New Hungarian Media Authority Doesn't Like Old Ice-T Lyrics
A radio station in Hungary is under investigation by the National Media and Communications Authority for playing the 1993 Ice-T song "Warning (It's On)," because the lyrics "could influence the development of minors in a negative way."
Yesterday, Hungary assumed the European Union presidency — a post it will hold for the next six months. At the same time, it created the National Media and Communications Authority with the goal of ostensibly cleaning up the airwaves for young ears. The authority said "Warning" could have legally been played only after 9pm. Tilos Radio said the NMCA was investigating them for playing "Warning" at 5:30 pm in September.
The intro to Ice-T's 1993 album "Home Invasion" is what apparently set the NMCA off:
Attention!
At this moment you are now listening to an Ice-T LP
If you are offended by words like
Shit, bitch, fuck, dick, ass, hole, cunt,
Dirty bitch, low motherfucker, nigga, hooker, slut, tramp,
Dirty low slut tramp bitch hole, nigga fuck shit,
Whateva..
Take the tape out now!
This is not a pop album
And by the way
Suck my motherfuckin' dick"
The NMCA's first day of existence has already pissed off the rest of Europe, and it's new 'only play songs with dirty lyrics after 9pm' law "endangers editorial independence and media pluralism," according to the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE). The new law states that anyone caught violating "public interest, public morals or order" could be fined up to $955,000. Britain's Foreign Office issued a statement on December 23, expressing concern over Hungary's new media authority:
Freedom of the press is at the heart of a free society. We hope that the Hungarian Government will soon resolve this issue satisfactorily and that it will not impact adversely on the successful delivery of the Hungarian EU Presidency.
The only clear winner here is Ice-T, whose album intro from almost 18 years ago is back in the spotlight. Where's Tipper Gore on this?

Kate Moss Rumored To Be Recording An Album
What's a girl to do after topping the charts as one of the biggest supermodels of all time, consistently maintaining global best-dressed status and designing successful collections for brands like Topshop and Longchamp? Record an album, of course.
According to the Daily Mail, Kate Moss is planning to step into the recording studio and make an album, under the guidance of rocker boyfriend, Kills guitarist, Jamie Hince.
"Kate's fashion days are winding down and she's no longer designing for Topshop, so her dream is to to record an urban album," a friend of Hince's told the Mail.
This wouldn't be Kate's first foray into the music biz: she's penned songs with ex-boyfriend Pete Doherty, guest-starred on tracks for Primal Scream, Oasis and Doherty's Babyshambles and appeared onstage at a celebrity karaoke fundraiser in London in 2009.
Moss also recently graced Bryan Ferry's "Olympia" album cover and is rumored to be doing a duet with him on an upcoming album.
Apparently, another music man also has his eye on Kate: Simon Cowell, who is reportedly trying to tap Moss as a mentor for the U.S. version of his hit U.K. show, "The X Factor."
Speaking of Kate Moss rumors, whatever happened to her turn as a ballerina alongside Baryshnikov?
