Not Impressed!!!! Beenieman ................... artist supposedly backtracks on gay stance

News came this afternoon that the self professed King of The Dancehall has supposedly backtracked on his anti gay stance via a video posted on youtube. The vid does not look genuine to me and is just a public relations stunt to remain on the Rotatam Sunsplash bill as pressure continues to be mounted on Jamaican artists by various lobby groups worldwide to stop murder music coming from the stage.

Here is the video:

Beenie backtracks on gay stance
Begs gay community to forgive him for anti-gay songs

A repentant Beenie Man has issued an emotional apology to the international gay community. Beenie Man is booked to perform on the Rototam Sunsplash in Spain in August and seemed to apologise in an effort to stem any protests from the gay community which may prevent him from performing.

The entertainer has posted a video message in which he expressed his respect for persons of all races, creeds and sexual preferences.

"I respect each and every human being, regardless of which race or creed, regardless of which religious belief and regardless of which sexual preference you have including gay and lesbian people," he said.

According to the artiste he said he penned his anti-gay songs when he was much younger and immature and begged for forgiveness.

"Do not fight against me for some songs that I sing 20 years ago. There is no one in this world is the same person as how they was 20 years ago. I know I am not. I was a kid and I come from Waterhouse in one community. I never know what the world is like and the world is all about. Now I know that people live in the world that live their life differently from my life, I still have to respect and love human beings. So please I am begging you," he said.

As far as I am concerned he needs to retract ALL the songs he has done including the infamous "All Battyman fi Dead" (All Gays Must Die) or remove them from his repertoire as he and others like him are still earning royalties via publishing and sales outside of using PR stunts to appease the gay lobby.

All batty man fi dead! [All gays must be killed!
From you fuck batty den a coppa and lead
If you fuck ass, then you get copper and lead [bullets]
Nuh man nuh fi have a another man in a him bed
No man must have another man in his bed

Verse 3

unu push up unu head like some rassclaat girrafe
bus it inna two like moses staff
pick an stick a bare blood man a cough

Ya

Chorus

Pity that it took outsiders to get a half hearted apology in order to get his ass on the show and his own Jamaican kin despite their sexual orientation he pens and voices a song advocating gay men are to be shot in their heads. He MUST retract the songs from all mediums for me to be satisfied, we have had enough as far as I am concerned.

Here is a response via the Jamaica Observer

Peace and tolerance
