Were You Listening? Track 22: Censurarme (English)

In Censurarme Eddie Dee Eddie Dee confronts racial and classist prejudices and the moralistic hypocrisy of political and social figures who try to censor rappers and reggaetón singers for what they consider vulgar topics and foul language while at the same time engaging in despicable crimes and abject corruption.

Our guest host is Dr. Beth Colón-Pizzini, who contextualizes the song and talks to us about a variety of topics including censorship, the role of rappers in the development of reggaetón, and the political hypocrisies in Puerto Rico.
