Power 105 pulls Reggae Carifest sponsorship

Hip-hop radio station Power 105 withdrew its sponsorship of Saturday’s Reggae Carifest because two artists on the bill have used anti-gay language in their songs.
The two dancehall reggae artists, Buju Banton and Bounty Killer, have both drawn fire for their lyrics over the years. Banton’s song “Boom Bye Bye” advocates burning and shooting gay men; Bounty Killer’s song “Another Level” refers to drowning them.
