A study conducted by Musixmatch has found that Lil Wayne and Chief Keef are the most profane artists in mainstream music.
The study analyzed the lyrics from the studio albums of 361 artists across eight genres. Hip Hop was found to be the most profane genre, followed by Heavy Metal.
Lil Wayne was the artist who used the most profanity, having used 3,960 profane words in his 12 albums. The words he utilizes most frequently are “nigga” “bitch” and “fuck.” The New Orleans rapper is followed by Tupac with 3,742 words throughout his 13 albums and Snoop Dogg with 3,535 words in 13 LPs.
Chief Keef led the field in frequency of swear words with one per every 20 words in his four albums studied. His profanities of choice are “bitch,” “shit” and “nigga.” Dr. Dre as a solo artist and N.W.A member follow with one profane word every 21 and 22 words, respectively.
The study analyzed frequency as well as quantity in order to make up for the skewed numbers in the first statistic because artists who have released more material would naturally have higher quantity of profanity.

I believe people curse because they lack the intelligence to express themselves in detail. Obscenities are one syllable words that represent angry animal sounds like hissing an growling. Many that curse frequently dont have much of anything to say an don’t mind showing it off to others. Harsh words are a form of violence.. May Peace Prevail

A bitch ass ungrateful ninja, that’s that shit I don’t like
Thanks as. i hope you grow old an die.
Thanks so called Truth. i hope you feel better about your life now having put that out into the world.
This study is obviously flawed. Chief Keef is an extremely intelligent and articulate person. Watch any interview with him or Lil Durk and you can see how prestigious and effective the Chicago Public Schools education system is. Not exactly sure how, but fuck it, I blame it on the white man.
Three of the most overrated gimmicky rappers ever: Lil’ Wayne, Tupac and Snoop Dogg. Go figure.
I need yo mothers IG name you sucker ass nigga
I’d like to kneel between Lil Wayne and Chief Keef and just hold their cocks. Just tug on it like and smack them across my face until they explode like an angry fire hydrant.
Stupid list its only gon be looking at the big selling or rappers with big internet buzz right now u know Beanie Sigel Styles P Ghostface Killah Pimp C and a hundred other rappers besaying the craziest shit and its actually dope rhymes or funny as hell bars
But it’s difficult for Keef to create complex rhymes because his vocabulary is limited to about two hundred words total.
