When it comes to reggae or even Jamaicans, they will always express their negative feeling towards homophobia, "batty boy" is usually the term used for gays in Jamaica and reggae & dancehall artists use it just like how rappers call another rapper they dislike a faggot or them being pussy.

Anyway when the song "Boom Bye Bye" came out it was a big big hit but I doubt many knew what the song was really about, when one of my friends who was a DJ who could understand reggae artists' patois lingo told me what they song was saying I was shocked, but regardless for years it was always played apart of the classic dancehall sets; I'm just wondering did Buju Banton ever get flack for it or was it just like how the 90's had so many rap songs that did things like that that it was shrugged off as a take it or leave it situation cause the song was already a big hit?
