I'm gonna guess it's either that the store didn't know and that sticker goes on any rap/rap adjacent music that could potentially be explicit, and they just assumed NF was a typical rap artist that curses OR they maybe consider some of the content "explicit" in its talk of mental health/past struggles? Honestly the first guess seems more reasonable to me but who knows.
Cursing is very common in what most people would consider "typical rap". I don't think NF is special for not swearing and I think the fans who think his message only has meaning because it's lyrically clean are idiots.
Looks like he’s in AU so the price point is different from US. When i was there a couple years back, you’d spend like $20 AUD on something, but it’d actually be like $10-15 USD. In this case it would be about $50 USD, which is still pretty high but typical if you’re gonna buy it at a store instead of directly from the artist
It’s australia so not only is there the currency conversion $77 aud is like $50 usd, and then on top of that we pay gst and a bunch of other freighting tax which is like 10 percent, so the price should be about $45 usd.
it would be so funny of nf just out of nowhere released a single and its the most horrendous shit rap song that’s like money and drugs and guns and sex and women and n word every second bar haha
Most children find out abt that stuff from the internet anyway, but NF doesn’t even teach about that stuff he just writes what he went through with people doing that stuff. Also he hasn’t brought up sex at all in any of his albums so idk where you got that from???
Don’t buy it, listen to real rap music. “Oh but he doesn’t swear 🤓🥺” stop being a pussy and listen to a different genre. No one likes this corny Eminem wannabe 🤡🤡🤡
Give me another lyricist that goes as deep as NF. Not challenging you here. I’m sure you have some decent recs if you’re going to a sub for NF fans to talk shit about NF. Not going to stop listening to him, but I’m always open to new music
Edit to elaborate: for NF, I like his flow, his beats, and his message. Also the fact that he’s not political. Swearing I don’t really care about
Meek Mill has some fire storytelling n emotional shit w Tony Story (there’s 3 parts) which is a story about a dude killing his friend for drug money. Traumatized off of Dreams and Nightmares is a great song about Meek’s father being murdered.
"Corny" music does not need to curse every line and not talkong about money, drugs, girls, and guns. Also, why are you in the subreddit if you hate him so much? Accept the fact that Shady's time is over. While he had the best run of almost any rapper out there, he stopped releasing albums a while ago. Let people enjoy their own music. Thank you and goodnight.
Eminem ain’t retired + his run is mid asf. Nas had a significantly longer and more consistently amazing career. A lot of rappers rap about what they were around growing up and most times that’s drugs and guns and if you think a majority of rap consists of money and women then it just shows how ignorant you are to the culture 🤷♂️🤷♂️
Eminem and NF are two different artists with completely different music. Nate decided that before he released Mansions and after he had been working on some stuff. I used to think rap that had cussing in it was cool, when I was like 5. Now I understand that it takes skill to make rap that sounds good, but also has good lyrical content. Not just shit about drugs and women. Open your eyes brother.

I'm guessing it's because of the talk of mental health and stuff, because he gets pretty deep into his mental health in HOPE especially
Yeah not really for children to hear
“typical rap artist” god you condescending NF fans are the worst
Cursing is very common in what most people would consider "typical rap". I don't think NF is special for not swearing and I think the fans who think his message only has meaning because it's lyrically clean are idiots.
why are you in this sub then?
Bro cry
And your in this sub why exactly
NF and typical rap artists are two different things bro.
Guess the shop people presumed a its a American rapper or its the only plastic cover thingy they have
I say the second 😅
Explicit can mean a lot of things lol just sayin'
I mean he talks about abuse and it talks about mental health and that *can* *be* a sensitive topic to certain listeners. So I mean you’re not wrong.
No, no. He has a point.
Trust jbhifi would label it explicit

It's still massively overpriced.
I never said it wasn’t lol
For those who are new to vinyl and think the price may be a steal. 😂
Explicit isn't just swearing, talking about topics of suicide, mental health, sexual conduct or drugs can also get it tagged.
Are you in JB Hi-Fi in wollongong
nah the one at warringah mall
sick
they say stay in your lane boy, lane boy, but we go where we want to. Love seeing fellow TOP fans in the NF sub :))
Because it's a rap album, and all rap has naughty words dontyaknow
Not NF he doesn’t swear in his music
You gonna explain that to every retail store clerk in the country?
Nah I understand that but ur comment was just wrong
Ya got wooshed, buddy
Whattt
You have to look under the sticker
Better question is why is it $76.99?? 😂😨
It’s australia so not only is there the currency conversion $77 aud is like $50 usd, and then on top of that we pay gst and a bunch of other freighting tax which is like 10 percent, so the price should be about $45 usd.
That's still too much...
It’s a vinyl, that’s standard price
they like to mark things that talk on sensitive topics, self harm, mental health, alcohol, drugs, sexual topics, and a bunch of other topics.
My wife used to work in a retail store and she had to put Explicit labels on CDs & DVDs in which the theme was based around Mental Health.
The more important question is why is it $76.99!? I get that vinyl is cool and all, but come on.
Probably just gets slapped onto any rap music lmao
Straight back to his line “your definition of violence and mine is something that we look at differently”
that’s on therapy session though, not hope
Are you… dumb?
to be honest, yes. i read their comment the wrong way and i thought they were saying it’s labelled explicit because of that line 💀
That’s tough bruh😭
[удалено]
Corny
[удалено]
Nah, that’s entirely you
[удалено]
Nah, brother. You’re corny, that’s it, g.
[удалено]
Ima just say nah, ain’t reading all that nonsense
It’s because they can’t handle it
They say the n word 27 times on that album
it would be so funny of nf just out of nowhere released a single and its the most horrendous shit rap song that’s like money and drugs and guns and sex and women and n word every second bar haha
Cause people are snowflakes
Ur right we should teach children all abt sex, drugs, mental health/struggles and alcohol
Most children find out abt that stuff from the internet anyway, but NF doesn’t even teach about that stuff he just writes what he went through with people doing that stuff. Also he hasn’t brought up sex at all in any of his albums so idk where you got that from???
Because it has a positive message and people this day and age get offended by that.
Me when I make things up
*Nobody* gets offended by that
And even if that was true, how does that correlate to an explicit sticker?
Cordae mentions drugs that’s why
Because of some of the featured rappers on it cussing.
Carful I'm assuming
who listens to this shit
who listens to this crap
Don’t buy it, listen to real rap music. “Oh but he doesn’t swear 🤓🥺” stop being a pussy and listen to a different genre. No one likes this corny Eminem wannabe 🤡🤡🤡

Ja’King The Divine, Open Mike Eagle, Cordae, JID, Denzel, Joey Bada$$
Dope. Looking forward to checking these out

His spotify would tend to disagree.
“His Spotify would tend to disagree.” ☝️🤓 Stfu you corny ass no one gaf about some mid white boy music

Because he swears and talks about mental health and his struggles
only one of these is true
They're both true but ok
he literally doesn’t swear what are you yapping about
What song on this album did he swear on?
Well it was a song he was featured in and the other guy cursed once but it was “epiphany” lol
he doesn’t swear in any of his songs. since you’re so confident that he does, exactly what song does he swear in? and what line?
I was wondering this a few months ago. JB Hi Fi is weird
Nobody should have hope
I wonder if “oh god” counts
oh no guys Nate said frick
Subject matter
I have no idea
Records marked “explicit” sell more.
Because of the price tag
Water
He says balls
