    Let’s get “it started” is another awful BEP song, and not just because the album version constantly repeats a slur

      “what no it doesnt?” - me five minutes before discovering something crazy.

      why the fuck was it that in the first place??? their songs barely make sense but that makes even less sense.

        Are you talking about Let’s Get Retarded? That was the original version. Personally, I find “It started” to be moreso.

          Yeah, but at least the radio version isn’t constantly repeating that slur, so it’s the superior version of a shit song.

              You’re showing your lack of intelligence here. Whatever you think the word means, the slur still a slur.

              Do you think it’s ok to call people the n-word, even though you’re not trying to demean a black person?
