Don’t Curse: Drake nearly got arrested in Jamaica for badman language?

Drake was warned, watch your mouth when you hit the stage at Brit Jam! But he didn’t heed his friend Mavado’s warning and narrowly avoided a criminal charge with least street-cred upside, lol.
During a recent performance at Fantasy Island for the weeklong BritJam festival, Mavado brought on his friend Drake for a special guest appearance. Drake is currently an artist-in-residence at Jamaica’s luxury resort, GeeJam, where everyone from Gwen Stefani to Amy Winehouse have combined retreat and recording. But even though he was told to keep the language clean, Drake must have gotten caught up in the moment, when he said something like “Everywhere me go, me seh Jamaica to the blood clot world.”
“Blood clot” being the definition of “indecent language” in Montego Bay’s local rule book.
Now in the past, MoBay authorities have charged high profile cuss-offenders like Snoop, Ja Rule, and even Jamaican acts like Beenie Man and Sean Paul. But according to Brit Jam insiders, Drake’s own guards grabbed him off the stage and pulled him away, so even though police were there, he avoided getting arrested.

After the jump
Drake’s surprise performance with Mavado at BritJam in Jamaica gets cut short for profanity….
The moral of this story is….when in Montego Bay…..heed Heavy D, Kool G Rap, Grand Puba, CL Smooth, Big Daddy Kane, Pete Rock, Q-tip,

I don’t know patois but the only time I’d put name “Jamaica” and word “bloodclat” in the same sentence while in Jamaica, is if I had 24 hour to live and didn’t give a fuck!

I’ve seen a doc on the worst prisons in the world & Jamaica was on the list for having some horrible ones there. You have to remember that for all the beauty & wonder of that country it is still basically a third world entity. No Bueno!
