egendary Reggae singer Barrington Levy is speaking
out against the increase in hardcore sexual content in the dancehall music
today. Entertainers such Ricky Carty, Demarco, Alkaline, and J Amsterdam
have been pushing the limits with eyebrow-raising materials and videos.
Barrington Levy says he is tired of the X-rated nature that the genre has
taken on and thinks it has damaged its credibility.
In an interview published
in the Jamaica Observer on Tuesday,
Levy said, "I see where the music business is taking a turn for the worst.
It's going in a direction where we are losing it."
"These people have
no morals anymore. Are we going to do anything for money? I never came into the
music business just to sell records. I thought I would just sing for the love
of it."
Meanwhile, Levy is set to release a new acoustic album with
variations of his biggest hits. He is currently promoting his new hit single, Rosie.
Do you think Dancehall music is
getting raunchier and more hardcore?
