Album Info

Release Date: 1992-03-10

Labels: Warner Bros. Records, Rhyme $yndicate Records, Sire

This is the original banned version that was eventually pulled from the market and later reissued minus the Skit "Out in the Parking Lot" and the title track "Cop Killer"; which was replaced with a Rock rendition of "Freedom of Speech" from Ice-T's solo Rap album - Freedom of Speech... Just Watch What You Say in 1989. Also, the cover art 'tattoo' was changed from "Cop Killer" to "Body Count" due to negative responses.

Note: "Body Count" song first appeared on Ice-T's solo Rap album - O.G. Original Gangster in 1991. This was a promotional move on behalf of the band to test their fan base.
