Being gay is not a character flaw, but in Jamaica it's a death sentence to come out and say you are gay because Jamaicans are thought to be homophobic. This stems from Christianity other religious teachings including Rastafarian, these teachings give you permission to be discriminative to other people and it's okay. This is pure hypocrisy, in Jamaica the murder rages high gun violence is high, murder against women is high, unemployment is high and what do we focus on whether somebody is sleeping with another person of the same sex. Dancehall or the music culture is not the reason why someone is gay, let's not sugarcoat it, people of different sexual preferences are part of the human race. if you are not gay you have nothing to worry about. Free your mind and the rest will follow. Free yourself from mental slavery people.🖤💚💛one luv
The biggest problem for Rasta, teaching love and unity, but then hating people for things they can't control. If you want love and unity, you must act with love in unity. You can't have both. Leave them alone.
What is uncontrol ? Didn’t you not heard the girl said she switch due to the abuse (nonsense ) but that’s what caused her to go women . So when the women start abuse her she will tell you soon she with dog and cat and so the retarded life continue until them have enough money to go live their straight life and leave the critics like you to suffer
Most of these artists are wearing designer clothes these same designers are GAY as daylight yet the same artists not bashing the designers DOUBLE STANDARDS ☮️
If there is such things a Gaye Clothes then I might agree! The Majority of people in this world aren't Gayle so who are they making clothes to sell to?
This is a huge publicity move in lila ike behalf. She might get a little fight in Jamaica, but in America and elsewhere in the west she is now going to be massive. Especially with people like the Me Too culture types. She soon won't need Jamaica anymore after the big time offers she will get from Hollywood, trust me. Anyway Jamaica is so Hypocritical. Everyone knows most church pastors are Gay over there, both Male and female also. And I would say that it's probably safe to assume that 50 percent of male dancehall artists are bisexual, no doubt.

As a South African i have always felt that many of the male Dancehall artists are probably gay considering how much dancing there is in the industry by male artists in cornrows and tight pants.

In this current time when these artist come out they gain support especially internally from people and groups that don't even know them or them music. The way man and woman dress in dancehall now its easy to assume at least half of them gay anyway...
This is what happens when a culture just stand for anything. Allowing all the slackness and immorality in to the music and culture and glorifying it. Loving American way of life instead Jamaican...it goes on and on. Jamaica's moral compass has been broken for awhile now. Lord, can we focus on REAL issues that are effecting the country. COVID, unemployment, poverty, murder, rape, etc.
Lila is the most truthful reggae artist in Jamaica. She stepped out of the closet bold while these bleach face and tight pants man talk about batty-man fe dead!
Jamaica has no many churches per capita, that we start assuming it's s country with the highest moral values. Listen to our music and all one hears is suck this and suck that.

To make a comment, when artist sings and sings from the heart, good music is good music, when a artist just sings as an intertainer good music is good music, so when an artist sings from his or her personnel life style good music is still good music, what makes the difference is how the "public" see if, how the fans feel about, and how the powers that be view it, and want to promote or scrap it, and how it is put across to the public, (the media). That's the tool that break you or make you. To all the artist out there, keep making good music, wheather gay or not.

While Lila Ike is all about real Reggae music. Big Tunes! Take Batty Rider Shorts! This is good and rebellious and socially conscious music. So what does her personal sexual orientation does have to do with it? Nothing! Just nothing! Lila Ike keeps being a great musician! Go listen good reggae music! Always remember the homophobia in Jamaica originally comes from christian colonisation! Get rid of that! Freedom and equal rights for all people! Reggae and Rasta always had good morals - homophobia is none of them. We don't need that! The main thing we need is more good reggae music. It's been way too less in the past few years.
So sad. The culture/ the world/life is so different. May God bless us all. I will never fold. Never imagined this life style will be soooooo exposed.. "mi Can't believe Mi eyes" so sad.... To each its own but never would have imagined that my reggae/Jamaican culture would turn this way so openly...

These new artists will be the revised faces of reggae and dance hall specifically on the international scene..it is all part of the agenda to destroy the previous positive messages from reggae music that are there to enlighten and increase peoples awareness of life and allow them to become aligned with their higher self...Artists of today are not concerned with trying to change the world to make it a better place through their music they are only concerned with the monetary gain that is available.. so they will sing anything and behave in any way that they feel will fast track them to success...Once you hear young artists calling older conscious artists who have followed on and built on the legacy that was put in place dinosaurs you can start to see the demise of the Jamaican music industry...Now it is more important to have a large social media following than to have good uplifting music circulating on the road because you have to feed the beast first before you can encounter any element of success.
This is, “On Stage .. with Winford Williams” .. 😁 today’s marks the beginning of dancehalls official decline - what comes from here will be the new world - where anything goes - dancehall may become a circus where they get to change the face of the music. Be afraid.
Also peace brothers. I say the same thing about women who come out and speak on being assaulted or in pain - after one woman gets slaughtered saying what happened to them. Only them so many others come - it shows me is that there are very very few people who are strong and can be honest only until someone else does it. This is why we wont get liberated from anything collectively because so many are not willing to change or stand for something firmly.
There are people who aspire to a standard of not offending anyone and those people are doomed to failure. You would have to take every position to please everyone, and ultimately everyone will condemn you for being someone without a position of your own or for having multiple positions on the same issues. For to speak the truth, you must offend.
People lke to say to each his own as long as in naah affect them but it is affecting everybody..people r getting cancel for talking how they feel you can’t watch nothing on tv without it popping up our children future is all at risk..imagine me looking at a female n addressing that person as her only for them to say am offending them because she is not a her but a he.
I am so happy that the Most High and Jesus Christ called me out of that world 17 years ago. I was a radio dj and sound system Selecta who was addicted to dancehall and reggae music. I was at dance in DC with Mighty Crown and Steelie Bashment December 26, 2003 when I heard the Holy Spirit spoke to me and I walked out and never looked back. #thankyouJESUS
If Lila ike wasn't representing Rasta maybe it wouldn't be a big deal but we meditate Capleton "sodom & gommorrah " which graphically defines the boundaries to anyone who is not clear.
One thing though - if black culture wants more equality and acceptance - how does this same culture want to only have equality for their culture and no others - this is uneducated hypocrisy - if I don’t have any interaction with a sub culture, don’t pay their bills, don’t have to be around them then why take an aggressive dislike to someone you don’t even know? How is this godly, humanly?
Just as how the LGBT+ community use their influence and money to marginalize Reggae & Dancehall artists, why can't we in the "straight" community use our influence and money to create and maintain the monetization of these same artists. I blame the "straight" community for not helping to maintain the income streams of these artists.
All I’m hearing is, you guys giving the LG&B crews more ratings and straight ppl.... 70 percent fi The letters crew & 30 percent for straight ppl.... because of don’t wanna get in trouble. FD..

Chin.... pan dah 'given platform talk deh.. check dis “Surely oppression maketh a wise man mad; and a gift destroyeth the heart.” King James Version (KJV)
Rastas, just like most other people, are trying to re-define the Reggae as Rasta Music. Rasta Music is Reggae, but Reggae is not only Rast Music. You all are romanticising Reggae. Reggae grew organically and represented every views in the human spectrum and not only struggle, Rasta or even Jamaican. I am 64 years old and saw Reggae grew into its own in my home country, but also saw it become an international music genre. All you people are trying to do is to keep some people and views that you do not like out of Reggae, which is a wasted effort anyway.
I knew Lila was heading in that direction, it doesn't surprise me at all. However, the entertainment world is dominated by this lifestyle, so her coming out will not damage her international popularity it will increase it. Love the artist, one of the wickedest ting to come outa JA ever.
I'm waiting on the commentary and the discussion about all the gun men who killing people in Jamaica. I would love to hear those names of those people I would love Rasta to shame them man deh that's out deh a commit all kinds of crime. that's the issue I want here Rasta talk about. if you not talking about how we can reduce crime, the instability of our currency, the joke penal system, the targeting and murdering of returning residents. I don't give a fuck about two consenting adults who happen to do the genre of reggae music. I don't understand the obsession with gay people. make it make sense to me. the greatest reggae artiste of all times says "Everyman have a right to decide his own destiny and in his judgement there shall be no partiality" so if there is a god then he will deal with man personal choice or lifestyle..... what we need is to solve crime and poverty.
@@Teflong2013 many of them. But I really careless who is and who isn't. I have clients Str8 and of the LGBT community. I treat people as human not based off who they lay down with.

@7:35 I NEVER thought we'd get here, ever.... we were always ANTI- GAY so I always thought the culture's attitude toward them would never change.... was I ever wrong.....
The sad things about most of these comments is that no one is highlighting the fact that she says she was brutalised by men ( raped and broken). Before wondering who is naming out who and pronoucing judgement on her what about try and overstrand her situation and what brought her to this point. The problem isn't homosexuality.. The problem is broken men and women relationships, fathers who abandon their children and leave them vulnerable to attack (physical, mental, emotional and sexual) from evil men. Women are also too blame when they as mothers either stand by and let the abuse happen or also abuse their children. We need solutions. We must get to the root. Otherwise live and let live and show the world your shining example of a wonderful man and woman relationship.
Irrespective of all the comments made so far,the persons who are involved have no excuse. This type of behavior is against the natural cycle of life and is unacceptable in our culture. Nuclear family wi seh

These new artists will be the revised faces of reggae and dance hall specifically on the international scene..it is all part of the agenda to destroy the previous positive messages from reggae music that are there to enlighten and increase peoples awareness of life and allow them to become aligned with their
higher self...Artists of today are not concerned with trying to change the world to make it a better place
through their music they are only concerned with the monetary gain that is available.. so they will sing anything and behave in any way that they feel will fast track them to success...Once you hear young artists
calling older conscious artists who have followed on and built on the legacy that was put in place dinosaurs
you can start to see the demise of the Jamaican music industry...Now it is more important to have a large
social media following than to have good uplifting music circulating on the road because you have to feed the beast first before you can encounter any element of success.

FACTS !
what if you find out a certain Entertainer is a raper and him raper a nine-year-old girl will you separate him from the music?
This is, “On Stage .. with Winford Williams” .. 😁 today’s marks the beginning of dancehalls official decline - what comes from here will be the new world - where anything goes - dancehall may become a circus where they get to change the face of the music. Be afraid.
Winford a BIG snapper and all the so called homophobic so called ppl love run up there o meet and greet he/she. Kmft
@@talk_truth9728 exactly
Huge hypocrisy but that’s Jamaican culture all round.
Wade Williams.....🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤭🤭😁😆🤣🤣🤣🤣👍🏾👍🏾
@@talk_truth9728 i thought that guy WW was gay from first time i see him speak and move , very camp
Been too much sexually & violent
Also peace brothers. I say the same thing about women who come out and speak on being assaulted or in pain - after one woman gets slaughtered saying what happened to them. Only them so many others come - it shows me is that there are very very few people who are strong and can be honest only until someone else does it. This is why we wont get liberated from anything collectively because so many are not willing to change or stand for something firmly.
There are people who aspire to a standard of not offending anyone and those people are doomed to failure. You would have to take every position to please everyone, and ultimately everyone will condemn you for being someone without a position of your own or for having multiple positions on the same issues. For to speak the truth, you must offend.
Bob Marley: Man to man is so unjust children you don't know who to trust
That just isn’t what that quote is on about
People lke to say to each his own as long as in naah affect them but it is affecting everybody..people r getting cancel for talking how they feel you can’t watch nothing on tv without it popping up our children future is all at risk..imagine me looking at a female n addressing that person as her only for them to say am offending them because she is not a her but a he.
Dem dutty gal dea Fi move..
I am so happy that the Most High and Jesus Christ called me out of that world 17 years ago. I was a radio dj and sound system Selecta who was addicted to dancehall and reggae music. I was at dance in DC with Mighty Crown and Steelie Bashment December 26, 2003 when I heard the Holy Spirit spoke to me and I walked out and never looked back. #thankyouJESUS

If Lila ike wasn't representing Rasta maybe it wouldn't be a big deal but we meditate Capleton "sodom & gommorrah " which graphically defines the boundaries to anyone who is not clear.
How does she represent Rasta?
@jahmallajaima so why are rasta so vex that they are gay ?
I seen it coming awhile Rasta Jahknow..what a sad day I wonder what these people think about the most high really.judgement is upon humanity
One thing though - if black culture wants more equality and acceptance - how does this same culture want to only have equality for their culture and no others - this is uneducated hypocrisy - if I don’t have any interaction with a sub culture, don’t pay their bills, don’t have to be around them then why take an aggressive dislike to someone you don’t even know? How is this godly, humanly?
Just as how the LGBT+ community use their influence and money to marginalize Reggae & Dancehall artists, why can't we in the "straight" community use our influence and money to create and maintain the monetization of these same artists. I blame the "straight" community for not helping to maintain the income streams of these artists.
BS. It is not the responsibility of the “straight” community to uphold those coming out as g@y now. No sah!
True that
Facts
All I’m hearing is, you guys giving the LG&B crews more ratings and straight ppl.... 70 percent fi The letters crew & 30 percent for straight ppl.... because of don’t wanna get in trouble.
FD..
It was the coming out that killed Diana musical hights.
Those sea creatures need to stop mashing up di good music that Bob Marley dem build
Koffee next...?
I wasn't surprised about Jada kingdom
Anything that claims to be revolutionary cannot maintain a conservative mindset.
Bull!!
True
I dunno how people never see this from day. Shensea the koffee gyal weh look tuff.. spice dancer dem, plus jah cure, the chronixx bwoy, alkaline, etc… Even vybz kartel carry dem vybz
Leave Alkaline name out of yuh shit up mouth kmft
Nobody had to tell me that I been knew use your eyes to see and so is coffee but I still like the music and the positive message they sing about
Don't condone it. But to each their own. One thing everyone always forgets is that no one can stand in your place on judgment day and neither can you stand in anyone's else's.
Koffee next
Chin.... pan dah 'given platform talk deh.. check dis
“Surely oppression maketh a wise man mad; and a gift destroyeth the heart.”
King James Version (KJV)
Rastas, just like most other people, are trying to re-define the Reggae as Rasta Music. Rasta Music is Reggae, but Reggae is not only Rast Music. You all are romanticising Reggae. Reggae grew organically and represented every views in the human spectrum and not only struggle, Rasta or even Jamaican. I am 64 years old and saw Reggae grew into its own in my home country, but also saw it become an international music genre. All you people are trying to do is to keep some people and views that you do not like out of Reggae, which is a wasted effort anyway.
This is the one.
The world inna suh suh corruption.... It red out deh!
When dem ban and boycott all Reggae Artist weh Bun dem out pon record. It start from dem time deh...Dem Bow
No one is happy with themselves .. everyone is running
I knew Lila was heading in that direction, it doesn't surprise me at all. However, the entertainment world is dominated by this lifestyle, so her coming out will not damage her international popularity it will increase it. Love the artist, one of the wickedest ting to come outa JA ever.
The conspiracy and agenda is real.
I'm done with these two artists. More needs to come out so I can stop listening to them too.
To each their own, an entire world exists outside of Jamaica...ironically watch how the profiles of certain artists explode after they come out
Facts!!!!
Yep deeper than the music .
I'm waiting on the commentary and the discussion about all the gun men who killing people in Jamaica. I would love to hear those names of those people I would love Rasta to shame them man deh that's out deh a commit all kinds of crime. that's the issue I want here Rasta talk about. if you not talking about how we can reduce crime, the instability of our currency, the joke penal system, the targeting and murdering of returning residents. I don't give a fuck about two consenting adults who happen to do the genre of reggae music. I don't understand the obsession with gay people. make it make sense to me. the greatest reggae artiste of all times says "Everyman have a right to decide his own destiny and in his judgement there shall be no partiality" so if there is a god then he will deal with man personal choice or lifestyle..... what we need is to solve crime and poverty.
If u separate the music from the culture, y is it that they muted R.Kelly????
This is a dead conversation! Long time nuff of these Jamaican artist’s are 🐟.
Straight
Yep! Bounty one big under cover. When ppl call everyone a fish, they are playing mind games to remove heat off of their self.
@@talk_truth9728 I don’t know about him but Elephant man is kinda questionable
@@Teflong2013 many of them. But I really careless who is and who isn't. I have clients Str8 and of the LGBT community. I treat people as human not based off who they lay down with.
They are still freedom fighters
The messenger and the message doesn't have to add up that is why it's called art. Chin do remember say nuff man write song fi female artiste as well
Idiot meds that 🤣🤣🤣
@@daddyteddy85 by that logic Quentin Tarantino (movie director for Desperado, Django) should be the biggest gun man in the world
No person will say I'm gay and hasn't carried out the act.
Let Jamaica open the flood gates and uno will see something different.
Andru heading there with that flag at the embassy.
Shabada happy yf and will of New Kingston.
Fyah pan dem with no mercy!!
So sad that people have to explain themselves...straight people dont say....'Hi my name is ..... and I'm hertrosexual'. I am personally not in it but each to their own.
Well the music comes from a culture and in that culture the ppl don’t support that kind of lifestyle
It’s bigger than the culture majority of us live or was influence by the biblical Bible and the old teachment of the Old Testament so in that case u can’t blame people for going against against a certain lifestyle
@@gevento1 nah,I wouldn’t say that,we black ppl over here,come from a continent call africa,when they brought us here,we had our culture and our culture never promoted homosexuality.check in africa today,there is no tribe that practices homosexuality.homosexuality is a thing that came from European culture,check the history
Cah nobody nuh care! Dem put it pon demself fi “come out” cuh ah di in Ting now. Fan dem nuh care. Juss music fi mek.
@@justjeje1004 man cut your fuckery,homosexuality never existed in africa before Europeans introduced it and right now they are trying to force african countries to accept it
Dancehall is trash right now..mi done with it!
@7:35 I NEVER thought we'd get here, ever.... we were always ANTI- GAY so I always thought the culture's attitude toward them would never change.... was I ever wrong.....
it will never be accepted in dancehall and reggae their music career is dead
No matter what we do or say or how much money we have in life anything that is not of JEHOVÁ is not worth our soul period💯
Gay all they want..just don’t make it synonymous with Reggae…
The sad things about most of these comments is that no one is highlighting the fact that she says she was brutalised by men ( raped and broken). Before wondering who is naming out who and pronoucing judgement on her what about try and overstrand her situation and what brought her to this point. The problem isn't homosexuality.. The problem is broken men and women relationships, fathers who abandon their children and leave them vulnerable to attack (physical, mental, emotional and sexual) from evil men. Women are also too blame when they as mothers either stand by and let the abuse happen or also abuse their children. We need solutions. We must get to the root. Otherwise live and let live and show the world your shining example of a wonderful man and woman relationship.
Irrespective of all the comments made so far,the persons who are involved have no excuse. This type of behavior is against the natural cycle of life and is unacceptable in our culture. Nuclear family wi seh
Actually it was said rape by man and woman I think the woman is JAH 9 since she been caught with a strap on fucking another woman queen ifrica caught them
@@judah7608Things are getting very interesting here when JAH 9 is mentioned so who dem tink dem a fool?The KING a go punish dem in misrepresenting him and dem done see that the KING and Queen crown same time .They are giving strength to the beast and deceiving the younger youths ,better turn from the folly before it's too late
@@judah7608 she never said woman.she said her mother mad grandmother also abused her but she Sis not clarify whether that was emotional, psychological, sexual. Or physical abuse. As for. Jah 9..Queen Ifrica has not verified that (1) she caught Jah 9 and (2) who it was with.
That's no excuse sir..if you were raped by a woman..you're telling me you would no longer have an interest in females?
Bless bless chin and crew 🙏, me just feel what people do in them bedroom fe stay in dem bedroom
BUT IT DONT THO AND THATS THE PROBLEM
