Some more roots-era mother-effing (and misc. swearing) with another 'n-bomb' at the end, for y'all here...

The Confrontation booklet says otherwise. But what you say makes sense.

hear:

So I just listened to Caution and I don't hear m?????? F?????? I hear "hit me from the top you crazy mother funky"

I full appricate that he means m?????? F?????? but to my ears he doesn't say it.

Do I have a sensored version of caution or am I just going deaf?

I thought that it was 'mother-effer' when I first heard it, but I can also hear how it could be 'mother funky' now that you mentioned it and I was listening for it.


Reminds me of the debate over whether Donald Duck calls Daffy Duck a 'nigger' in Who Framed Roger Rabbit...

Had to listen to hear for myself, I don't hear the f word either

This makes sense:

"But through your lack of respect and through your false pride"

This does not:

"But through your feck of respect and through your false pride"

seems cut n clear to me
