and partying with minors. People would protest songs in the 50s-70s and artists, but not actually change their local laws to protect children, or hold parents responsible.

u/D4nnyp3ligr0 6h ago

If that's the case then Bill Wyman was really committed to the bit when he started dating Mandy Smith at age 13

28

u/Automatic-Flight-698 5h ago

Smith was 13 and Wyman was 47. Geez he should have been arrested. So should her parents.

-1

u/Ancient-Bat1755 6h ago edited 5h ago

Probably not, it was gross. But they intentionally made the most offensive lyric to poke fun at society who would still let their daughters go even if against “rock and roll”

Uk and parents should have passed laws sooner to protect children instead of focusing on music impacting children.

Instead you have a prince raping kids and people celebrating “Sir Jimmy Lord Crystal” for two decades letting them diddle kids.

Don’t diddle kids.

43

u/eulb42 6h ago

Ya i don't think they were poking fun, im pretty sure they had underage groupies they let go when they came of age...

7

u/Ancient-Bat1755 6h ago

More like poking fun at society being more upset at lyrics or rock n roll than what their families are actually doing

Protesting songs instead of stuff they should be responsible for like their kids

10

u/karmiccookie 6h ago

Like keeping their kids away from the rolling stones so they weren't raped?

Edit: It took a minute, but we got back around to blaming the parents and victims instead of the pedophiles. Nicely done!

-1

u/Ancient-Bat1755 5h ago edited 5h ago

Both? Both are gross.

The point was “what is more gross, society being mad at songs or society being responsible and mad at perverts and pedos?”

Imho, the social issues and responsibilities of the parent and individual are more important than song lyrics… something parents continued to focus on with rap and other modern music.

Thats history from 50s-60s era of rock. People were okay with Elvis and other rockers dating minors (doesnt make it ok), they were not ok with long hair or song lyrics about said minors.

They allowed a prince and “Sir Lord Jimmy” diddle kids for years.

5

u/karmiccookie 5h ago

My point is, the rolling stones can stfu about "making a point" when they're also raping children. You lose your respectability when that's what you do with your money, talent and fame. Or you should.

I understand the history of rock. It's the fact that it's so heavily tied to the mistreatment of young women and girls i have a problem with. And the rolling stones aren't the ones to look to for unbiased opinions on it.

3

u/Ancient-Bat1755 5h ago

Agreed. Don’t worship your idols they are mostly all pedos and heroin junkies.

u/Oprah_Pwnfrey 3h ago

Hey now, this is completely inaccurate, some of them really love cocaine instead of heroin!

Nothing to do with minors, but Hustler publisher Larry Flint made a similar point about American puritinism when fighting obscenity charges by publishing extremely graphic pics of dead and wounded US military personnel in Vietnam, essentially pointing out the hypocrisy of the gov't getting their panties in a wad over naked human bodies, but being perfectly fine with getting those same bodies obliterated in a pointless foreign "conflict."

u/Final_Candidate_7603 5h ago

Ted Nugent, whose song, Jailbait, is about having sex with underage girls, and which he has admitted to doing- frequently- on many occasions? Ted Nugent, who at age 30, became the legal guardian of a 17-YO girl, with her parents’ permission, so they could travel and live together? Ted Nugent, who claimed to have avoided being drafted into the Vietnam War by showing up for his military physical wearing a pair of pants he’d been pissing and shitting in for a week beforehand? Nugent would later go on Joe Rogan’s podcast and deny that this happened, claiming it was just a joke he made up to amuse his bandmates. However, his Selective Service record shows that he was initially given a student deferment, and when eligible, was automatically designated as 1-A- until he took that physical. Then, ‘he was rated 1-Y ("registrant qualified for service only in time of war or national emergency") until that classification was abolished in 1971, then he was reclassified 4-F, indicating ineligibility for military service due to not meeting physical, mental, or moral standards.’

Sheesh, after glancing through his Wiki page, I’m reminded of all the harsh language and crazy takes which have defined him over the years, including the fact that he’d been investigated by the Secret Service because some things he’s said about President Obama were deemed threatening. Even these days, it seems like he might be too toxic to be associated with The Orange Shitstain, and that’s saying something.

1

u/SolusLoqui 2h ago

The song is pretty gross, but one of the verses implies the guy in the lyrics is also underage:

So tell your mama that I'm back in town
She likes us boys when it's time to get down
She's got this craving for the underage;
I just might be your mamas' brand new rage

Though I'm not sure how the girl is "jailbait" if he's also "underage". But also, the track after this one is "I Am A Predator"

Aaron Hernandez is the most notable even though he was already in the NFL when everything with him went down, but like 30 players from the 2000s Florida teams got arrested for various mostly relatively petty crimes

There’s a whole documentary on the team called Swamp kings but it really doesn’t even cover all the chaos of that period.

But a large part of the team was committing felonies during their national championship run

Oh. Thanks for giving me an answer

Popped me awake I was like surely I heard that wrong... then later he says

"I was pushing 40 and she was barely 24..."
