Just recently learning that 2 Live Crew founder “Fresh Kid Ice” passed away last week, “Me So Horny”–from the controversial 1989 album As Nasty As They Wanna Be–immediately came to mind. Listening to it a few times prompted me to post this reply.
Familiar with just a few of their tunes, I would say I’m neutral when it comes to being a 2 Live Crew fan. Of the few tunes, “Me So Horny” is the only one I love--Chris’ rap having a lot do with that--a bittersweet recollection with his untimely passing.
“Girls always ask me why I fuck so much.
I say, ‘What's wrong, baby doll, with a quick nut?’
'Cause you're the one and you shouldn't be mad.I won't tell your mama if you don't tell your dad.
I know he'll be disgusted when he sees your pussy busted.
Won't your mama be so mad if she knew I got that ass?
I'm a freak in heat, a dog without warning.
My appetite is sex, 'cause me so horny.…It's true you were a virgin until you met me.
I was the first to make you hot and wetty-wetty.
You tell your parents that we're goin' out,
Never to the movies, just straight to my house.You said it yourself, you like it like I do,
So put your lips on my dick, and suck my asshole too.
I'm a freak in heat, a dog without warning.
My appetite is sex, 'cause me so horny.” - “Fresh Kid Ice” (May 29, 1964 - July 13, 2017)Biracial, Chris Wong Won--also known as “The Chinaman”--“Fresh Kid Ice” notable as the first hip hop rapper of Asian descent.

…and in spite of the reaction of the folks in the movie Purple Rain from 1984–(Has it really been over 30 years? Geez!)–“Darling Nikki” is one of my Prince favorites!

"Around the Way Girl" (1990) L.L. Cool J
A hit single by from his album Mama Said Knock You Out–my favorite of his songs--of those I’ve heard, it’s actually the only one I like.
Referring to a particular type--calling out description and features in a rap about that type of girl–an "around the way girl."
Peaking at #9 on the Billboard Hot 100–#5 and #7 on the R&B and dance music charts--it’s his first top 10 single.
"Around the Way Girl" was certified Gold on January 15, 1991 for sales of over 500,000 copies.

No no no! ;D
Let's have a step back in time to 1984 when Mary Elizabeth Gore, Al Gore's wife, decided to please her 11-year-old daughter by offering her the record of the new singer "à la mode" Prince who have a major hit with Purple Rain. And what is her surprise when she heard that, in "Darling Nikki", Prince sung about feminine masturbation! Then, she discovered that 80's artists like Van Halen and Mötley Crüe also sang about sex and luxury.
As senator wife, she formed Parents Music Resource Center (PMRC) and wrote to Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) to ask to stop commercialisation of such songs, which resulted in a big laugh. But she used her husband reputation, and finally succeeded with the apparition of the parental advisory sticker. But this sticker, far from stopping sales, meant that the albums with this sticker on them were "so cool". Since then, labels don't hesitate to put this sticker, because this boosts sales!

Well that’s definitely a whole lot more than I know about that label, seeing that all the knowledge I’ve got about it–pretty much--is what I picked up in putting that post together.
Anyway, not meaning to imply As Nasty As They Wanna Be was the first to have the advisory label, but that it was the album that started the controversy, which led to the introduction of the label–according to Rolling Stone…

Banned in the U.S.A. (1990) was the first album to sport the advisory label.
