Buju Banton’s management claims that he no longer sings the violently homophobic “Boom Bye Bye.” However, he has sung this song for over 13 years. He is still making money from the song. You can download it from Amazon, but not from iTunes.
“Boom Bye Bye” says that “gays must be killed” and that gays should be shot in the head, shot with an Uzi, have acid thrown in their faces and be burned like a tire.
Buju makes no apologies for his calls to “kill gays.” He compares what he says with what churches say about homosexuality and asks “What wrong have I done when I say that homosexuality is wrong?” Video: http://tinyurl.com/awze5l (Most churches don’t openly and publicly call for killing LGBT people).
