So no swearing or anything like that. Of course I know about Will Smith, but I'm sure there are others out there.

curious why youre asking

because theres no real reason to keep your music clean, so even lyrical rappers have cursing now and then

a good chunk of Tribes lyrics are clean but even they wouldnt fit the criteria for this topic

I still haven't dove into his library yet. I know I'm late, really late, but I will at some time

However, I'm asking for a 2 year old, lol. He likes music a lot, and he's really into Kris Kross' Jump, lol. So I was thinking to myself, I wonder what else would be fun for him to listen to.

GOAT.

MF DOOM didn't cuss but his style was much grimier than most.

When I think "clean" rappers Mos Def, KRS-ONE and Slick Rick all come to mind.

Slick Rick


LOL WTF not really sure how you managed to come up with Slick Rick as a clean rapper. Slick Rick literally has a song called lick the balls

Dude is mad raunchy

Rakim. I believe he may have cussed once or twice, but overall, hes a clean rapper.

Chamillionaire attempted it. But his attempt was to just censor the curses instead of write songs without them. It was stupid. But I still bumped the shit out of Ultimate Victory when it dropped

GZA did the same. Well, he did it first.

For sure. Another one I need to do a really big deep dive into. Make sure there isn't anything too offensive, and put them on a playlist. Thanks

I haven't listened to him, but I heard that NF makes a conscious effort to keep his music clean.

same with Lecrae, but he's a Christian rapper, I think.

Ma$e did it the right way and that was actually a decent album >_>

Lupe Fiasco doesn't casually curse in his songs, if he does its usually for a reason within the verse.

He is, you're right but his dirty lyrics are far more nuanced. He just doesn't rely on vulgarities as much

Eh... I feel like his last solo album, Drogas Wave, had a decent amount of swearing and other lyrics I wouldn't call kid friendly. Great album lyrically though.

His earlier songs should be fine. I don't remember any swearing in say 'Instrumental' or 'Superstar'. And 'Hip Hop Saved My Life' has a clean version that's not bad.
