He is soiling the nottingham Caribbean carnival right now & will be at Isis night club in Lenton until 5am tonight
Bizarelly he came to be famous doing covers of chase them crazy baldheads by Bob Marley. If he doesnt mean it he should make donations to human rights organisations like Outrage or be arrested. Before anyone moans, anarchists& internationals arrested fascists before,after & during world war 2 from spain to Germany, way before Soviets or the US government got involved.
Shame on Nottingham Carnival & the carnival community organisers, this is a human rights issue, incitement to murder any social group or group of people is wrong.

its good to hear that Beenie man has renounced it, well done to hime for being a real man.
My apologies on a postcard for being imperfect, goes to show that you cant even rely on more than 5 sources sometimes.
I called this after hearing there were calls for his performance to be axed on the bbc, I even rang them up to double check, but they were abit vague.
They didnt mention the deal you mention or that he was playing at Isis.
