Buju Banton Concert Cancelled In The UK

Jamaican singer Buju Banton was really looking forward to playing a concert in Brighton’s gay district, but unfortunately the gays in the district were less excited about having him, considering that his hit song “Boom, Bye Bye” calls for shooting “batty boys” in the head.

In general we don’t approve of censorship, but following all the homophobic violence this Pride month, perhaps it’s not the best time to have some lunatic telling his fans to murder gays, considering that sentiment seems to be in the air already.
