Anyone notice this? (music)

Even though this is already an R-rated movie with like 200 F-bombs by Danny McBride and everybody else, they still play the clean versions of songs with obscenities? I noticed this in the Beastie Boys song "Sure Shot," they reversed the word "ass," and censored some word in that Kid Cudi song. There may be more but I can't recall.

"Oh, my God. Bear is driving! How can that be?!"

I wonder if maybe they secured the rights to use those songs before they knew what rating the movie was going to take. I know studios prefer the PG or PG-13 ratings, so they can make more cash...so they might have purchased the cleaner versions, just in case.

It's not that I'm lazy, it's that I just don't care.
