Do they use profanity, disrespect women and glamourise violence?

Misogyny: Sort of, but not so much*.
Glamorisation of violence: Sort of... yes**.
Profanity***: ✓
*Can I Kill It is deffo a s*x tune, with lots of derogatory terms for women thrown about, but it's vanilla compared to other stuff (already played here).
**Quite a lot of 'tales from the hood', but nothing especially gratuitous - people get shot on the odd track, but it's to a slinky, jazz soundtrack.
***Yes, profanity. However, specifically none on one track (the title track).

Oh, I though the original quote was 'whenever possible'.
It's been years since I saw Fear of a Black Hat.

We should in truth do The Chronic, but it's an hour long.
Or Straight Outta Compton, but it's over an hour long.
Or Efil4Zaggin, but...

Re: Comptons Most Wanted - Straight Checkn 'Em (1991)
It's a shame really.
I'm listening to Efil4Zaggin right now and it's as awesome as it was the first time I heard it.
Jaw-to-the-floor.
It got banned for a bit before it was finally officially released in the UK.
The production is Dre's best, the lyrics and flow and cadence from the 'crew' is on point.
Dre gets the laurels for the overall sound, but Ren really holds court lyrically.

It is (deliberately) outrageously vile, offensive, misogynistic, crass and monstrous from a lyrical perspective in every respect however.

n.b.
The track "Driveby Miss Daisy" features a lot of 'girl screaming/'r*pey' sounds, but it is in fact a sample of the actor Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, as Gina Montana, screaming at the end of Brian De Palma's 1983 gangster epic Scarface.

I've skipped the first track as I'm a bit late.
