I've been listening to this clip repeatedly. When first watching the Heavy Breathing music video "I NO LUV" I thought I heard the phrase "baby porn" being uttered at about 2:20 in the video. I scrolled through the comments and others thought they heard the phrase too.

It appears this is what is being said, especially when played at 0.5 speed. Is there anyone here, a linguistics expert or someone with word recognition technology that can help confirm this?

Its either baby "porn" or baby "born", but based on the content of this video I doubt they would be referencing childbirth.

The reason I think the second word is "porn" rather than "born" is that you can hear the aspiration in 'p' at the beginning, again especially when played at 0.5 speed. I have a moderate background in linguistics and phonetics - both 'p' and 'b' are known as "bilabial stops." The difference is that 'b' is not aspirated and 'p' is aspirated. There is a good example on Wikipedia that shows the differences with an audio clip: differences between b and p (note the difference between "pin" and "bin")
