WTF? Damn, this sucks! Hes really a great artist why in the world would someone like him do something that silly???!!! :-(((

its a setup
him neva travel to di US since 1992 cuh him get ”baned” bcuz of his so called homophobic lyrics.
but dem set him up, Buju a rasta man, him nah deal wid no coke at all. If anything, dem ppl wudda find herbs on him, nuttin else.
U zeet.

I need to hear more facts about this.

Weh fassy police wah fi romp wit di man. mi nuh think him do dis. like mesearching4ago2girl say, mi need more facts bout dis. media neva put all di info pon here for us fi read, dey only put weh dem want us fi know/think.

Blessed!!!

yow people fi knuw sey the rast , nuh guilty ok , this i wah we call defirmation of character ok , just cause we burn out the batty bwoy dem , dem a try put the gargamell behine bars , dem bwoy fih knuw seh jah naw sleep ok and dem ago get them beatn ok , leave the rast alon and move ok , the rast knuw in the cocaine trafficing

Wow I love Buju I dont believe it! Show me the footage he is too pro-struggle to be involved in drugs!

I agree with u ‘MSCPA2U’… First, i’m a fan… But he’s so Pro-Struggle in his music… Don’t believe what u see in SHOW BIZ r THE NEWZZ MEDIA…….

I can believe it. He was tryin to get money.
Theres no money in hip hop or raggae. I hope yall not dumb enough to believe that all these artist are millionaires. They are not. There are very few who are. He just got caught up.

I agree, until I see the proof, and how he was caught I DONT BELIEVE IT!!!

Who would be fool enough to try to sneak 5 keys in their suitcase at MIAMI airport (of all places).

Seems way to easy, I think its a set up, some homo in the baggage area probably set him up…lol

@Calm_Cool_Collect, you are 100% correct. People get the false sense, that because an artist is in videos driving Range Rovers etc. that they are well off, and very few are. Having said that, I don’t believe nothing until I hear the other side of the story.

OUR POLITICAL PRISONERS ARE GOING DOWN ONE BY ONE

its all a setup,your gonna see more and more famous black people,getting killed,and into trouble,the media is nothing but lies

Regardless he’s caught up now…

@NorthSTL….too pro-strugle to get caught up in drugs? Please..even though the gov’t help get the s**t over here…uh duh thats where the money at…NOT in Reggae. He was on if he had 5 Keys…you know how much money that is….and there are plenty more thats still involved in the D game. Get real.

SMH @ ALL THE FAKE YARDIES POSTING…THE CRAP DOESN’T EVEN MAKE SENSE.

SED FRUM AH TRU YARDIE, YUP!!!

HOTTESTLADY1, YOU CLEARLY DON’T KNOW YOUR HISTORY. BUJU’S MUSIC WAS BANNED FROM RADIOS IN SOME STATES BUT HE WASN’T BANNED FROM THE US.

THIS IS HOW LIES GET STARTED!!

WTF there is more money in drug dealing than entertaining on a international level? The kicker is in the article they identtify his accompliance as an “unidentified man” ? Why? Because he was the snitch, informant, federal agent that set that a*****e up. DUH! As much as I love the brethrens music and lyrics. I am hoping that it is no true and innocent until proven guilty. But one must also reconize the federal conviction statistics, over 90% convictions. When they set a lame up they lace that ass. Plus, if he was into powder then they need to put that ass under the jail. He is a Piranha, and an enemy to the community. No mercy and no pity if guilty, at sentence just think of how many families was destroyed by that poison. Parentless kids and crack babies. Karma is a biotch !

AND THAT IGNORANTLY RAISED MONKEY IS NO DAMN POLITICAL PRISONER!!!

O MI BREDREN…JAMAICA IS LOST!

SMH @ CONDONING DUMB SH!T

TIMES ARE HARD AND WE ARE WELL OFF INTO A RECESSION AND PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO GET MONEY THE BEST AND FASTEST WAY THEY KNOW HOW AND PEOPLE DO TRY TO SNEAK DRUGS FROM OTHER PLACES BUT ITS HARD NOT TO GET CAUGHT….TO BAD…..

@mackoutstack YOU RIGHT, WHETHER ITS DRUGS, CHEATING ON THERE WIVES, NOBODY GOES UNTOUCHED

HMMM.

Something just does not sound right. Something is amidst.

Buju just finished a very successful tour here in the US INSPITE of all the BATTIBWOI protesting! Suddenly he has drug charges???

Buju makes Reggae music, mostly sings about the oppression of his people and about drugs out there and things like this – it seems very out of character indeed. Until I SEE MORE and hear more evidence, I am skeptical.
ANYWAY, THAT SAID:
THE ONLY IGNORANT MONKEY ON THIS BOARD IS YOU BTCH. TAlking about who is a fake “yardie” and who is… THE FACT YOU USE THE WORD “YARDIE” TELLS ME YOU IS A LYING BTCH! YOU THE LOST BTCH. You think talking sht like that is going to help Jamaica? You part of the fuking problem with your fuking nose up your own @ss. Why yuh nuh res yurself? Yuh noh how di man mi raise? You knoh di man mah? CHuh! Dont judge others lest you be judged yourself!

yow Mental
u haffi check fi yuh facts zeen before u diss up ppl in yah so
buju neva granted no visa since 1992!!! him smoke herb an u wudda still neva si him wid no spliff on di stage, like how u si odda artists dem bun it pon stage show

done chat

i grew up listenin 2 this dude now he busted
smh

this is a big time set up by the gays of this country..y are u attacking a man for singing a song that he does not even perform anymore yet alone it being 15 yrs old…they are looking for a scape goat. u say u dont like jamaicans but yet still go to jamaica smh. whatever happen to freedom of speech….things like this really get me vile i hope justice prevails over d wicked system.

This sounds like straight bulls**t to me!!!! Set up on some level. Why would Buju need 5 kilos of coke when the man been getting paid doin music for the last 20 years??? There’s something rotten in the state of FL.

Waiting on the details… but after seeing decades of people getting caught up, I doubt this man was that simple minded in just “buying drugs” from some people he was not connected to.

The article says he refused to renouce his past views so that right there is reason enough to set him up, especially when his North American tour was successful.

get this ni99a some Visine!

WTF or should I say BOBOCLOT My friend is going to flip at this news she is the biggest buju fan Buju wilding I knew buju was wild when he deleted me from his myspace page well they will just send him back to Jamaica hopefully soon and he can join my husband who’s a reggae artist too and they can write some music together in jail.

smh im jamaican and this saddnes my buju a mi artist an di man reall a deal drugs to rass cocaine is serious yrs smh gues that song driver wasnt fi tune

Bumbo Claaat!!!! Buju weh yu go mek dem hold yu like dat’ brethen??

well,now we know jamaican artist are not pulled for to make money, specially buju,after the gay community banned all his tour in u.s and other countries.if had a chance to make my tour money selling,i would probably done it too.

I wanna see the video evidence of this allegation.

im VERY disappointed!! i’ve been a fan of buju banton for as long as i can remember! this s**t is in the way…i wish people that make good music would stay they asses outta trouble

LET US SEE THE EVIDENCE FIRST.

The faith in me shall set me free reflection
The faith in me shall set me free reflection

Behind these metal bars
To jah jah im chanting
Pray for your love divine
Im oh so sorry I am
Deeply I am hurting
The price ordained to be mine
Impossible to see the changes, that I’ve made in my life
All they see is just the boy, they left be behind
And I swear, That I can be a better man
Yes I swear, if only you could understand
The faith in me shall set me free reflection
The faith in me shall set me free reflection

Dont judge me wrong
Cause now i am stronger than I was before
I was young and unwise
Didn’t you hear my cry
Impossible to see the change
That I’ve made in my life
All they see is just the boy i left behind
Cause i swear
I can be a better man
Cause I swear if only you could understand
I swear
I can be a better man
And I swear (if only you could understand), I swear
The faith in me shall set me free relection (reflection)
(repeat line until music fades)

Rasta, king, why deal in coke man? You are BUJU BANTON and last time i checked you out you didn’t need to mess around with 5 petty keys but you never know what people have going on in their personal lives until they get caught on tape with 5 kilos. Which by the way, I need to view that before sayin he’s guilty.

dayum Buju???? WTF???

I donm’t know much of anything this n!gga has done but when he was in that old a$$ Pac song Runnin. (Before Em RIPed that song.)

BOOM BYE BYE to you Buju. You are truly a bomba…….

Mi people there is no discussion here. Buju was indeed set up by someone he works with or know real well. According reports the fed admit it. The feds pick these two people up buying the coke but buju was no where near the place buying anything.

i dont believe any of it. seems like everytime a black person is trying to do the right thing someone or something knocks them down everytime. yeah sounds like a set up to me.
