BAD RAP A U.S. District Court last week aired a few Richard Nixon recordings that could use a parental-advisory label. Was Tricky Dick, not N.W.A.'s Ice Cube, the original gangsta? You decide:

NIXON "I want the whole g__d____ bunch gone after. Put down./ I also want Otis Chandler's income taxes.../ We're going after the Chandlers,/ Every one of those sons of b______ ."

N.W.A. "Ice Cube will swarm On any m_f_ in a blue uniform."

NIXON "I want you to scare him within an inch of his life."

N.W.A. "We'll go at it punk, I'm a f_____ you up."

NIXON "The k____ by the name of Rosenberg,/ He is to be out./ He is to be out. Transfer him to some other place out of L.A."

N.W.A. "Of cops, dying in L.A. / Yo Dre, I got something to say F_____ tha police."
