Albums U Used 2 Hide From Yo Parents Growing Up!

Yeah man, I got caught up sneaking in the house with Prince's LoveSexy album and I got some good side of major ass-whoopin' from my momma but if she only bothered 2 check under the bed? Ooh weeh,,laaawd lol I would've been black history already.

Ok, I used to listen 2 these albums when I was a kid under the bed so nobody would catch me:

-The cover alone made wonder what she was singing in the album so I bought the "shit".

-Momma hates his ass becoz of "sweet black pussy" and ain't no telling what she might do if she caught this shit in my stereo lol.

-Naturaly, right? This and every shit he put it out.

-Need I say more?

-I got the original cover album with her man covering her tities.

What about you?

I was only about 6 or 7 when "Sexy M.F" dropped, I saw the video with my mates late on MTV, I bought the single straight away!
My Mum was not too happy, particually when I kept repeating the line "Sexy motherfucker shaking that ass, shaking that ass, shaking that ass", she threw my single away when she found out that I was going up to girls on the street and at school saying that to them, my Mum got pretty furious with me, then i found "Gett off", tamer lyrically i know, but the "23 position..." line was not a line that I could repeat when my mum was around either! I hid the single to that one and she never found it! I grew up pretty quickly with music and movies!

College boyz "Humpin'" (that song was way funky) was banned by my Mum and Dad forever and I had to hide that album! I had to ask an older cousin to get me the home video of "Gett off" though as that was a 15 certificate! I was dissapointed that nothing went on, but otherwise that video ruled, particually "Gangster glam", when my mum found the video she was very mad, but she watched the tape and found nothing wrong with it so.....

by the time I was 8, she calmed down alot, but those were good times though.....

I remember buying Snoopy Doggy Dogg's Doggystyle album in the summer of 1994 when on holiday in France with my parents. My parents were disgusted by the inlay sleeve and advised me to throw the record in the bin. Naturally I didn't and listened to it in secret using my walkman. My Mum, feeling sorry for me in the sense that she thought I acted somewhat naiive, bought me Prince's Come album as a means of compensation.

I had the feeling I would be brought up on why my Mum bought me Come! Well, my parents were big fans in the '80s and knew what he was like so I guess she never gave the album name a second thought. She did actually listen to it on holiday and said...

'I'm not very keen on that 1st track' confused She then later said she thought Space was gorgeous. Which I agree with may I add.

ALL Prince albums/cassettes were banned in my house. My pop would tear out the tape and throw it in the trash. When it was safe I would go out to the trash and splice it back together. I still remember him yelling out the song titles on Dirty Mind-HEAD!!!!

Despite the title, "Bedtime Stories" wasn't risque. He didn't take that one away, did he?

Heh, I still need to hide tons of my albums when my mother comes visit me...

... like for instance she was really shocked when she saw these a while ago:

Bio-tek: The Ceremony Of Innocence


Stratvm Terror: The Only True Septic Whore


Einstürzende Neubauten: Haus Der Lüge

When I was little, my mom used to hide a copy of Saturday Night Fever from my dad, because he thought the Bee Gees were gay Satanists. lol

My mom used to have a Jimi Hendrix bootleg LP that started off with him screaming "FUCK HER IN THE ASS!!!" and I would play it and laugh and my mom would get mad and say "it's not funny, he's on drugs!!!" and turn it off.

Man, sometimes I wonder if I had a messed-up childhood.

Dad was strict. I couldn't have Madonna because of the 'suggestive' cover and lyrics in the booklet. He sat down with his coffee at the dining room table and perused the entire book. "Human Nature" says "sex" in it, for example: Did I say something wrong? Oops, I didn't know I couldn't talk about sex...

Ironic, yes. lol

Offspring was too harcore. And Busta Rhymes... well, that's obvious. Others were taken too, but those were the three I got angriest about. When I'd go visit my mother occasionally, she's take me out and get me whatever he wouldn't allow- to piss him off.

MTV, South Park, PG-13 movies and up were also not allowed. Until senior year, I had to come home straight from school every day. When I turned 18 in the middle of 12th grade, I couldn't be out past 8 PM unless I was working. So I worked full shifts after school just so I could be out of the house. pout
Oh shit, my hat done fell off

Really? Wow disbelief

I came from a strict muslim household, the only things we would play were mostly Jazz(everybody from Lady Day & Satchmo to Miles, Herbie Hencock & Idris Mohammed) and afew from Stevie Wonder, Aunt ReRe & Chaka Khan. Other than that NADA!

My older brotha got whooped the fuck out in his ass when momma caught him sneaking in the house with the LoveSexy ablum(vinyl) hidden under his leather jacket.

Boy *whoop* didn't I *whoop* tell you *whoop* not to *whoop* bring this mess *whoop* up in here?

The fave scene I eva witnessed in my life lol

We were living through some doube-standard bullshit alright rolleyes momma used to cuss the living hell out of a storm YET we weren't allowed to play what we please. Ain't that some shit? neutral
