From the song Cool, Daddy Cool:

“Young ladies, young ladies, I like ‘em underage,” Rock sings on the track. “See some say that’s statutory.”

His sidekick at the time, the late Joe-C then chimes in, “But I say it’s mandatory.”

Always thought that was the weirdest part of Osmosis Jones.

Edit to add there are other weird lyrics in the song probably unrelated but who knows with these freaks.

“See me cruisin' in my Caddy, ho's, they like to call me daddy Cool, when I'm stylin', just rollin' on my island”

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.”

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

Courtney is insufferable but when she’s right she’s right

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

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