*Reaction to Buju Banton's Verdict*

A number of radio station in Barbados and all over the world are showing solidarity to Buju and playing his music.The whole Reggae and Dancehall communities , Fans and Industry, are  still in shock! Social  network  sites, Facebook & Twitter on top of the list, have been buzzing non - stop on  how 
verdict is unfair and sour and how everyone feel for him!
Wayne Wonder, a famous artist and also Buju's close friend, wrote on his facebook : " Lets all keep the prayers going for Mark,we all have to stay strong and stand by him!". Was just last week, a day before his trial re-started, that Buju won the Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album,"Before The Dawn", and many saw that as a sign of good luck for the upcomig trial for an artist that is been already plagued by tour & annullments when he was supporting his previous release " Rasta Got Soul". Buju always knew it's not an easy road,but still...there was a lot of hope and prayers andnow a lot of disappointment is mounting and everybody can't wait for his lawyer to appeal.
OPTIMISTIC SOUL! Free Buju! Jah Army Stand Up!


Just Added! Ragashanti Reaction!

About that we need to stay all positive and send positive thoughts  and hope and prays out for Buju tomorrow, so for him to come out innocent and totally clean from those charges.

There's  also the need to Give Thanx to people like Ragga Ragga Stephen Marley, A REAL FREEDOM FIGHTER,  the one that made possible for Buju  to be on house arrests and the one that took it on himself to get his bredda Buju out on bail.
