Luther Campbell, who went by the name Luke Skywalker until he was sued by Star Wars creator George Lucas, and his rap ensemble the 2 Live Crew broke through big with their 3rd album, 1989s As Nasty As They Wanna Be. Controversial and leading to obscenity charges against the group, with the album banned in several record stores, they became a cause celebre in the free speech debate and Bruce Springsteen would even allow them to sample his Born In The USA a couple of years later for their big hit Banned In The USA. 1989 saw their first Top 40 hit on Billboards Hot 100. Me So Horny reached #26 on the big chart and hit #1 on the rap chart. youtube/watch?v=u6VTj7LhCtE
