Buju Banton

Batty Rider has nothing to do with gay people. listen to the lyrics again. he wrote Boom Bye Bye when he was 15. yeah, i disagree with the lyrics in Boom Bye Bye and any kind of homophobia, but you have to understand the culture from which he comes. homosexuality is illegal and frowned upon in much of the caribbean. many west indians grow up believing it's wrong all of their lives because of their county's tradition and closed mindedness, so when they are exposed to the world outside their home country, they still have the same mentality they had when growing up. it's very hard to change something you were taught and led to believe your entire life. the same thing can be said about any nation and its respected vices that its inhabitants believe and practice. everyone is a product of his or her respected environment. what's seen as a wrong belief is all in the eye of the beholder. we all believe things that others would find repulsive, but that's part of the diversity of life.

I don't see how Batty Rider being #7 is evidence to it still being a relevant issue. All that means is people still listen to the song.

Oh, that poor, poor persecuted man. My heart bleeds for him. Or it would, if he had his way. He's been documented singing it multiple times after claiming he'd stopped (at least twice in 2007), and still in 2009 he's carrying on against faggots (fire burn batty, on youtube). If he had changed at all, he'd do something to show it. If it's no longer a relevant issue, why is this track #7? And no, listening to Buju doesn't mean you're homophobic -- it just means you're complacent enough that violent homophobia doesn't bother you.

llxx no he does not. People need to stop persecuting Buju over this bullshit. It's fucking lame dates on his US Tour had to got canceled over this no longer relevant issue. Just because one listens to Buju Banton's music doesn't make them Homophobic. Buju does not sing songs of hate, you need to understand this.
