Let me give you guys a little background on this: back in the day 2-Live Crew music was banned by some kangaroo court in some backwater godforsaken place in the US wilderness. That caused some stir and the Crew were invited to some day time talk show hosted for goody-two-shoes righteous folk, Sunday school type of morons, to present their case.

The epic result you can see it in the video. That explains why the members of the band were cracking up throughout the song.

@CavalerVlah "some kangaroo court in some backwater godforsaken place in the US wilderness". An interesting way to reference certain parts of Florida, I'll give you that. It was done by U.S. District Court judge Jose Gonzalez, after the prodding of Jack Thompson (yes, the same one from the video gaming lunacy).
