I was listening to “Ends” by Everlast on the radio today on my way to work. It was going alright, but I noticed that there are quite a few things you can’t say on the radio that are surprising.
Things you can’t say
- whore
- drugs
- Colt 45
- balls
- green
Now, I realize that much of this has to do with context, but come on… You can’t say smoked the finest green? What’s wrong with the word whore anyway? Concubine is in the Bible, and that’s a synonym, so… Would it be OK to say that on the radio? Do we need to censor Christian radio when they say concubine?
So, I looked into it, and found this. Interesting…
