I assumed the latter, partly because I had read the list of prohibitions (religious, rap music, or talk show programs) and partly because that’s what always comes to mind when I hear Rush, unless the context is obvious (and I’ve got the tagline to prove it.)

So banning music that’s full of N-words is considered racist.

The band or the talk show host?

Don Cornelius had excellent taste. He forbid (c)rap music on his show when it came out.
