KINGSTON, Jamaica — Dancehall artiste Caboowie is expressing concern about the frequent incidents of violence among school children.

“You see how the children are fighting and misbehaving themselves in the schools and on the streets? Too much negative music is influencing them. They need positive messages and songs that can inspire them,” he decried in an interview with Observer Online recently.

“Too much negativity has influenced these children overtime. It’s time that we call a spade a spade. They need positive messages to inspire them. And as an artiste, I am using my platform and to ensure that I play my part in trying to inspire these young minds with music that uplifts and makes them happy,” Caboowie continued.
