About The 2 Live Crew

The 2 Live Crew is a pioneering American hip-hop group, known for their explicit and controversial lyrics that pushed the boundaries of artistic expression. Formed in Miami, Florida, in the early 1980s, the group consists of members Fresh Kid Ice, DJ Mr. Mixx, Brother Marquis, and Luther Campbell, also known as Luke Skywalker.

The 2 Live Crew gained nationwide attention with their third studio album, 'As Nasty As They Wanna Be,' released in 1989. The album, with its explicit language and sexual content, ignited a cultural and legal firestorm, leading to a landmark United States Supreme Court case regarding obscenity in music.

As Nasty As They Wanna Be: The Album

'As Nasty As They Wanna Be' is widely regarded as a groundbreaking album that challenged societal norms and censorship in the music industry. Featuring tracks like "Me So Horny" and "Pop That Coochie," the album pushed the boundaries of explicit content and sparked debates about First Amendment rights and artistic freedom.

Despite facing immense backlash and legal challenges, 'As Nasty As They Wanna Be' became a commercial success, reaching No. 29 on the Billboard 200 chart and selling millions of copies worldwide. Its impact on the genre and its legacy in shaping hip-hop culture cannot be overstated.
