Guyanese government says artistes boycott doesnt bother them

Friday, May 2, 2008

Head of Guyana's Presidential Secretariat and Cabinet Secretary, Dr Roger Luncheon said at a post-Cabinet media briefing that even in Jamaica some artistes are objected to and have been subjected to severe sanctions by the law.

He was responding to a question by one reporter about whether or not the administration is concerned that as a result of the banning of dancehall artistes Mavado and Bounty Killer from performing in Guyana, that artistes on the island might be considering boycotting Guyana and thus, hampering especially the upcoming Caribbean Festival of Arts (CARIFESTA) being hosted here.

Home Affairs Minister Clement Rohee had announced the banning of the two artistes earlier in the week following Bounty Killer breaching the agreement he had with promoters not to use specific lyrics during a show held in Guyana recently. The artiste used the lyrics and this resulted in gunshots being fired at the event. Mavado was scheduled to perform at an upcoming event here.

Both artistes had been banned from performing in a number of other countries as a result of their lyrics which promote violence and homophobia.

its a difference of opinions
arite!! Im not one 2 judge leme leave dat up 2 god u see. Man have the freedom of speech. De law controlling everey ting else de olny thing we have fredom 2 is wut we tink. so if de man dem doe liek gay n like promote violence das der bizness. dat doe mean we have 2 be like Simon sayz n Jump. but on de other hand the same bible wah dem ah read dat say man 4 woman.. say love ur neighbours as ur self.. so if u choose 2 *burn out batty man* becuz u so religous u can't be taking another human life in de same breath. So wut i tryn say is dat all of dem man dat playing bad n seen is jus a bunch of hYPOCRIT!! n juss need mind der bizness n judge only der damn self. Im female n i lOve man. n das my bizness i doe mindin nobody elses own! so yeah wid de banning ting.. sum government juss ass so becuz ah man sing bout a gun he make ppl shoot it? stupes man! i VEX

This world is becoming alot like Sodom and Gomorrah GOD will not stand for this type of behavior. It happened once and it will happen again. Stand strong CARRIBEAN what's right is right and what's wrong is wrong and should not be forced upon anyone.

dem dont listen music
i am a big fan of movado ,i think minister roshee [rohee]does not know what he has done to music fans throughout guyana by banning movado and bounty killa from performing in g/t and by banning the music from our one and only radio station 98.1 fm .ithink he wants to give battyman prags and rights in g/t.dem fi dead.

The really need to be fair. if they are going to ban, Bounty Killer and Mavado, they should ban, all the murder shoot-em up movies and video games, as well as MTV which promotes sex, and filth, and the internet.
