speaking of fifth harmony, “boss” was actually banned on radios for awhile bc of its “political message” which is hilarious bc they’re specifically talking abt the lyric “michelle obama. purse so heavy getting oprah dollars” 😭😭😭 they’re literally just saying michelle & oprah are rich & badass.
Nina Simone was truly done wrong. Her story is as inspiring as it was tragic, but her legacy remains significant. Definitely one of the greatest musicians to have ever lived.
So many of the greats were able to make truly emotional, classic, great music despite some of the most terrible things going on in the world. Very admirable
"Love To Love You Baby" was so groundbreaking for its time. It broke so many barriers and helped pushed female sexuality to the forefront of mainstream media. The entire era itself could be made into a video of its own. Donna deserves all the credit and more. She is truly the Pop Architect!
Rain On Me was also banned in Ireland in 2020. “Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande's 'Rain on Me' may be a hit, but some Irish radio stations have decided to ban the track from their airwaves. The reason? There's been non-stop rain in Ireland since the song's release back in May.” And I believe Kesha’s Die Young was also banned from radio in 2012, following a school shooting. 😣 just bad timing. Great video, I love how diverse your topics are! ✨
It’s crazy how MTV always banned female artists and black hip hop artists for the simplest things or things that are needed to be talked about I remember growing up as a kid in the 2000s and early 2010s Eminem was one of their most popular artists he had videos that were controversial and problematic but were heavy played on MTV and BET I believe prior to Taylor’s 2022 VMA win for all too well short film Eminem was the artist with the most video of the year wins Also thank you for starting the video with the legendary jazz queens and the first queens of controversy Nina Simone and Billie Holiday
True! It’s interesting because MTV always was about shock factor and explicit-ness too but only when it wanted to be. The one I remember from back in the day was when they wouldn’t play Christina Aguilera’s Can’t Hold Us Down video for minor sexuality when the whole point of the video was double standards between men and women. 🙄 I’m sure there must have been issue with the Dirrty music video as well in that case.
@@bluelightvisions right they did the same to the dirty video and they did the same thing to Britney too they only played the toxic video during night time and this was one of the biggest factors to why toxic didn’t go number one on the billboard hot 100 despite going number one in literally every other country it charted in outside the USA.
@@Kevin-rg3yc Toxic went number one who US pop radio tho. But 2004 was pretty much the year of Usher and hip hop, rnb and crunk. He was number one for like 28 weeks on the billboard 100 as soon as Yeah topped the charts for 12 weeks and then he replaced himself with Burn (8 weeks). I looked it up on billboard and Britney was also competing against a lot of heavyweights in thr spring of 04 with the likes of Mario Winans I Don't Wanna Know, another chart topping worlwide hit (number 2), Evanscence's My Immortal (number 7), Marron 5's breakout hit "This Love" (number 5), Jay-Z's Dirt Off Your Shoulder (number 5), Ludacris Splash Waterfalls (number 6), Beyoncé's Naughty Girl (number 3), Alicia Keys's If I Ain't Got You (number 4). The competition was stiff but number 9 for a global hit as huge as "Toxic" is baffling. That's one of her signature hits. Easily top 5 most iconic, classic and popular record Brit song ever with BOMT, Ooops, Slave 4 U and Gimme More. Its top 2 tbh
Never forget that after Megyn Kelly had a tantrum over If U Seek Amy on national television, Britney responded by putting a literal caricature of her quoting the way she spelled out the “obscene lyrics” in the music video and it was so funny to witness. Queen.
the song 'to men (democracy)' by kpop group baby vox was banned because of strong lyrics such as, 'cheating is an illness you can only fix by dying' & 'justice is coming for you' (korea, at the time, wasn't very big on democracy)
As a long time Kpop fan I think that K-pop song are way less censored than they used to be. It used to be ridiculous. And I’m shocked at some of the lyrics they get away with these days. It reminds me just how much the K-pop industry changed in the last 10 years. It’s also interesting that the overwhelming majority of cases mentioned here were about establishment censorship of female artists. I wonder why?? 💭women have strong opinions in their music? We can’t have that!!!! 😱 😅
Ironically enough I have vivid memories of Gaga’s rise and I remember the controversy surrounding Lovegame and Judas and etc. Lovegame was my favorite Lady Gaga song and I had no clue what she was talking about but I loved how it sounded. It was different from what was being played on the radio at the time.. I was like 5 when it came out singing “I wanna take a ride on your disco stick” I also remember singing Stupid Hoe, Ride, Anaconda, and most of these songs. I was heavily invested in the Nicki/Kim beef, the Ride MV was on repeat in my house because of her dancing, and Anaconda bc the controversy and her game that came out shortly after the video.
I love the way she discusses the main topic and also gives us important musical and pop cultural history about some of the most iconic artists. Her videos really help me appreciate music more for the art that it is. 🎶
Part 2 idea! "Die Young" by Kesha being pulled because of the Sandy Hook shooting (as well as "Pumped Up Kicks" by Foster The People). "Die Young" was at #2 (predicted to hit #1) when the ban happened, causing the song to drastically freefall, and never recover.
People have been wanting Kelly to portray Donna in a biopic for quite some time 😍. Kelly portrayed a young Gladys Knight quite superbly too in BET's show American Soul.
The hair, the video, the ✨essence✨ Get into it. Also, this reminds me of when the song '3' by Britney Spears used to have the word "sin" backwards when on the radio. Lmao

Madonna was always so ahead of her time, in so many aspects. She doesn't deserve all the hate, misogyny and ageism she gets. Pop music wouldn't be the same without her.
It's funny how controversial Madonna was back in the day. Her performance at the first ever MTV video awards was controversial for her wedding dress coming up and showing off more than she felt comfortable showing, at the time, and it really set precedent for her working relationship with MTV. Also, the lead single from that album wasn't her first choice ("like a virgin"), so she just took the direction the execs and label had went with for her, at the start of her MTV reign. She just went forward with in her career by pushing the envelope, so I'm not surprised she had been banned. LOVE MADONNA.
@@hunterwilliams8923 She is ONE of the blueprints but she certainly didn't do it ALONE. Let's give credit to Cher being the first woman showing her belly button on TV, Donna Summer moaning for 10 minutes straight onstage and singing about sex work (Bad Girls), Grace Jones in EVERYTHING she ever did. Let's not forget Janet Jackson who was Madonna's only peer who was pushing the envelope but from a black woman's lens. Janet was the orginal "Good Girl Gone Bad" with her "Janet" album era in the early 90s when she went from all the fully covered black military clothes to being topless on the cover of Rolling Stone, went from Let's Wait Awhile to Anytime, Anyplace, Throb... The BDSM and lgbt themes and imagery of The Velvet Rope album era (Free Zone, Rope Burn lap dance performance). She did it before Mariah's Honey/Butterfly era, Britney's Slave 4 U era, Xtina's Dirty/Stripped era, Rihanna's GGGB/Rated R eras, Miley's Can't Be Tamed/Bangerz eras, Chloe's Have Mercy/Treat Me era, Janelle Monae's Age Of Pleasure era....
For an eventual part 2: The ban Lady Gaga has when it comes to performing in Russia after defending LGBT+ rights. Censorship forcing her to cancel a sold out stadium show in Indonesia in 2012 for not having licenses granted with her never performing there since ( so it's probably a permanent ban ) ... She also was banned again in China years after the born this way one was lifted over meeting the dalaï lama. Her Alejandro performance on American idol was also edited which I believe is pretty rare for TV performances. Her video for Alejandro was banned from airing on most time slots on MTV too. Also this absurd Iranian streaming site melovaz that modify female artists artworks to the point they sometimes blur or erase them fully that could give you many examples for a part 2. They did it with many of Gaga's singles covers.
In part 2, you should talk more about Britney Spears. When “Slave 4 U” came out, radio banned her and wouldn’t play ANY of her music. Her video for “Toxic” was also banned.
I think it would be awesome if you did a part two and talked about the fact that Britney Spears was literally banned from US radio because of a contract or something from 2001-2004 I believe. It also leads into the fact that songs like "I'm A Slave 4 U" didn't chart as high because of the radio ban, and songs like "Toxic" exploded on the radio because I believe it was the first song of hers that was released after the ban was lifted.
Here in the Philippines, the song "My Way" by Frank Sinatra was not banned, but it has heavy superstitions around it. There was a phenomenon of people singing that song frequently, then in the mid-2000's a guard shot a man singing it "off-key". Many people don't sing it much anymore since then. Everytime I hear it in a karaoke bar I get a little surprised everytime and I always think "wow I thought this was banned" lol
I find it funny how kbs banned Boombayah for "Vugler lyrics'' but still allowed newjeans cookie despite the lyrics being like 100x worse than Boombayah, and the age of the members along with mhj's past when she was in sm dose not help.
Kylie Minogue's video for All The Lovers was banned in Indonesia because there is gay kissing in it, Kylie refused to remove it because that completely ruins the message of the song.
Madonna should be acknowledged more for always pushing the boundaries at a time when nobody else did! She really did help a lot of marginalized people by creating visibility and speaking up about political issues when she could‘ve just stayed silent and pleased the general public like a lot of other artists did. She risked her career a lot to fight for a good cause. ❤ I will always admire her for that!
First of all, the new look is beautiful Naomi. I Always heard this type of things about Madonna. I remember when i was just a kid my mom didn't wanted me to listen her erótica álbum😂
Michael Jackson’s “They Don’t Really Care About Us” original had antisemetic lyrics (kick me, k**ke me) and he was forced to re-record and re-release the song. At the time it had already been widely distributed to music sellers and all copies of the original had to be pulled from shelves. Imagine how costly this was at the time?
Surprised you did not mention Do What You Want, Gaga featuring R Kelly. Maybe pulled rather than banned? Most serious example of a banned video I can think of
@@naomi.cannibal If you make a part 2 could you please add the ban Lady Gaga has when it comes to performing in Russia after defending LGBT+ rights? 😁 She also had censorship forcing her to cancel a sold out stadium show in Indonesia in 2012 for not having licenses granted and she never performed there since so it may be a permanent ban... She also was banned again in China years after the born this way one was lifted over meeting the dalaï lama.

Thank you for bringing "Strange Fruit" to my attention. What a devastating, sublime, beautiful, haunting performance. If I were hearing it for the first time, I think I'd have to collect myself for a bit before I had the presence of mind to clap.
It’s interesting you didn’t mention ban of Christina Aguilera video for Beautiful for supporting LGBT and Dirrty for being to sexy. Xtina was always ahead of her time.
You know you made it when you get banned... So to be clear Madonna wasn't the original banned queen or artist to be controversial. Didn't mtv want Bad Romance to be edited or something like that?
@@omarslayz Thanks for saying it cause Madonna's often presented as the pioneer when it comes to that. 🤔 She gets nearly all the credits with her elders ( specially black women artists like Donna summer, Nina Simone Grace Jones, Billie Holiday etc ) bold moves being erased or forgotten "to her profit". 😔
If you do make a part 2, I think it would be interesting to continue looking at worldwide standards compared to local ones. For example, Japanese artists Namie Amuro & Koda Kumi have been banned for the sexual nature of their songs in a few countries (Namie for her song "WANT ME, WANT ME" & Kumi for her songs "SHAKE IT", "Selfish", and "KO-SO-KO-SO", among others) when American audiences wouldn't have batted an eye
I went to an Afrocentric elementary school and we used to have to recite Strange Fruit. I’m not sure how I’d feel about my kids reciting it now. I didn’t have much understanding of what I was saying back then but I’m grateful that they opened my eyes up so early.
Fun fact - I think Gaga's music is banned in Belarus and Russia due to her being an LGBTQ+ ally who has spoken out against the Russian government. My work uploaded a video with Lady Gaga music in it and we found the video was automatically banned in Belarus and Russia.
Well, she wasn't banned from local music channels and radio stations (not sure about Belarus though), her concert promoters in Russia were fined for her so-called "homosexual propaganda" on stage
You could make an entire series solely covering metal bans. It's more uncommon for a metal band to NOT be banned or threatened with a ban or an arrested because of their music. It's absolutely insane.
I wanted to say how much I appreciate the work and research that you put into each of your videos. You're not afraid to talk about controversial topics or social issues. I respect that. This video DEFINITELY needs a part 2. Keep up the great work, Naomi! ❤
I missed the “Jukebox” or “The Box” video channel. They played all the banned videos that MTV didn’t play. I remember seeing “Justify My Love” playing often. They even played Sir Mix A Lot’s “Put ‘Em On The Glass”. Lol!
Naomi, every time I open youtube you’re on top of my feed with a new video & I can’t complain 🥰✨ Thank you for putting so much effort, research and time into your videos ❤️
I think there's also a case where an EXO song got banned or censored? Idk. One of their songs, "Lotto", changed to 'Louder' in music shows because the song comes off as promoting gambling. If i got the information wrong, anyone can explain down there in the replies please!
Red light by fx was also banned because they mentioned caterpillar and the broadcasting stations didn't know it meant catapillar but the brand catapillar, and made fx change the lyrics when they'd perform it on stage but later on, they were allowed to say the word catapillar in performances. It was also controversial because it was criticising the Sewol Ferry incident and how it was handled.
EXID's first hit song "Up and Down" got banned from music shows for the "sexual" choreo so EXID mocked the music shows by having another comeback "ah Yeah" which talked about censorship when it came to female idols and workplace harassment.
my favorite banned mv is nature's 'girls' the uncensored version is CRAZY omg, like its horror-based and the scene where the axe hits the girl in the eye at the end-
I am so mixed on female promiscuity because while it can be empowering for women to show their sexiness, they are just adding to the objectivity when they twerk and grind against the floor or the guys. It sends a mixed message. I would say this about the guys too. Why do men (she asks rhetorically) just have women stand there with revealing clothing and have them lap dance the entire video. In most videos we barely see their faces. Some of the women’s videos show more of their butts than their faces too. Maybe it is a genre thing to me, but there are other ways to show you’re sexy. I also hate the double standards. While there were songs by both male and female artists on this list, men were banned for going against the system. Women are banned for swearing and showing their promiscuity while if men did it by objectifying women, it is fine. The purity standards are annoying.
In K-pop, even choreographies are being banned, especially if they are deemed too unfit for music show stages and idols are asked to change the choreography in order to perform their comeback on music shows.
Regarding Madonna's 2003 controversy, she also pulled her video in response to an incident that occurred around that time involving the country music trio The Chicks (then known as the Dixie Chicks). On March 10, 2003, nine days before the invasion of Iraq, the Chicks performed at the Shepherd's Bush Empire theater in London, England. It was the first concert of their Top of the World tour in support of their sixth album "Home". Lead singer Natalie Maines told the crowd, "Just so you know, we're on the good side with y'all. We do not want this war, this violence, and we're ashamed that the President of the United States is from Texas." After the statement was reported by the British newspaper The Guardian, it triggered a backlash from American country listeners, who were mostly right-wing and supported the war. The Chicks, then one of the most popular country acts at the time, were blacklisted by many country radio stations, received death threats, and were criticized by other country musicians. The backlash damaged sales of the Chicks' music and concert tickets and lost them corporate sponsorship. A few days later, Maines issued an apology, saying her remark had been disrespectful. She rescinded the apology in 2006, saying she felt Bush deserved no respect.
I honestly wonder how many male rappers' videos got banned by BET because the "Stupid Hoe" ban seems hypocritical. Maybe you could cover that in a part 2 video..?
Whew!!!! This topic can probably have a part 2 and 3 done. The 2 Live Crew controversy where their records were banned and store owners could be arrested for selling them in places. Ice T and his rock band Body Count's song Cop K***er. On a lighter note, ppl trying to get Beyoncé's video Deja Vu banned because they felt her scenes dancing around Jay were too sexual and obviously the white rage around Formation. Rihanna's Man Down video etc. This topic is so interesting!!!
All I'm gonna say is this: there are a lot of songs I don't like or consider vulgar. But I don't want any of them banned. I'll just avoid them or laugh at them.
None of the kpop songs are technically "banned". They just aren't passed from censor board, where their lyrics can be changed to uncensored words to promote on kbs or other networking systems, and even perform the cencored songs elsewhere in Korean concerts or fanmeets.
I love this video so much, I find this topic so fascinating especially concerning my idol Madonna, and you explained everything so well while not dragging it out. I would love to see a video on songs and videos that weren’t banned but which caused a great deal of controversy!
I feel like in this modern era with streaming, radio play doesn’t mean anything anymore. If a radio refuses to play a song or at the very least a censored version why even bother when we can get it on Spotify/apple music/ TH-cam. It’s honestly not even about “morality” it’s freedom of speech you should have the choice to listen to what you want. And the whole Madonna/Donna/Gaga controversy is baffling to me as Christian or other religious music gets the pass when it in itself is pushing a narrative. (Unpopular opinion)
Of I forgot to also mention this not in the video (if anyone actually cares to read my comments) but Lil Nas X in 2020 for the “Call me by your name” MV was deemed Satanic and disrespectful by Christians when it literally is depicting gays in hell which is what they always have to say about LGBT rights so I never understood why they cared it’s not like he was depicting himself as an angel flying up to heaven to lap dance God. Could you imagine that back lash?
I'm glad you made the video this long, gave you time to really get into all the specific details about each song This reminded me of when I was younger and Rihanna's S&M came out. On the radio station I listened to, the words "chains" and "whips" were censored with a classic record scratching/sudden slow down, which kept me from knowing the real meaning of the song until I was a bit older. But this year I heard it on a different station completely uncensored (and my coworker loudly singing along to it)! Apparently it was only the BBC that decided to change those lines and rename the song to "Come On" whereas other stations kept it as is. They also completely cut her vocals from the post-chorus "S S S and M M M" part, so it was just a cute little instrumental synth break lol
Well I know that when Kanye West released the video for his song “All Falls Down,” MTV bans one part of the song. When he said “And the White Man get paid off of all of that,” MTV cut that out of the video when they were airing the video on their channel
I remember so many K-pop censor bans here and there, it would really take awhile to remember them all. But I remember Dal Shabet’s career being especially effected by censors. As on the issue, I’m for freedom of expression, especially because I love most of the examples. But is is for certain audiences, and I respect if certain parts of the public square (like maybe an award show) need to have special considerations. That said, creating a world for everyone means catering to all ages and not dumbing anything down because we think kids will be scared. This issue def feels more complicated that music, I appreciate the examples you had!
Born free by m.I.a. is another video that was banned. It’s an anti war message a lot of her work is. Or anti racism. Like listen to sun showers it’s a cute little bop at first then it’s a sad political message that gets me in my feels for part of one verse like wtf. Also congrats at over 100 vids honestly you always make such good informative ones.
'Underneath Your Clothes' by Shakira was banned in Argentina, because her than boyfriend Antonio le la Rua, who was a son and advisor of Argentine ex president (He resigned because of crisis), appeared in the MV. I think they even didn't allow to sell her album Laundry Service at the time. You could also make whole video about Eminem.
Omg thanks for metioning my country Lebanon when you mentioned Fairouz suing Madonna for sampling one of her songs, you even pronounced Fairouz so well! 😊😊😊😊😊😊

Part 2 idea! "Die Young" by Kesha being pulled because of the Sandy Hook shooting (as well as "Pumped Up Kicks" by Foster The People). "Die Young" was at #2 (predicted to hit #1) when the ban happened, causing the song to drastically freefall, and never recover.
Very good ones! I guess the pt 2 has to happen!
people can say what they want about Madonna but she really pushed that envelope at a time no one else really was!
I’ve never realized how much Kelly Rowland and Donna Summer resemble each other
People have been wanting Kelly to portray Donna in a biopic for quite some time 😍. Kelly portrayed a young Gladys Knight quite superbly too in BET's show American Soul.
I SAID THE SAME THING!! I was wondering if anybody else would say it! ❤

i remember Judas by Lady Gaga was banned on radio because christian’s were mad at the song
And didn't she drop it Easter weekend? Iconic.
She dropped it on Holy Thursday when the video took place! I thought that was genius! (I grew up Catholic and love this song so much!)
My favorite Gaga song. She was truly in one with that.
The hair, the video, the ✨essence✨
Get into it.
Also, this reminds me of when the song '3' by Britney Spears used to have the word "sin" backwards when on the radio. Lmao
R u for real… also why did I just find out MONTHS ago what that song is about
@@naomi.cannibal lmao yes it would be like, "living in NIS is the new thing"... And girl, yasss it's about group seggs chile. Up to 5 @ a time. The double entendres are endless in the lyrics

Madonna was always so ahead of her time, in so many aspects. She doesn't deserve all the hate, misogyny and ageism she gets. Pop music wouldn't be the same without her.
It's funny how controversial Madonna was back in the day. Her performance at the first ever MTV video awards was controversial for her wedding dress coming up and showing off more than she felt comfortable showing, at the time, and it really set precedent for her working relationship with MTV. Also, the lead single from that album wasn't her first choice ("like a virgin"), so she just took the direction the execs and label had went with for her, at the start of her MTV reign. She just went forward with in her career by pushing the envelope, so I'm not surprised she had been banned. LOVE MADONNA.
She really is the blueprint. Pop music and female solo artists may have turned out very different historically if not for her tenacity and creativity.
@@hunterwilliams8923 She is ONE of the blueprints but she certainly didn't do it ALONE. Let's give credit to Cher being the first woman showing her belly button on TV, Donna Summer moaning for 10 minutes straight onstage and singing about sex work (Bad Girls), Grace Jones in EVERYTHING she ever did. Let's not forget Janet Jackson who was Madonna's only peer who was pushing the envelope but from a black woman's lens. Janet was the orginal "Good Girl Gone Bad" with her "Janet" album era in the early 90s when she went from all the fully covered black military clothes to being topless on the cover of Rolling Stone, went from Let's Wait Awhile to Anytime, Anyplace, Throb... The BDSM and lgbt themes and imagery of The Velvet Rope album era (Free Zone, Rope Burn lap dance performance). She did it before Mariah's Honey/Butterfly era, Britney's Slave 4 U era, Xtina's Dirty/Stripped era, Rihanna's GGGB/Rated R eras, Miley's Can't Be Tamed/Bangerz eras, Chloe's Have Mercy/Treat Me era, Janelle Monae's Age Of Pleasure era....
madonna is an artist in the sense that she is always fearlessly expressing herself. 👍
the fact that 90 % of these are songs by women..
For an eventual part 2:
The ban Lady Gaga has when it comes to performing in Russia after defending LGBT+ rights.
Censorship forcing her to cancel a sold out stadium show in Indonesia in 2012 for not having licenses granted with her never performing there since ( so it's probably a permanent ban ) ...
She also was banned again in China years after the born this way one was lifted over meeting the dalaï lama.
Her Alejandro performance on American idol was also edited which I believe is pretty rare for TV performances.
Her video for Alejandro was banned from airing on most time slots on MTV too.
Also this absurd Iranian streaming site melovaz that modify female artists artworks to the point they sometimes blur or erase them fully that could give you many examples for a part 2. They did it with many of Gaga's singles covers.
The first one is more of an honorary ban, if anything. Being banned from a country for being a decent human being.
@@prettierjesus3119 I so agree, it's a ban you can be proud of. 💪
My Chemical Romance was banned from Orange, California in 2004 because they played a show in a parking lot and apparently swore too much 💀
“Controversy creates cash.”
- Eric Bischoff
Now that is very true
Eric would know a lot about that😂😂😂
In part 2, you should talk more about Britney Spears. When “Slave 4 U” came out, radio banned her and wouldn’t play ANY of her music. Her video for “Toxic” was also banned.
Her videos is soo sexy. Too bad it wasnt a hit. She was young at the time. Dont forget to add Christina Aguilera about video "Dirty."
The video to Toxic was just bumped to late night viewing at the time for it had followed Janet Jackson's SuperBowl Incident.
@@ryanappleton3653speaking of Janet Jackson. Slave 4 U was originally for her, but she turned it down for obvious reasons. 😬
I don't know if it's technically considered "banned", but the country world boycotting The Chicks (fka the dixie chicks) has always fascinated me.
I'd love a video on this topic!
the time when the entire "All For You" album by Janet Jackson was banned in Singapore for moaning too much on Would You Mind 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
ooo if i do a pt 2 that’s gotta be there 4 sure
Who would’ve thought that F*ck the Police by NWA would birth hardcore, gritty gangsta rap music?
M.I.A.'s Born Free video was one of the first videos to be banned on TH-cam
Born Free was a momentttttt
I think it would be awesome if you did a part two and talked about the fact that Britney Spears was literally banned from US radio because of a contract or something from 2001-2004 I believe. It also leads into the fact that songs like "I'm A Slave 4 U" didn't chart as high because of the radio ban, and songs like "Toxic" exploded on the radio because I believe it was the first song of hers that was released after the ban was lifted.
love how informative this video is & hearing about the liberation artists in history have held. thank you as always!
Thank you so much!
im sorry the funniest ban is the blackpink one for driving laws that is so highly unserious on Korea's part 😭
Here in the Philippines, the song "My Way" by Frank Sinatra was not banned, but it has heavy superstitions around it. There was a phenomenon of people singing that song frequently, then in the mid-2000's a guard shot a man singing it "off-key". Many people don't sing it much anymore since then. Everytime I hear it in a karaoke bar I get a little surprised everytime and I always think "wow I thought this was banned" lol
I’ll have to look into that!!
No one asked. Philipinos are so hungry for attention 😂
I find it funny how kbs banned Boombayah for "Vugler lyrics'' but still allowed newjeans cookie despite the lyrics being like 100x worse than Boombayah, and the age of the members along with mhj's past when she was in sm dose not help.
Kylie Minogue's video for All The Lovers was banned in Indonesia because there is gay kissing in it, Kylie refused to remove it because that completely ruins the message of the song.
Queen tings
Madonna should be acknowledged more for always pushing the boundaries at a time when nobody else did! She really did help a lot of marginalized people by creating visibility and speaking up about political issues when she could‘ve just stayed silent and pleased the general public like a lot of other artists did. She risked her career a lot to fight for a good cause. ❤ I will always admire her for that!
The M in MTV stands for Madonna. She is the queen of controversy but also the queen of self promotion. ✌🏼💜
First of all, the new look is beautiful Naomi.
I Always heard this type of things about Madonna. I remember when i was just a kid my mom didn't wanted me to listen her erótica álbum😂
Thank you so much!!
Michael Jackson’s “They Don’t Really Care About Us” original had antisemetic lyrics (kick me, k**ke me) and he was forced to re-record and re-release the song. At the time it had already been widely distributed to music sellers and all copies of the original had to be pulled from shelves. Imagine how costly this was at the time?
Michael apologize to Jews Community. He love the people. So yes he did video in Brazil. but the video banned the Prison Version from MTV.
I would love for you to make a Video on Pop Song writers like Bonnie McKee and Ester Dean and how they ruled the 2010's
Surprised you did not mention Do What You Want, Gaga featuring R Kelly. Maybe pulled rather than banned? Most serious example of a banned video I can think of
Not surprised 😮
It was cancelled by Gaga herself not properly banned.
@@naomi.cannibal If you make a part 2 could you please add the ban Lady Gaga has when it comes to performing in Russia after defending LGBT+ rights? 😁 She also had censorship forcing her to cancel a sold out stadium show in Indonesia in 2012 for not having licenses granted and she never performed there since so it may be a permanent ban...

Thank you for bringing "Strange Fruit" to my attention. What a devastating, sublime, beautiful, haunting performance. If I were hearing it for the first time, I think I'd have to collect myself for a bit before I had the presence of mind to clap.
That letter from the FBI was the BEST thing to happen for NWA.
BET banning Ciara's "Ride" is quite befuddling...
Perhaps they forgot about their "Uncut" series...
if you do make a part 2, Lady Gaga’s song “Do What You Want” was banned because of R Kelly being arrested for what he did
It was never banned, she removed it from streaming platforms herself.
@@MuglerMonstre yup
@@MuglerMonstre but the music video was banned and nvr released because she was master baring in it
@@kuchiskali4160 I believe it didn't even have the time to be banned since they decided to not air it.
Imo the version with just her and Christina Aguilera (Without R Kelly) is way better.
Prince’s Darling Nikki would be great for a part 2 - its the song that is responsible for parental advisory stickers
It’s interesting you didn’t mention ban of Christina Aguilera video for Beautiful for supporting LGBT and Dirrty for being to sexy. Xtina was always ahead of her time.
Like I said, video wasn’t a list of every banned song, but that’s a great contender for a part 2
@@naomi.cannibal I know. I just felt those should be in part 1 considering the impact they have. Those are classics.

@@naomi.cannibal Im all for part 2 and dont forget to add more rappers got banned too.
You know you made it when you get banned... So to be clear Madonna wasn't the original banned queen or artist to be controversial. Didn't mtv want Bad Romance to be edited or something like that?
Madonna wasn’t the original but she definitely helped heavily push the envelop and helped form what we see from female artists today
@@omarslayz Thanks for saying it cause Madonna's often presented as the pioneer when it comes to that. 🤔
She gets nearly all the credits with her elders ( specially black women artists like Donna summer, Nina Simone Grace Jones, Billie Holiday etc ) bold moves being erased or forgotten "to her profit". 😔
another saturday another slay from naomi cannibal 🙏🏼😌
If you do make a part 2, I think it would be interesting to continue looking at worldwide standards compared to local ones. For example, Japanese artists Namie Amuro & Koda Kumi have been banned for the sexual nature of their songs in a few countries (Namie for her song "WANT ME, WANT ME" & Kumi for her songs "SHAKE IT", "Selfish", and "KO-SO-KO-SO", among others) when American audiences wouldn't have batted an eye
I went to an Afrocentric elementary school and we used to have to recite Strange Fruit. I’m not sure how I’d feel about my kids reciting it now. I didn’t have much understanding of what I was saying back then but I’m grateful that they opened my eyes up so early.
Fun fact - I think Gaga's music is banned in Belarus and Russia due to her being an LGBTQ+ ally who has spoken out against the Russian government. My work uploaded a video with Lady Gaga music in it and we found the video was automatically banned in Belarus and Russia.
She's not an ally she's bi and has stated it many times
@@RollingOnFire She's both bi and an ally for the LGBTQ community.
Well, she wasn't banned from local music channels and radio stations (not sure about Belarus though), her concert promoters in Russia were fined for her so-called "homosexual propaganda" on stage
You could make an entire series solely covering metal bans. It's more uncommon for a metal band to NOT be banned or threatened with a ban or an arrested because of their music. It's absolutely insane.
I wanted to say how much I appreciate the work and research that you put into each of your videos. You're not afraid to talk about controversial topics or social issues. I respect that. This video DEFINITELY needs a part 2. Keep up the great work, Naomi! ❤
Thank you!! 💕
For a part two, Taylor Swift was banned from country radio for moving to pop. Love to hear more about that.
Zedd was banned from China for liking a South Park tweet.
The madonna one was seriously wild lol
I missed the “Jukebox” or “The Box” video channel. They played all the banned videos that MTV didn’t play. I remember seeing “Justify My Love” playing often. They even played Sir Mix A Lot’s “Put ‘Em On The Glass”. Lol!
I miss 'Jukebox' so much...that was a fun time.
That sucks. I used to watch The Box whenever i was in London because i was also always a fan of music channels airing music videos back in the day
BANNING BECAUSE OF BRAND ENDORSEMENTS!?!!!!?!!😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Naomi, every time I open youtube you’re on top of my feed with a new video & I can’t complain 🥰✨
Thank you for putting so much effort, research and time into your videos ❤️
I think there's also a case where an EXO song got banned or censored? Idk. One of their songs, "Lotto", changed to 'Louder' in music shows because the song comes off as promoting gambling. If i got the information wrong, anyone can explain down there in the replies please!
Haha yes bestie it’s in the vid ♥️
Red light by fx was also banned because they mentioned caterpillar and the broadcasting stations didn't know it meant catapillar but the brand catapillar, and made fx change the lyrics when they'd perform it on stage but later on, they were allowed to say the word catapillar in performances. It was also controversial because it was criticising the Sewol Ferry incident and how it was handled.
EXID's first hit song "Up and Down" got banned from music shows for the "sexual" choreo so EXID mocked the music shows by having another comeback "ah Yeah" which talked about censorship when it came to female idols and workplace harassment.
my favorite banned mv is nature's 'girls'
the uncensored version is CRAZY omg, like its horror-based and the scene where the axe hits the girl in the eye at the end-
I definitely want a part 2 to this, it was very informative to me.
I’m 99% sure I’ll do it since so many asked. And I’m happy to!
I am so mixed on female promiscuity because while it can be empowering for women to show their sexiness, they are just adding to the objectivity when they twerk and grind against the floor or the guys. It sends a mixed message.
I would say this about the guys too. Why do men (she asks rhetorically) just have women stand there with revealing clothing and have them lap dance the entire video. In most videos we barely see their faces. Some of the women’s videos show more of their butts than their faces too.
Maybe it is a genre thing to me, but there are other ways to show you’re sexy.
I also hate the double standards. While there were songs by both male and female artists on this list, men were banned for going against the system. Women are banned for swearing and showing their promiscuity while if men did it by objectifying women, it is fine. The purity standards are annoying.
This is why I’m subscribed. So many songs that I didn’t even realize was so controversial at the time!
In K-pop, even choreographies are being banned, especially if they are deemed too unfit for music show stages and idols are asked to change the choreography in order to perform their comeback on music shows.
Regarding Madonna's 2003 controversy, she also pulled her video in response to an incident that occurred around that time involving the country music trio The Chicks (then known as the Dixie Chicks). On March 10, 2003, nine days before the invasion of Iraq, the Chicks performed at the Shepherd's Bush Empire theater in London, England. It was the first concert of their Top of the World tour in support of their sixth album "Home". Lead singer Natalie Maines told the crowd, "Just so you know, we're on the good side with y'all. We do not want this war, this violence, and we're ashamed that the President of the United States is from Texas."
After the statement was reported by the British newspaper The Guardian, it triggered a backlash from American country listeners, who were mostly right-wing and supported the war. The Chicks, then one of the most popular country acts at the time, were blacklisted by many country radio stations, received death threats, and were criticized by other country musicians. The backlash damaged sales of the Chicks' music and concert tickets and lost them corporate sponsorship. A few days later, Maines issued an apology, saying her remark had been disrespectful. She rescinded the apology in 2006, saying she felt Bush deserved no respect.
Kylie Minogue’s M/V for All The Lovers was banned in multiple Asian countries in 2011 as it was seen to be too provocative
Why isnt WAP banned
A late uncle of mine was an actor in Madonnas like a prayer video clip, forever jealous of him !!
oh, that's so cool!
Lol not a video ban because she wasn't wearing a seatbelt and speeding lolol it violated traffic laws lolol stop playing the series
I honestly wonder how many male rappers' videos got banned by BET because the "Stupid Hoe" ban seems hypocritical. Maybe you could cover that in a part 2 video..?
Sis! 😍😍 I’m a fan on YOU and this HAIR!! Keep doing your thing. Love that your channel is growing.
Thank you so much 💕
Can't help but notice that it's mostly women getting banned for expressing their sexuality.
Whew!!!! This topic can probably have a part 2 and 3 done. The 2 Live Crew controversy where their records were banned and store owners could be arrested for selling them in places. Ice T and his rock band Body Count's song Cop K***er. On a lighter note, ppl trying to get Beyoncé's video Deja Vu banned because they felt her scenes dancing around Jay were too sexual and obviously the white rage around Formation. Rihanna's Man Down video etc. This topic is so interesting!!!
i'm not a blink, but all of the blackpink songs that were banned seem so miniscule & they rlly didn't deserve that imo lol
I started watching/subscribed before the face reveal and just want to say I love what you do.
Thank you so much queen ♥️
All I'm gonna say is this: there are a lot of songs I don't like or consider vulgar.
But I don't want any of them banned. I'll just avoid them or laugh at them.
Foo Fighters music video for song Low was banned from MTV because of cross-dressing.
Please cover the ban on Kesha's "Die Young". I believe Foster the People's "Pumped Up Kicks" was also banned around that time.
seems like most of my favourite songs from that time were banned erm this is crazy
None of the kpop songs are technically "banned". They just aren't passed from censor board, where their lyrics can be changed to uncensored words to promote on kbs or other networking systems, and even perform the cencored songs elsewhere in Korean concerts or fanmeets.
I love this video so much, I find this topic so fascinating especially concerning my idol Madonna, and you explained everything so well while not dragging it out. I would love to see a video on songs and videos that weren’t banned but which caused a great deal of controversy!
I feel like in this modern era with streaming, radio play doesn’t mean anything anymore. If a radio refuses to play a song or at the very least a censored version why even bother when we can get it on Spotify/apple music/ TH-cam. It’s honestly not even about “morality” it’s freedom of speech you should have the choice to listen to what you want. And the whole Madonna/Donna/Gaga controversy is baffling to me as Christian or other religious music gets the pass when it in itself is pushing a narrative. (Unpopular opinion)
Of I forgot to also mention this not in the video (if anyone actually cares to read my comments) but Lil Nas X in 2020 for the “Call me by your name” MV was deemed Satanic and disrespectful by Christians when it literally is depicting gays in hell which is what they always have to say about LGBT rights so I never understood why they cared it’s not like he was depicting himself as an angel flying up to heaven to lap dance God. Could you imagine that back lash?
I'm glad you made the video this long, gave you time to really get into all the specific details about each song
This reminded me of when I was younger and Rihanna's S&M came out. On the radio station I listened to, the words "chains" and "whips" were censored with a classic record scratching/sudden slow down, which kept me from knowing the real meaning of the song until I was a bit older. But this year I heard it on a different station completely uncensored (and my coworker loudly singing along to it)! Apparently it was only the BBC that decided to change those lines and rename the song to "Come On" whereas other stations kept it as is. They also completely cut her vocals from the post-chorus "S S S and M M M" part, so it was just a cute little instrumental synth break lol
Thank you!!!
Wow, that's some heavy editing 😂 I really didn't think broadcasters could do all that 😅
as an Spaniard, i have to say, you gave a very good sight about Rosalía and all issues related to her. Congratulations Naomi!
Toda la apropiación cultural de rosalía dices tú 👀
Well I know that when Kanye West released the video for his song “All Falls Down,” MTV bans one part of the song. When he said “And the White Man get paid off of all of that,” MTV cut that out of the video when they were airing the video on their channel
The K-Pop problematic lyrics are so sweet you can play them at a kindergarten party😂🤣💀
Prince also has alot of banned content, but it would probably take too long to get into it.
Facts. I mean they were using his lyrics at Congress to talk about censoring and banning certain kinds of music.
He created too but he is a genius. Still miss him everyday.
I wonder how Kill Bill got so far.. interesting
I remember so many K-pop censor bans here and there, it would really take awhile to remember them all. But I remember Dal Shabet’s career being especially effected by censors. As on the issue, I’m for freedom of expression, especially because I love most of the examples. But is is for certain audiences, and I respect if certain parts of the public square (like maybe an award show) need to have special considerations. That said, creating a world for everyone means catering to all ages and not dumbing anything down because we think kids will be scared. This issue def feels more complicated that music, I appreciate the examples you had!
Born free by m.I.a. is another video that was banned. It’s an anti war message a lot of her work is. Or anti racism. Like listen to sun showers it’s a cute little bop at first then it’s a sad political message that gets me in my feels for part of one verse like wtf. Also congrats at over 100 vids honestly you always make such good informative ones.
'Underneath Your Clothes' by Shakira was banned in Argentina, because her than boyfriend Antonio le la Rua, who was a son and advisor of Argentine ex president (He resigned because of crisis), appeared in the MV. I think they even didn't allow to sell her album Laundry Service at the time. You could also make whole video about Eminem.
