im not for a minute endorsing or even excusing homophobia in dancehall (although what dyou expect - jamaican culture as a whole isnt too accomodating to gays) but it would be nice just for once to see some articles on dancehall that dont go for the same old jugular over and over again. i know a lot of people are tired of the slackness, homophobia, etc etc (prob the same way ppl are tired of the same old money, cash hoes angle in hip hop for example) but there is and must be more to dancehall than that.
