6669. Sir Mix-a-Lot - Put 'Em on the Glass
![]() |
| From: Chief Boot Knocka; Year: 1994; Genre: Hip-Hop/Rap |
Final pick for my "Satanic Panic Theme;" I wanted to go more upbeat to wrap this up. This was one of the many songs to make reference to the Satanic Panic and the PMRC. Despite the outcome of record labels having to put the Parental Advisory stickers on albums, it obviously did not do a single thing to temper more extreme musical artists and arguably made finding such material easier for underage people to find with that iconic label.
A lot of other artists took a more explicit and derogatory stance in their response to that moral panic and subsequent ones still going on to this day, but I really liked Sir Mix-a-Lot's straight-up statement in this song: "How many times will you play this, before you ban this? I heard Mrs. Gore can't stand this."
