Buju Banton Blast Phone Addicts Who Film Accidents Instead Of Helping

Buju Banton is not mincing his words when it comes to smartphone culture.

The “Trust” deejay was in a militant mood as he blasted smartphone addicts during his performance on the Welcome To Jamrock Reggae Cruise 2019 last week.

During his performance, Buju blasted many Jamaicans who fail to help each other in times of distress, instead opting to record pain and suffering in order to circulate on social media.

“Once upon a time inna Jamaica, if yuh pass a car accident, yuh jump outta yuh car an yuh first instinct is fi try help who inside. Now these new Jamaicans’ instinct is fi draw fi dem phone, a seh: ‘look how gar eye a drap out’. What a b*mboclaat wi come to!” Buju said.

“Nowadays everyweh mi go inna Jamaica, a suh everybaddy stay,” he said, demonstrating how phones are held for recording. “Woman and all man; right now di man dem more dan di ooman dem.”

“Di amount a man weh stap me fi picture more dan di ooman dem! Fi real. It frighten mi sometime caw mi a wanda a wha a gwaan. But anyway, bus da one yah fi mi nuh,” he declared before launching into his newest hit single “Trust.”

Ironically it seems his message was lost on the majority of the fans in attendance as they too seemed guilty of the same act, filming his every gesture.

As one fan on social media duly noted “Wow they just have their phones out like robots n not even enjoying the show,” while another added, “Nobody is watching the artist perform they are too busy videoing the show like they are the video man, this is so stupid put down your phone and enjoy the show.”
