Hungary’s media authority is investigating a small radio station for playing songs with explicit lyrics by Ice-T at an inappropriate hour. The National Media and Infocommunications Authority says the Ice-T songs “Warning” and “It’s On” make “direct references to violence or sexuality” and should have been broadcast only after 9 p.m.
Hungary’s media authority is investigating a small radio station for playing songs with explicit lyrics by Ice-T at an inappropriate hour.
The National Media and Infocommunications Authority says the Ice-T songs “Warning” and “It’s On” make “direct references to violence or sexuality” and should have been broadcast only after 9 p.m.
Tilos Radio says that since the lyrics are in a foreign language — English — and the station has very few young listeners, the songs did not have an “adverse affect on the moral development” of children under 16 when broadcast on the afternoon of Sept. 2.
Ice-T, known for his controversial “Cop Killer” track, welcomed the dispute, posting “I love it! The world still fears me. hahaha!” on Twitter.
