I applaud Ms Fae Ellington for her commentary re: the depraved lyrics on the Hill and Gully Riddim. The lyrics are atrocious, disgusting and downright vulgar.

I was told after making a social media post about the same issue, that I should accept that such lyrics represented the evolution of Jamaican music, I replied to the person, a veteran of festival songs in Jamaica, that there was a huge difference between evolution of the music, nastiness, and vulgarity that has somehow become acceptable as our culture.

Thanks to Ms Ellington, veteran of Jamaica's culture and all things Jamaican, for calling out the nastiness and vulgarity that has tainted a song which has been a part of Jamaica's heritage and culture, at least she had the decency as someone with values and morals to speak up.
