This is not about Jamaicans or race…this is about right and wrong…Im sorry, but Im much more frightened of those slasher rock bands that talk about disfiguring people, being sadistically evil against what is differnt, and glorifying satanism….To me thats a true abomination, where as Hip Hop and Reggae is based on poor people struggling to survive in an overly aggressive place and identifying with there struggle…they just say what they feel they have to and they should…the degrading of women was popular long b4 hip hop and reggae through rock…but who talks about that…violence…well, if thats what u see every day where u live, and if u feel that if u dont speak like u would do the same thing that u saw sumone do, but still knew it was wrong, then it could happen to you, can u really blame them…and the gay thing, well…sum people were raised one way and reLLY dont know any better, the Jamaican cultur is highly against gays and thats just the way it is…can anyone get mad at the Jews for saying if ur not Jewish ur going to hell…or Christianity or Islam for that matter…? its all a matter of opinion, dont ban the music, try to understand the culture, theres more to reggea hip hop and other black music then Bling Bling, shoot em up, and lets all F*ck these B*tches…it just doesnt get mainstream radio play…I am a Jamaican that loves all types of music, I dont promote negativity and I seldom listen to music that tells me that being negative is good…but I must admit that I love sex, drugs and guns in movies….so whats worse…? the 10 highest paid musicians that get promoted to glorify guns, violence, anti gay & degrading of women to the people that want to hear it, tune in to the radio stations, buy tickets to concerts or purchase the CDs …or the TV and movie makers that promote those very same things but even more graphically as they include imagery and advertising that make it even look better to children and adults alike…actually to everyone that has a TV and watches commercials and movies on them…? If you want to talk about wrong, we should start there…Music is all about self expression, negative or positive, right or wrong…it cant really be judged cause its personal preference…If you dont want to hear it or see it, dont promote or support it…Now, for the people that for what ever reason do support it and promote it, its there choice to subject themselves to it…God gave us choice, and it shouldnt be judged or taken away, cause wheres the freedom and democracy in that!?!

I agree that bad music should be banned since it doesnt help the general public of Jamaica or any other country. We all need Psalms, Hymns,and Spiritual songs,Gods music.We can also come to have the new song by repenting of our sins against God our Creator and trusting the Lord Jesus Christ as our personal Saviour and God.Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved,and thy house.The Authoried King James Holy Bible of1611 is Gods preserved word in English language.Thank You,very kindly,
