![The Fame Monster [Deluxe Edition] [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/prescaled/500/500/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/79ed2825-48c8-4827-9b25-3c502c18bffe.jpg)

I love Lady Gaga. Her music is expressive, great dance beats, awesome to work to. Her lyrics are expressive, progressive.
Aaaaaand censored.
There was no censorship labeling on the cd.
I am new to Lady Gaga (only started listening to her about 2 weeks ago) and am not very familiar with her music. So when I purchased "The Fame Monster" last night, it didn't occur to me that it should have had an "explicit lyrics" sticker. I did, however, give it a once-over to be sure it wasn't labelled "Clean LP" and saw nothing of the sort.
As this cd is not properly labeled as censored, and there was no way for me to know this without having listened to it, I will be returning this cd, opened or not. I am an adult and do not need to be told what I can and cannot listen to, by anyone. Not the FCC and not the record company.

I purchased this music at Best Buy to avoid the censorship that Walmart forces on its customers. The music industry chases down those that pirate music but then turns around and punishes those that are honest and spend our hard earned money on their products.
I, for one, am not going to put up with it. I like Gaga's music, but I can't condone this kind of behavior from the record company. I am taking my CD back to the store and demanding a refund.

If you want to send a message to the music company take your CDs back and don't be afraid to voice your opinion, that you don't believe in censorship.
What's great about it: Gaga is outspoken and amaising
What's not so great: Censorship - Not Labelled as such
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
