It's not some new phenomenon.

i'm tending to think that the 20-30 year old folk don't have problems with explicit lyrics. on the other hand, i find much of rap and especially the lyrics to slow motion to be in poor taste. of course, i'm older than most folk on GC and have little tolerance for a number of things.
Well considering a lot of 20-30 year olds grew up on Marvin Gaye, Rick James, Prince, and other artists from the 70's who had sex laced lyrics, it's not that far fetched. There are plenty of r&b songs that talk about sex. Just because they call it "making love" doesn't mean the subject has changed or the lyrics are more suitable.
