Stop Murder Music

[1][2][3] The campaign was mainly against Jamaican musicians, primarily dancehall and reggae artists such as Buju Banton, Bounty Killer, and the Bobo Ashanti Rastafarians Sizzla and Capleton.

Stop Murder Music is jointly run by OutRage!, the Black Gay Men's Advisory Group, and J-Flag.

The Reggae Compassionate Act was an agreement[further explanation needed] signed in 2007 by artists including Beenie Man, Capleton, and Sizzla.

[11] Despite not causing any artists to be denied entry visas, the campaign was able to get concert venues cancelled,[12] and also get iTunes to remove some tracks by Buju Banton, Elephant Man and TOK that they deemed contrary to their standards.

"[15] The UK International Development Minister Gareth Thomas argued in a speech that, "A number of artists [such as Sizzla and Buju Banton] are effectively contributing to the spread of HIV by producing reggae and rap songs actually encouraging discrimination against those who have AIDS and encouraging violence against minority groups such as men who have sex with men...Yes, we believe in free speech, but nobody in a democracy should be able to incite violence against minorities.
