I mean, I can get the concept of bleeping F-bombs or releasing edited versions of songs that are going on broadcast radio. If I were a parent I wouldn't want my six-year old belting out "Fuck you, and fuck her too" after listening to the unedited version of the Cee Lo track on the radio. Hell, I cringed when I heard my young nephew singing the hook to DMX's "Up In Here", and asked him where he heard it. Apparently he'd heard the radio-edited version of it, and while it's a catchy hook, the rest of the lyrics are not something you want a grade-school-age white kid signing.
That all being said, they edited out "Eskimo"? That's about the most spineless bullshit I've ever heard. The only reason it's considered offensive is because a bunch of woke, racist, white busybodies got their panties in a bunch on behalf of a native people.
