Photo: Danny Clinch Ok here’s the full audio of the controversial hip-hop performance that closed out this year’s Grammy Awards. As you’ll hear at the 50 sec mark, Wayne let the N-word fly. That’s probably what sent the censors into overdrive. In turn, they then dropped audio where they knew profanity was based on the lyric sheets.
