When should songs be censored or banned?

from How We Heard It · host howweheardit

Songs can make you blush and songs can make you mad, but should they ever be banned? Veteran music journalists Wayne Bledsoe and Chuck Campbell take a look at how and why artists have been censored and how others have avoided it. And no, it doesn't always make sense. They also look at the fickle world of cancellation and how some artists get whacked while others get a pass. (Plus, sometimes artists even ban their own songs.) One thing's for sure: History shows that whatever you think is OK by today's standards will probably come under fire years from now.
