Jamaica bans music that glorifies drug use and violence

[spliz]

I want the same people happy about this to stop watching Game Of Thrones, The Wire, Power, or any other violent show. I want them to stop playing Call Of Duty, Resident Evil, Doom, Battlefield. Or any other type of violent game. Let’s take all the violence out of superhero movies as well. No more horror movies either. Let’s ban all action movies that have violence and cursing in it.

Keeping it a buck would be someone who doesn't listen to any music that promotes violence and drug use and they took a stance. OR someone admitting "you know what I stopped listening to music that promotes drug usage and violence up to and including my favorite artists" who took a stance against it. Yet, I see people who speak out against current music that promotes violence and drug usage, but will openly listen to the artists whose music was just as violent and promoted drug usage. And the most egregious are the people who use the "Hip Hop promotes drug usage and violence" stance, but post on here everyday. Why are they here? If someone truly feels that way about the music and the culture, why are you actively discussing it and participating in it?

My thread I made is literally the gift that keeps on giving. Everything I said in that thread has been revealed since that thread. Lol.

There’s no nuance In thinking if there was no future than someone wouldn’t have done drugs

not necessarily.

Maybe he wouldn't have tried THAT drug.

There's a lot of dudes who got hooked on heroin because the grunge artists they loved so much used it all the time (or with jazz) Maybe Juice Wrld doesn't pick up lean if the artists he loved so much didn't make it seem so cool. It happens all the time. Makes it worse with Future when he doesn't even do those drugs himself.

Part of why we don't have a generation full of young crackheads is because hip-hop culture chose that drug to frown upon. Everything else is fair game.

alright I guess but unless you fix the underlying issues this isn't going to do anything, it's been the same cycle of poverty and killing before violent music granted the violence has gotten significantly worse in recent decades

They ban the music but dont run up on those record labels promoting it tho... i mean go to the source...

Good. Go further.

More pum pum loving music for me

Surprised they did it for TV too. So they won't air anything violent from outside Jamaica too? Would have preferred it if Radio and TV Stations mad that decision on their own. I feel like banning it will make people want it more like prohibition.

Now they need to ban artists and producers from creating murderous/junkie filth.







Time to bring back the clean feel-good vibes!!!

Anyone got a good Spotify playlist of the most violent reggae?

Jamaica would have to ban Mavado and Vybz Kartel's whole catalogs then.

Wont happen...

Those suits are in cahoots with each other.


Ain't no one trying to stop the Cash Flow of Drill Music.

 

[Mac Ten]

I remember a DJ in NYC said he's banning any drill music that disses dead people and nikkas in NY was up in arms

It was DJ Drewski..

Homeboy wouldn't care if they slipped him money aka Payola to play a drill record if it was hotter than Crisco.

Too paternalistic for me, I’ll pass on the censorship.
