N.W.A. | Fuck Tha Police (1988)

"Fuck the Police" is a protest song by American hip hop group N.W.A that appears on the 1988 album Straight Outta Compton as well as on the N.W.A's Greatest Hits compilation.

The lyrics protest police brutality and racial profiling and the song was ranked number 425 on Rolling Stone's 2003 list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.


In 2021, Rolling Stone re-ranked the song at number 190 in an updated list.


Since its release in 1988, the "Fuck the Police" slogan continues to influence pop culture today in the form of T-shirts, artwork, political expression, and has transitioned into other genres as seen in the cover versions by Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, Dope, Rage Against the Machine, and Kottonmouth Kings (featuring Insane Clown Posse).
