They became more conscious toward women in their third album Ladies Edition, Woman's World. [http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1429843/19971015/h_town.jhtml mtv.com] The album's theme is making up for past transgressions with women. A theme conveyed in songs such as "Don't Sleep on the Female", "Julie Rain" (a sobering account of spousal abuse), and "Jezebel". The album was dedicated to Nicole Brown Simpson and "all the women of the world". Twenty national women helplines were also listed on the back cover.
