What "adult content" was in the movie? Was there nudity or cursing?

lol. Seriously? That's not adult content but cruel and unusual punishment!

It was originally a Broadway musical by Stephen Sondheim, so the singing is central to the story. If anything, the movie toned down the "adult content" from the original show.
And by "adult content", this is by Disney standards. There's definitely some situations that the "chillins" will not quite grasp.

The average naval aviator, despite the sometimes swaggering exterior, is very much capable of such feelings as love, affection, intimacy, and caring. These feelings just don't involve anyone else.

This reminds me of that time when I got dragged to see "Evita". Not only was every word spoken in the film sung but it also starred Madonna. I felt like I was in a jail cell for two hours.

There's a difference between a musical and an operetta which is what "Evita" is. In a musical not every single word is sung. I actually like movies such as Moulin Rouge and Chicago.

What's that from? I certainly don't remember it in Blues Brothers.
From the Blues Brothers when they went to recruit an old band member and found him working in a fine dining French restaurant and they started harassing the other diners when the old band member refused to rejoin the band.
Found the clip on YouTube (amazing what you can find on YouTube)

The Blues Brothers film is a great example of having all of the stars in alignment and having a dynamite cast snd script that simply translated perfectly from the script pages to the screen.
They tried to make lightning strike twice with Blues Brothers 2000 and failed miserably.
