Controversial singer Buju Banton is greeted in San Francisco

Buju Banton hates gays and San Francisco is full of them........who's the nut, him for going there or them for inviting him?

There were a handful of protesters and five cop cars waiting to greet Banton before he took the stage but perhaps it was the reggae star's meeting with Dufty that offered the highlight of the evening. source: http://www.nbcbayarea.com/around-town/e ... 08007.html

I think it's a start on both sides.
Wonder how the Jamaican atists feel about Buju meeting the gay activist :scratchheadblue:

I dunno, I've been to San Francisco before and it's one of the most gay friendly places in the US, it's not a place for gay haters to visit. IMO, it would be like the KKK visiting Jamaica.........not the best idea in the world.

Petrelis described the meeting as "very civil and productive,": although the suggestions offered to Banton for repairing relations with the GLBT community--such as donating money to GLBT Jamaican group JFLAG, or performing a song about gays with a positive message--were turned down. source http://www.edgeboston.com/index.php?ch= ... =&id=97697


Lol, Jesse Jackson must be teaching the GLBT community how to strong arm people.

This is the song that stirred the the brown stuff that floats in the toilet:




Lyrics for Boom Bye Bye:

World is in trouble
Anytime Buju Banton come
Batty bwoy get up an run
At gunshot me head back
Hear I tell him now crew

(Its like) Boom bye bye
Inna batty bwoy head
Rude bwoy no promote no nasty man
Dem haffi dead
Boom bye bye
Inna batty bwoy head
Rude bwoy no promote no nasty man
Dem haffi dead

(Two man) Hitch up on an rub up on
An lay down inna bed
Hug up on another
Anna feel up leg
Send fi di matic an
Di Uzi instead
Shoot dem no come if we shot dem--
Don't want Jackie
Give dem Paul instead
Dem don't want di sweetness
Between di leg
Gal bend down backway
An accept di peg
An if it really hot
You know she still naw gon fled
A some man
Still don't want di
Panty raid
Pure batty business dem love

(Me say) Boom bye bye
Inna batty bwoy head
Rude bwoy no promote the nasty man
Dem haffi dead
Boom bye bye
Inna batty bwoy head
Rude bwoy no promote no nasty man
Dem haffi dead

(Woman is di) Greatest thing
God ever put pon di land
Buju lovin dem from head
Down to foot bottom
But some man a turn around
Where dem get that from
Peter is not for Janet

Where the bobocloth

(Come fi) ((Straighten yuh talk?))

(Boom boom boom) Boom bye bye
Inna batty bwoy head
Rude bwoy no promote the nasty man

(Caw me say) Dis is not an bargain (Me say)
Dis is not a deal
Guy come near we
Then his skin must peel
Burn him up bad like an old tire wheel
gwaan buju banton yuh tough

(Me say) Boom bye bye
Inna batty bwoy head
Rude bwoy no promote the batty man
Dem haffi dead
Boom bye bye

(Two man) A hug up on an kiss up on
An lay down inna bed
Hug up on another

Shoot di batty boy come if we shot dem--
Dem don't want Jackie

Don't want di poom poom
Between Patsy leg
All dem want

Inna batty bwoy head
Rude bwoy no promote no nasty man

Boom bye bye
Inna batty bwoy head
Rude bwoy no promote no nasty man

Caw woman is the prettiest thing
God ever put pon di land
Put pon di land (Pu-pu-put pon di land)
But some man a turn around
