Beenie Man runs in To Defend Vybz "colouring book" Kartel

Early nineties King of the Dancehall Beenie Man who recently was very upset about Vybz Kartel's song "dancehall hero" to the point that he made a counteraction ...and was the talk for at least 48 hours... even recently Beenie Man was disgusted at the fact that Tads Records (which apparently has some affiliation with Vybz Kartel through Corey Todd) went behind his back and bought the rights of some of his music from local producers and included those tracks in a compilation for sale on the digital market...
Jamaicandancehallmusic.com understands that despite all of this Beenie is showing some support for Vybz Kartel after kartels music was banned by radio disc jock Dubb Master Chris of New York Radio station and host of program Irie Jam Radio. According to media reports Beenie was quoted as saying ...."Dancehall is dancehall, when it comes to hardcore dancehall, I don’t support any ban of dancehall music. If Kartel is sending a bleaching message, then he can understand why a man would not play it because we love our black skin, and black is beauty, but for the disc jock to say that he’s not playing dancehall music because Kartel is advocating bleaching is going a bit too far ... not all (of) Kartel songs are about bleaching,"
