Anti-gay reggae takes another hit today.

Hearing some hate among Elephant Man and T.K.O's lyrics, the German government may put their albums on its Index of Harmful Materials. Though not a ban, the move would "limit" the artists' marketing range. Via Deutsche Welle:

The index includes items such as media which glorify war and violence and are intended to induce hate.

Volker Beck, the leader of the Green Party parliamentary group, called on large Internet music sellers to already begin removing the CDs in question from their sales inventory.

"Those in Jamaica who invoke hatred should not earn money with their music in Germany," he said on Thursday in Berlin.
