Jamaica bans music and TV glorifying crime
By Nadeem ShadBBC News
Jamaica 's broadcasting authority has banned content that " glorifies illegal activity" - Such as drug and gun use.
The new rules cover TV and Radio - including Music - and list specific topics that are off-limits.
Scamming, drug abuse and The Illegal use of firearms cannot be " promoted" - and swearing or " near-sounding" replacements are also banned.
But the strict nature of the ban has been criticised by some artists who argue Music Is a reflection of life.
It Comes amid high levels of violent crime in Jamaica - in 2021, The Island nation had one of the highest murder rates in Latin America and The Caribbean .
But the broadcasting agency says the use of public airwaves to broadcast songs that glorify illegal activity could give " the wrong impression that criminality is an accepted feature of Jamaican culture and society".
All forms of " illegal or criminal activity" are now prohibited in an effort to help keep the airwaves " clean" it Said - and station operators are required to take immediate steps to comply.
Concern that offending content could normalise criminality among young adults and " vulnerable and impressionable" youths was also cited as a reason for The Changes .
However, some of Jamaica 's musical artists have criticised The Move .
" We can't stop the creatives (artists) from singing about what they see around them or grew around, " Said Romeich, a local Music Manager and producer in an
He went on to ask if " Jamaica the only country that has children? Because the same children listen to these same songs elsewhere".
Grammy award-winning Music Producer and singer, Stephen McGregor, who goes by The Stage name
" Yay! Crime and violence gonna magically stop now, " he wrote sarcastically, before pointing out that Young People listen to Music over The Internet more often than through a Radio .
" [In my opinion] The Move is more of a 'look we're doing something' More Than actually trying to Do Something , " Said Mr McGregor.
This is not the First Time a some Music has been banned in Jamaica . In 2009, regulators banned Music promoting sex, violence, murder or arson, when " daggering" - a type of sexually-suggestive dancing -gained in popularity.
The broadcasting commission's statement Said while there had to be regard for freedom of expression, content promoting criminality conflicted with the " tenets of responsible broadcasting".
