Dutty-Dancehall Must Die!

Music is the rod and we are Moses

Leading God's children to the Promised Land

Music is the voice of his brother Aaron, yes

Preaching and comforting at the Father's command

We have the power to turn things around

It's for us to stand up when we fall to the ground

I say this with a smile, pause for a while, Lord

Listen my son, the prophets have come

Disgusting, Dysfunctional, Violent and Immoral Dirty-Dancehall must die. We must do all that is in our power to exterminate this vile and evil sub-culture from our society.

A person on Facebook posted a dance hall video and in that video a young woman was thrown on a table. She spread her legs and then the man took out a bottle of hot pepper sauce and began to pour it between her legs to cheers, excitement and merriment of a crowd of on-lookers, including children.

This is the type of behavior that we are now reduced to, where hot sauce poured between a woman’s legs is entertainment. I responded that this was the most disgusting thing I have ever seen, to which he responded that he sees nothing wrong with it as slavery was over and this represented expression and art created by a free people. “Art?”

Dutty-Dancehall-DJs

If after 300 years of slavery and colonization this is all we can come up with as expression and art, if this is all we come to, then what’s the point?

I separate dancehall into two different types. One is Real-Dancehall that promotes Social Consciousnesses, Livity, Positivity and Upliftment. The second form of dancehall I regard as Dutty-Dancehall and it is everything that Real-Dancehall is NOT. Dutty-Dancehall is an abomination unto everything that is good, wholesome. It is counterproductive and goes against the very foundation of Nation Building.

Some of the lyrics in Dutty-Dancehall, is engineering our young people to dehumanize each other. Where conflict resolution has been reduced to primal levels. If you feel a person did you wrong then kill them because Dutty-Dancehall advocates murder and violence to resolve conflicts.

Jamaica - Music and violence Jamaica is home to relaxed reggae beats and beautiful beaches. But the island has a dark side: young people especially lack jobs and opportunities and the murder rate is one of the world's highest. Many wonder if dancehall music plays a role.

It promotes for the most part, that everything should be reduced to Murder, Violence and Sex. Even the sex act is reduced to an act of stab it, ram it, violence! Everything leads to violence in Dutty-Dancehall and this message is continuously being pounded into the heads of our young people and is now being played out in real life.

US Federal law prohibits obscene, indecent and profane content from being broadcast on the radio or TV. Because obscenity is not protected by the First Amendment, it is prohibited on cable, satellite and broadcast TV and radio.  However, the same rules for indecency and profanity do not apply to cable, satellite TV and satellite radio because they are subscription services.

Each type of content has a distinct definition:

• Obscene content does not have protection by the First Amendment.  For content to be ruled obscene, it must meet a three-pronged test established by the Supreme Court: It must appeal to an average person's prurient interest; depict or describe sexual conduct in a "patently offensive" way; and, taken as a whole, lack serious literary, artistic, political or scientific value.
• 
  
• Indecent content portrays sexual or excretory organs or activities in a way that is patently offensive but does not meet the three-prong test for obscenity.
• 
  
• Profane content includes "grossly offensive" language that is considered a public nuisance.

DEATH AND DESTRUCTION

Kill Dem – Vybz Kartel

“Coof cuff cueff
Bwoy ah choke inna blood
Body stiff like it ah float inna flood
Don’t come inna Waterford wid a slug
Gaza rise di rifle weh soak inna mud
Wen mi ah war, memba seh noweh no deh far
Glot inna mi Jansport, mi dress up inna khaki
Like di seed ah Calabar
Don’t grab yuh gal, mi follow har
Wen she go pick up yuh little bwoy
Like scarface wid di bomb me drive behind har
Him neva dweet but me nuh care who inna di car…”

Badman a step – Aidonia

“Yo, when bad man ah step, we nuh bring machete

You f****t, me rise gun from St. Elizabeth

Badman full head ah shot and crack it

Hole inna head big like egg wey nuh hatch yet

Walk down pon him and slap it up, and me ah knock it

Waste out the clip and all the spare inna me pocket

Catch dem hang out like clothes inna closet

Three piece each inna head unnu ah get

Dat unu ah go get, clap it pon a budget

You hungry fi bullet, nyam it like a nugget

Unnu get, get twenty-one piece like a bucket…”

Squeeze – Masicka

Rifle buss dem belly buss yuh friend & drop inna yuh tripe
Shane flash on pon a bike brain fly gone pon a kite
Him mother a try shake him but it nuh look right
She shake him she shake him him just a puke white
Eye dem a lock dung what a good sight
P***y talk straight mek mi buss yuh windpipe (boom!)”
