Get Rich Or Die Tryin

An email from a listener:

For a little while now, between local informational and station identification pieces, I've heard segments of interlude music that I find somewhat offensive.  The music in question is a remixed instrumental version of 50 Cent's rap "Get Rich or Die Tryin," better known as "P-I-M-P."

Some of the lines that bother me specifically include: I don’t know what u heard about me,
But a bitch can’t get a dollar out of me, No Cadillac, no perms u can’t see, That I'm a motherfucking P-I-M-P, A hour later had her ass up in the Ramada, I’m your friend, your father, your confidant, BITCH, Man this ho, you could have her when I’m done I ain't gonna keep her.

Thanks for looking into this.

My response: I'm glad you're listening, you mofo PIMP. I thought it was pretty rad that NPR would use a 50 Cent song as a music bed. I am confused about the lyrics, since you admitted that what you heard was instrumental, do you really think the old lady hoes listening know those lyrics? I think not. I think you know the lyrics because you listen to 50 Cent in the shower. How about this, would you like to meet at the Ramada for an hour? I'm up for it. I am also up for bringing the perm back. Let's hang out at the Ramada downtown and give each other perms and help you get past these pesky lyrics you didn't hear.
