Luther Campbell

Luther Campbell has undergone a series of startling public transformations over the course of his long and eventful career. He first exploded onto the national scene as the ribald frontman of raunchy Miami bass legends 2 Live Crew , dragging bass firmly in the mainstream with hits like “Me So Horny.” But when a Broward county sheriff named Nick Navarro announced that record stores selling 2 Live Crew’s 1989 breakthrough hit As Nasty As They Wanna Be were potentially criminally liable for breaking state obscenity laws, Campbell became an unlikely First Amendment martyr. Bruce Springsteen even gave him permission to use “Born In The U.S.A.” for “Banned In The U.S.A.,” a single spoofing his legal travails. Campbell emerged triumphant, but a few years later he found himself back in court, this time after the publishing company Acuff-Rose sued 2 Live Crew for spoofing “Pretty Woman,” whose copyright it owned. The Supreme Court upheld that parody constituted “fair use” under the legal definition and consequently was protected by the constitution, a ruling that helped expand the parameters of what constitutes free speech. 

In between legal battles, Luther Campbell somehow found time to run his own record label, break new stars like H-Town , and release albums both as a solo artist and with 2 Live Crew. Campbell has aged into an elder statesman role in hip-hop over the last decade as his focus has shifted from music and business to filming a reality show featuring his family ( Luke’s Parental Advisory ), coaching football, writing a provocative column for the Miami New Times , and now running for the mayor of Miami-Dade county. The A.V. Club recently spoke with the controversial Southern rap icon about the Tea Party, why his early X-rated shows were maybe “a little more outgoing” than church folk were comfortable with, and whether or not Floridians try to get him high when he shows up at their front door to campaign. 

The A.V. Club: What inspired you to run for mayor? 

Luther Campbell: Miami-Dade County, it’s a banana republic we live in. When you have public housing projects being taken over by the federal government, and at the same time you’re having the transit department taken over by the federal government, and police are killing innocent young men in certain neighborhoods, the community gets into an uproar and has been for years.
