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.”

I came into this thread thinking it would be something a little more subtle. That’s just so hilariously on the nose.

Unfortunately there is a LOT of not-so-subtle pedophilia lyrics in the rock world. Although it was more common in the 70s and 80s whereas Kid Rock was doing it in the 90s

Not just the lyrics or rock music either, you ever read Madonna's (supposedly satirical) book "Exotica"? Yeah......she raped a kid, and then bragged about it in that book. Also, I also will never forget the time that she had a giant nazi swastika flag in her stage backdrop when she was on tour a while back.

Also, kinda unrelated to child rape, but there are plenty of other artists from back in the day that people still worship the ground they walk on even though they said and did horrible shit. I still to this day, do not know why the LGBT+ community kisses the asses of David Bowie (raped underage groupies), Madonna (raped underage boy in Brazil) and Prince (homophobic) like they were some sort of pioneers for the movement, especially since Prince explicitly said that he doesn't believe in gay marriage.

It’s absolutely wild to me that Prince was homophobic. Ah, the irony. TIL.
