26 years ago there was a hue and cry when a then young Minister of Education who managed a group of artists brought school aged students to the Wildey Gymnasium to be “feted” by none other than Mr. Edwin Yearwood, Pic of De Crop winner.

At the time this mass “party” was unheard of but clearly went on to become a staple of B/DLP politics, campaigning and our cultural and sub cultural landscape.

Fast forward 27 years to the present and we have a young Minister of Education who manages a group of artists and uses them for promotional and motivational student videos (covid, back to school, stop the bullying etc.) including the popular Mole, Peter Ram and others.

BUT, here is the rub. The attached video shows the duality of entertainment and the flip side of performance roles.

TROJAN RIDDIM MIX VIDEO



So, one day it’s go to school, learn well, sanitise and don’t trouble nobody. The next day it’s gunshots showering like storm, high grade, kush, 357’s, AR’s and coffins for informers who get shot.

All coming from the same mouths, with the same faces, in the same spaces.

All managed and seemingly endorsed by a young Minister of Education whose business interests apparently diverge from the broader national, social and values based interests when convenient.

Imagine this at a time when violence, guns, shooting and fear of serious crime continue to climb. This is what far too many of our young people glorify, rejoice in and give praise to.

As one of the same said artists said over 30 years ago…..

“Well boh, I find out doh, uh NOW realise how de yutes get so”

    “We talk about gun violence . I ask a simple question: What charges were brought against the MP who “pulled” a gun on the precincts of Parliament.
    Was there any apology when the PM intervened in the work of the police by accepting a call from a citizen?”
    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    Bulls eye! You really do have a sharp recall (or should it be ‘recoil’)!

    That should create a big hole to let the small-island hypocrisy cat out of the stinking rotten bag labelled “Two Barbadoes”.

    Glad that you have returned to that gun fight scene at the OK Palmetto Sq.; a ‘stone’ throw within the precincts of the highest court of the twin state of (im)morality.

    And guess who the NATO mouth giant pulled it on? Another mouse trying to hide behind the very dude pretending to be the hardest lawman in the land today.

    Yes William and the youngsters in the country can rightfully say…fcuk the government…they know they are being set up with hypocrisy to take the blame,,

    ,,my issue with the dudes in the video, is that they need to show more respect for grandmothers, women and girls because they have ALL THREE…IN THEIR FAMILIES..

    …but they only EXPOSED what the government has SUPPORTED, PROMOTED and ENCOURAGED FOR DECADES…while setting up the youth on the island and everything that is NEGATIVE….AND gleefully helping minority criminals rob them of opportunities and their future….for their cut…one only need to look at the Auditor General’s findings to get the WHOLE PICTURE…in movie style..

    The answer is ‘No’.

    But you can get the then Deputy Speaker to rule on the matter.

    After all, it’s one big incestuous orgy put on by the Bulldaggers&Dyke ‘lying’-down party (BDLP) in the Duopoly talk shop and all paid for from the taxpayers’ kitty.

    Is it fair to say that one of Santa Mara’s offspring might just be the godsend of a child to the then LoO now primate inter pares?

    BTW, didn’t you mention that even members of the then Red-skin Opposition made handsome contributions to the whip-round in order to bail out one of their comrades sitting in the Big Chair but who had fallen on hard times for living above his ‘small’ means?

    Didn’t one of the red contributors with ‘special’ interests in all ‘Elders’ Affairs’ make a ‘special donation’ to that same bailout fund because of close family ties with the man who Carr-away- ton of money from a geriatric?

    There is a large dose of hypocrisy at play how we deal with these kinds of matters. In the link the blogmaster posted from a 2010 blog the comments of late prime minster David Thompson are interesting to read. As you know he was a lover of dub and dancehall. Have fun trying to identify his comments.

    Music elicits emotions, it does not change minds. Those who it influences are already so minded. They may use it to psyche themselves up to do what they have already decided to do.

    We need to be outraged at whatever and whoever it is that is creating the abyss that is sucking these guys in.

    Digicel has change of heart
    By Kareem Smith
    Telecommunications giant Digicel Barbados is backing away from a hasty decision to cut ties with soca and dancehall artiste Leadpipe, in the midst of a firestorm of criticism over a recent music video promoting gun violence.
    Chairman, Ralph Bizzy Williams told Barbados TODAY that the company is now prepared to “forgive” the talented artiste and “bring him back into the fold”.
    On Wednesday morning, Digicel announced the discontinuation of its influencer relationship with Leadpipe, real name Osvaldo Reid as his “recent musical values do not align with our values”.
    “Digicel takes its responsibility as a family brand and a good corporate citizen very seriously. We do not tolerate any negative sentiment towards any member of our community and indeed do not associate ourselves with negativity in any way,” the statement declared.
    Shortly after Digicel took action, Sole Addiction named Leadpipe and Mole De Chief as its new ambassadors.
    Digicel’s announcement followed the castigation of Leadpipe and eight other artistes from Prime Minister Mia Mottley, members of her Cabinet and business leaders, for their parts in the Trojan Riddim mix that is filled with violent and obscene lyrics, promoting gang activity and gun violence.
    But the demonisation of the artistes is not sitting well with hundreds of social media users, who are blasting the ‘hypocrisy’ of persons in high places for endorsing regional and international musicians, movies and influencers portraying similar messages.
    When contacted, Williams explained that in the midst of the swiftly unfolding controversy, he was asked to make an immediate decision about Leadpipe’s relationship with the company, which, in hindsight, was “probably a mistake”.
    “I made an impromptu decision. The correct thing to do would have been to have a meeting with Leadpipe and find out what this thing is all about. Why is he doing this? Does he really believe that gun violence and so on is really the way to solve Barbados’ problems? These are the things that I should have done, but I did not,” the 78-year-old businessman admitted.
    While expressing Digicel’s willingness to “forgive” Leadpipe, he added: “But what I would like for him to do… is another video that sends the opposite message, that in Barbados, we want to live in harmony with each other, that we do not want to solve problems by guns. We want to negotiate and come to agreements with each other, rather than resort to violence and guns.”
    When contacted, Leadpipe’s manager Ingrid Holder declined comment for the second day in a row.
    Among the hundreds of people opposing Digicel’s initial stance was social media influencer Jordan English, who posted a fourminute video condemning the “hypocrisy”.
    He argued that if local artistes are to be vilified for their recent releases, an apology ought to be issued from major promoters, cinemas and other businesses, who, for years, have facilitated the infiltration of ‘badness’ into the society.
    “From the time I was a little boy, I watched the two major festivals in Barbados, Hennessy Artistry and Barbados Reggae Festival each year after year bringing headline Jamaican dancehall artistes who are powered by big sponsors like Digicel.
    “I want to know how the government of Barbados could accept that each year, we allow a dancehall artist to headline the number one festival in Barbados, but want to scrutinize the artistes like they are little boys,”
    English challenged.
    “I would like an apology from Hennessy Artistry, from Digicel, from Fas [7Star [Entertainment], for each year putting on a concert that headlines Jamaican artistes singing ‘badness’. I would like an apology from Sheraton that shows action movies portraying gun crimes and drug activity every single day to kids. I would like an apology from Slam, 95.3, 98.1, and all of these radio stations…and organisations, that contribute to the promotion of crime,” the young influencer declared.
    When asked to respond to such allegations, Williams, who introduced Digicel to the local market nearly two decades ago acknowledged that the company did not have a history of seeking to dictate the activity of artistes.
    On the contrary, he declared that the umbrella company, Williams Industries has always been keen on supporting artistic expression. He however indicated that the timing of the recent releases was poor in the midst of a recent spike in gun crime, and anxiety related to the pandemic and the volcanic ash.
    “Everybody’s nerves are on edge and it was a very bad time to come out with this music video. I can’t imagine what the fellows were thinking,” the businessman added.
    Late this evening, Leadpipe issued an apology expressing his sincerest regret to fans, followers, sponsors and the general public for the “ unintentionally harmful lyrics” during the dancehall freestyle mix.
    “ As many of you know I have always expressed my versatility as a comedian along with recording as a soca and dancehall entertainer to bring positive vibes and energy from my work. However, my choice of content on this occasion has been deemed offensive to some. As a popular entertainer, I understand my power as an influencer, and I promise to make you and Barbados proud in the future.
    “I would also like to take this opportunity to appeal to our youths and elders to stop the violence and let us continue to make Barbados a safe and enjoyable country not sometimes but all the time, “ he said.

    They were all over Rihana for her dress, videos and almost everything she did until they camevto their senses and realised that’s the nature of entertainment.
    However Rihanna has given Bim more exposure than the clowns running the Tourism Industry, who don’t know what’s a proper marketing theme .
    They also had to shut up when they realised she was mentioning Barbados at every single opportunity.
    And then this poor black woman , as soon as her wealth grew , started to donate and give more to charity and other causes than all the white corporate multi- millionaires that only give their money to certain sports and causes.
    She exposed them all by not shouting but by simply giving of her recently achieved fortune.
    Then the politicians , one in particular , would not let her turn. They got the tablets.
    They can’t talk because she has demonstrated what thousands of our young people are trying to show: Give them a leg up and we will make our nation proud.
    Imagine all these big shots around here, bragging about how they shop in Miami while local designers starve.
    Rihanna puts on an unknown woman’s design and just like magic it’s in Vogue.

    I would personally like to thank Lil Rick, Peter Ram, Mole, Lead Pipe and all the other artists who have brought this hypocrisy to a head.

    You cannot hunt with the hounds and run with the hares!

    Make up your minds!

    Are we serious about reducing crime and violence or not?

    Right now the most I have to worry about from gangstas is a stray bullet. The gang men are not looking for me or my son. They are in the drug business. They kill people in the drug business, mostly. Stay out of their way and you should be good. It’s not that hard to do really if you live in certain places.

    Perhaps politicians think the youth from depressed areas are disposable??? Collateral damage?

    Kidnapping is a different situation altogether. One need not look as far as Haiti. Trinidad will do. That is something rich and upper middle class people have to worry about.

    Armed robbery is something that affects businesses and anybody who has a little cash.

    Most of our murders are drug related at present, though. The policeman was only killed because he was coming at the robbers with a gun.

    We will never eradicate crime but provide opportunities and guidance for young men and we can lessen it.

    But we need to deal with Mr. Big too!

    Then letting lead pipe go would have been a cost savings to the company don’t u think
    The bottom line goes to public outrage and investors some of whom are part of the entertainment industry having a vested interest in protecting their Creative interest
    Digital tried to cross that line and the backlash was fast and swift

    Let me add a note to what Lawson said.

    My wife and I were very protective of our son and would monitor/restrict whose home he would visit. One home where we did not have any concerns about was a husband and wife who were both teachers.

    It is only recently, that we learned that the teachers smoked with the children. I am still angry.

    It is more complicated than listening to music or being good parents or taking the child to church. As a parent, you may be checking all the right boxes, but other checks that you are counting on, may not be working.

    Stupid Lawson,

    My son is a home body. “Out there is trouble!” His words not mine. He left home today because I sent him to pay a bill. I was surprised how quickly he returned. Went out on Tuesday to collect a deposit for a local job. Came home so quickly I was surprised.

    He has been at home every day since Covid returned to the island. All day until I kick him outside to catch some sun. Working at his business for hours on end. Uses my credit card to pay for his tools. Discusses every move with me.

    Does not need to talk to eggplants. Has a few good friends and an I phone. And we talk for hours on end.

    And he wanted a dog but I compromised with two kittens.

    They are good practice for fatherhood. I do not help. They sleep on the pillow he keeps on his chest. Wake him up regularly for food. Climb up my curtains and get into trouble. He changes their litter, grooms them daily and loves the rascals to bits.

    So…. I am sorry to disappoint you but my son is not a user nor is he a pusher of drugs. Does not smoke. Does not drink. Is not even a skirt chaser.

    Driven to succeed. Too smart to let WURA’s minorities use him. And loves me too much to cause me trouble.

    So sorry to disappoint.

    You could add whatever you want to what Stupid Lawson says. I do not keep my son tied. He LIKES staying home. Sometimes I ask HIM if he is not feeling boxed in.

    Decided on his own that he does not like alcohol. I let him taste it. Always quarrelling with his grandfather for smoking.

    In normal times he goes to the occasional party. Goes to the occasional picnic.

    But do not invite him out two consecutive days cause he en going!

    I was a good girl who did not trick her parents. No drinking, no drugs, no smoking, no sex until I was an adult.

    Good children do exist. As Vincent said a while back he is a lot like me. Right down to the strong will and the big mouth.

    Miller…imagine in the 21st century we have to deal with all of this though

    …the (criminal minorities and sellout negros) intent was to use, rob and destroy Black lives to enrich themselves and keep GENERATIONS OF YOUTH in poverty…..and now believe they can slither out of their handiwork by claiming an image of some paragon of values….although knowing what they did to paint Black people as drug dealers and gun toting gangsters, funding containers and boat loads of drugs while stealing so much from the treasury and pension fund that at least 6 or 7 parishes live BELOW THE POVERTY LINE….as they have from the 1960s.

    and were well poised to get away with it, had not social media made a debut….now we know why dried up cow was so desperate to get social media off the island, talking shite about it don’t suit Barbados, he meant, it would expose them, as it has..

    .the minorities would have kept the population in the DARK AGES for another 50 years and their lazy drug addled grands and great grands would have continued the slave society undeterred and well protected by parliament scum, while ruling roost.

    ..ah guess it has now all gone to hell in a handbasket…but just imagine the black face vote beggars supported all of this for decades…

    Very good.

    It reminded me of someone looking at a black man and saying ‘he speaks well’. We have to be careful that our words do not reflect the biases of others.

    I think you caught the blog master out of the crease.

    I mean it’s a fair question…

    “Wonder what music politicians does be listening to that does cause them to rob poor people.”

    what they need to do is stop coming with these elaborate plots and plans AGAINST THE BLACK POPULATION, the next conniving ones may be the end of them for sure ……and at last..
