Vybz new look…
Vybz Kartel addresses skin bleaching controversy with Hot97 morning show (Cipha/Rosenberg/K.Foxx)
The color changing Dancehall singer dialed into the Hot97 this morning to shed some more light on his recent transformation. (via RosenbergRadio)
Over the weekened, Vybz hit VIBE with this statement:
“I’m my own man, and as such I do my own thing. When black women stop straightening their hair and wearing wigs and weaves, when white women stop getting lip and butt injections and implants, when bald men stop getting hair transplants, and when people stop getting nose jobs and cosmetic surgery then I’ll stop using the ‘cakesoap’ and we’ll all live naturally ever after. Until then F**k you all.”

Wow. Not sure if a weave or even collagen are on the same level as skin lightening but I guess appearance is very important to most of us. The guy looks creepy though! *shivers*
January 24th, 2011 at 3:47 pm
lost so much respect for kartel over this bleaching stupidity.
January 24th, 2011 at 4:05 pm
Kartel……yuh is an intelligent yute. Mi neva know why yuh a sound like suck a fuckin eediot pon dis interview. Man have pure lyrics & hit records inna yard and di world. But him cyaan be taken serious cause him look like Casper an large up dis bleachin ting. Big up Busy Signal, Aidonia, Mavado, Konshens, Bugle, I-Octane, Tifa, & all of di other dancehall artist. Artist with talent and no nonsense with it. Kartel is a big man inna di business, but him a lead di yutes dem astray…….disappointed
January 24th, 2011 at 4:07 pm
lol i like the way he put it
January 24th, 2011 at 4:11 pm
i gotta say that he does have a point……………….But he still look stupid as shit. So now he’s a dumb motherfucker not for having a black complex, but for failing at improving his looks.
January 24th, 2011 at 4:28 pm
He has a strong point, but that is still not a valid reason. two wrongs don’t make a right
January 24th, 2011 at 4:40 pm
self hate is strong in the black community. its been there since jim crow.
January 24th, 2011 at 5:08 pm
BOOM lol there you have it
January 24th, 2011 at 5:13 pm
vybz kartel is the greatest dancehall artist ever, its about the music not what he looks like…And as far as the music he’s the best… GAZA OHH! AWOH!!!
January 24th, 2011 at 5:18 pm
when you have to liken something you’re doing to cosmetic surgery and wig-wearing in order to justify you might want to just keep your mouth shut or just cut to the chase and say “i’m insecure about how i look”.
January 24th, 2011 at 5:39 pm
What about spray tanning?
January 24th, 2011 at 7:03 pm
hahahahaha @ miss info “shead some more light”
and a double hahahaha hahahaha @ Vybz “cakesoap”
January 24th, 2011 at 8:05 pm
There are a million tracks and verses where Reggae Artists have mentioned this shit called
“Bleachin’ Cream”
but i never seen it applied

This is some ol’ Witness Protection
UnderCover Brother type of shit
this is some ol’ disowned by family shit like my mother would slap da shit out of me from the otherside of the world wit all her might type
shit
but it actually brought to mind the all time
KING OF POP MICHEAL JACKSON

January 24th, 2011 at 9:13 pm

January 25th, 2011 at 12:39 am
omg a humanoid!!!
January 25th, 2011 at 9:02 am
Ninjaman ain’t never had to bleach his skin and he’s the original front-teeth gun-pon-teeth don gorgon
January 25th, 2011 at 4:00 pm
kartel looks like he has threemany diseases in those pics. not to mention that he is not articulate.
January 25th, 2011 at 6:32 pm
I think his skin has a real dry look. what a shame
January 26th, 2011 at 12:36 pm
How does he have strong points? Are you guys insane?
Are you suggesting that all white women who get a butt lift want to be BLACK? And that black women all want to be white? It’s a matter of the grass always being greener.
Stop simplifying race and beauty.
January 26th, 2011 at 4:02 pm
mana biggest fun but yuh reeeally disappoint me! why kartel? mi boast to mi brejrin dem dat you ‘ah di best but now dat you do dis,mi cyaaan boast 🙁 smh, mi reeeally disappointed
January 26th, 2011 at 4:28 pm
damn. even though I had to read this slowly and outloud, I sympathize with your disappointment. I think its kind of creepy too.
January 27th, 2011 at 8:43 am
All I can say is regardless of what he is doing, music is music and that’s what I love about him. Everyone has imperfections and how you choose to deal with it is your business, lets face it lol he’s not the only one bleaching. Plenty people who are followers of my artist are bleaching themselves, so whats worst. Life is too short for me, you or anyone else to judge or care about what someone else is doing, worry about your own life, and be happy with who you are, and that’s respect coming from a Jamaican herself. Have a happy day everyone.
January 27th, 2011 at 8:46 am
Why be disappointed, really and truly it’s the music you love so why let his skin color get in the way. Life too short to be worrying over a next man that’s rich already.
January 31st, 2011 at 3:20 pm
bad man nah inna dem ting deh.
February 2nd, 2011 at 1:58 pm
what a sell out, plain and simple! who would of ever though a beautiful black man with all that talent would sell out like that?
no wonder movado dont like him
SELLOUT!!! BURN THE BLEACHERS!!!
February 5th, 2011 at 2:55 pm
What an idiot! He simply wants to be white, nothing new and different about that! Jamaica needs to educate their young people, least they turn into fools… like vybez now white Kartel.
February 6th, 2011 at 11:48 am
He has no point. Forget white people this is about us black people accepting our black beauty. Weaves and straighting has nothing to do with bleaching your skin. Its no coming back from that. Bleaching your skin is totally chaning you are. He looks disgusting and was better looking dark chocholate. Black is beautiful and seemts that Jamacians that do this has some kind of mental complex. He is a disgrace to our heritage. umh and he supposed to be gansta. hes a joke!! imposter…
February 6th, 2011 at 11:50 am
He’s a fake and has lost his creditibility. He just spitting bullshit to sell records. He can’t be a real badman bleaching his skin. next thing you know he will be dating white women and taking it in the ass.
February 6th, 2011 at 11:54 am
This man is pale. Look like a walking zoombie and make his culture look bad. Now he makes people question anytime they see a light skinned jamaican if they bleached their skin
February 6th, 2011 at 11:56 am
What do you mean rich already. He aint fickin rich, jamaican dollars dont count as being a millionaire.
February 6th, 2011 at 11:57 am
yes big up to movado!!!!
February 6th, 2011 at 12:00 pm
yes big up to movado!!!! micheal Jackson really had a disease.
February 9th, 2011 at 12:07 pm
He must be bulling or something,cauz he acting like a lil girl with he rubbinzzz…..Cartel you look so gay and you like u looking man.
February 15th, 2011 at 9:05 pm
He looks sick, its called low self esteem. I feel bad for him its mental slavery, thinking you look better white or light skinned…. black is beauty.
February 18th, 2011 at 1:21 am
live ur life why judge other peoples life that means kartel is 2 steps ahead of u f**kers
February 24th, 2011 at 5:55 pm
VYBES MEK DEM KMOW A LIGHT SKIN A DO IT…
February 25th, 2011 at 6:03 am
It’s simply inexplicable, how much this incident emphases how mentally inferior black people are. Kartel hates being black because white is the symbol of prosperity. This is a local manifestation of centuries of collective oppression and wrongful manipulation of black people. It will possibly take us as long (if ever) to recover! The evidence is all around us…what’s a black box? What’s the black market? What’s black magic? What’s a white lie? What’s white collar crime? Take it from me, this is much bigger than Kartel and all I know it HURTS like hell!!!!! Kartel, I agree with you doing what you please, but every time I think of why you’re doing it, it depresses me! (sigh)…
February 26th, 2011 at 4:16 am
Kartel iz undoubtedly da illest in spitting lyrically.But da bleacher looks like shit or maybe he suffered from low self esteem;shame on you Gaza pussy 4 denying your own natural self.
February 26th, 2011 at 7:21 am
Everyone is tripping. Michael Jackson did the same thing and no one put up a fight. Kartel do ur thing. I love u and ur music. Nuff love
February 26th, 2011 at 5:22 pm
VYBS U R A WICKED ARTIST N I LOVE YOUR MUSIC,, BUT U R GONA N HAVE LOST A LOT OV RESPECT OFF PEOPLE U WAS A NICE LOOKING BROTHER ITS A SHAME
February 27th, 2011 at 11:21 pm
Well i dont agree with anyone bleaching but Actually every single person in the world is African…..So you have no point…….Very rude indeed…..
March 2nd, 2011 at 4:45 pm
I think he has AIDS n trying to hide lesions n rashes so he evened his tone to match. his sores. Nasty I wouldn’t be surprised if he died mysteriously in the near future the man obviously has a disease AIDS or a sum serious illness not mental.
March 6th, 2011 at 10:36 am
Kartel is showing him tru colors. U ar nothing but a fake dollar, only useful til a closer scan. Fagisha!!
March 8th, 2011 at 2:35 pm
Wow…very well put.
March 13th, 2011 at 2:42 am
Y aint nobody talkn abt him entering illuminati?…wen u enter that cult they hv 2 change ur former self 2 wat they want u bcome mentally enslaved bt u get better at wat u r doin.
March 13th, 2011 at 11:33 am
plz dnt bleach mr kartel
March 14th, 2011 at 8:18 pm
I agree with you “DA TRUTH”…we as black people need to accept the way we were made by God…Kartel is No example to our youths…..I cannot find a word to describe kartel’s appearance..He’s a disgrace to the black race..just wanna say im crawl me skin, sick ma stomach ..not even him name me nuh like hear..@#**
March 15th, 2011 at 7:40 am
What does the way he look have to do with him as a artist. Lil wayne and gucci man tattooed up their face. R kelly pee on lickle girls. so the man use cake soap so does that change him as a artist. he still putting out the same hits and songs that he was putting out before. His personal choosings shouldnt have to do with any of his music. For people to judge the mans music because of his music show how hypocrite and parasite out there.
March 15th, 2011 at 9:00 pm
Lets say this judge not since you want to talk about the BIBLE, since you want to go there. You are not God and at the end of the day no one but Kartel has to answer for what he is doing. So what he bleach his skin he’s not the only one or the only race that do. I don’t see the big deal for people to hate him,once again you’re not him. We have too much to say about someone else and we ourselves are no where near perfect, so how can you tell someone else how to live their life. When you go to the club tell me you wont dance to his music and you’d be lying. I love his music no matter what so all you haters should “hopp off a him fender” and go look someting betta fi do.
March 15th, 2011 at 9:06 pm
WOW, maybe that’s what you want for yourself. What’s wrong with dating out your race, you sound like a racist. As for his bullshit, if you listen to his music let me give you his lyrics “if him no shit some bwoy no namm”. So no matter what he does he’ll be quite alright cause DE GAZA RULE.
March 15th, 2011 at 9:11 pm
weh you get dat from, look how many Jamaicans deh a yard weh rich wid we own money. Me sure know say you no close to kartel dollars. You caan come fra yard, a haffi abroad.
March 15th, 2011 at 9:15 pm
That’s how I feel, everyone is grown so do what you feel like, and brush the haters off your shoulders.
March 16th, 2011 at 2:23 am
Growing up in Jamaica i was always picked on because of my skin complexion,am brown skinned!what they call light skinned in America.i can hear it now black is beauty brown is corruption(lol)all the neighborhood kids would have a field day whit it,I learn to love me and who i am.and i think that should go for any man or woman.I think vybz cartel made a big mistake by starting something that he cant stop,And now he has to say any (BULL CRAP)to back up is bleaching addiction!I too is heavily tattooed skin,my tats have meaning and make sense.Vybz tats looks like someone threw a bucket of paint on his bleached out skin!!!
March 16th, 2011 at 10:20 pm
So you are saying that Jamaicans artists are in same as category the American Artists
(rapper)? Most of these rappers are uneducated fools. They have nothing worth saying! It seems like you are too! To put out a statement just shows how far you are from reality. Caribbean people (artist are known for so much more. His poor choice just show how we as a people have lost our culture!
March 21st, 2011 at 12:45 pm
Learn how to spell you ignorant fuck.
March 21st, 2011 at 12:47 pm
Holy shit. Is this even fucking english? Ignorant [edit]
March 23rd, 2011 at 3:49 pm
I think Kartel is an under cover homosexual and it is just a matter of time that it comes out, if not he is definitely bi-sexual. I don’t care how many girl songs you sing look at all the priest that preached against homosexuality. Kartel is an under cover f*g!
March 23rd, 2011 at 3:52 pm
Ryan you are an idiot if you don’t know anything about our culture shut the fack up. Big up yuh self Big Brooklyn. Kartel is an eediot (idiot) and don’t like black people or himself.
March 26th, 2011 at 10:36 am
That don’t look like bleach to me. Cake soap my backside- Cocaine and bleaching through the night. Man get some sleep and stop messing wit the hard sh#t.
March 27th, 2011 at 9:32 pm
yes him defend him self proper pl need fi mind dem business
March 28th, 2011 at 9:08 am
at least hes sparking debate about something that goes on regardless.
March 30th, 2011 at 5:23 am
KARTEL IS OUT OF HIS MIND HE SELL HIS SOLD LIKE M. JACKSON AND LAST WHAT FUCK IS HAPPENING WITH HIS TATOOS,SON OF DEVIL.IM BLACK AND HAPPY.
March 31st, 2011 at 5:11 pm
kartel iz not ah fucking homo so shut the fuck up and go check on uh fuckin self……gaza fi life
March 31st, 2011 at 5:31 pm
yah don know…..kartel iz d best in gaza…..awo!!!
April 4th, 2011 at 12:09 pm
Truly feeling you on that one, although it is still disappointing to hear and see that a strong black character like kartel is bleaching. As a black British female I prefer a dark skinned man; you know the saying” the blacker the berry the sweeter the juice”!!!!
April 7th, 2011 at 4:47 pm
Why? Why systematically deface destroy degrade the richness of your skin? I wanna know who in his camp / family told him he would benefit from such a drastic decision? His music is not the issue. He belongs to the human race & his music has given all so much joy that’s why now his appearance has affected so many in a negative fashion. He does not look healthy. What a distraction to huge talent.
April 11th, 2011 at 12:11 pm
This is what I wanna say this to all of the people on site that like to leave really insulting comments and some positive one to.
I don’t like the fact that Vybz’s bleach his skin but there’s nothing that no one on this site can do to change that.
He said something on Hot97 that’s very true. Even if you already seen his words or heard what he had to say on Hot97 then here it is again: “I’m my own man, and as such I do my own thing. When black women stop straightening their hair and wearing wigs and weaves, when white women stop getting lip and butt injections and implants, when bald men stop getting hair transplants, and when people stop getting nose jobs and cosmetic surgery then I’ll stop using the ‘cakesoap’ and we’ll all live naturally ever after. Until then F**k you all.”
He’s absolutely right people, he’s absolutely right!!!
If he wasn’t an artist no one would even be talking about this man because as we know, people do this very thing every single day. It’s sad that we concentrate so much on what one man does instead of what 5 men can do and have done to make any type of difference in the world.
As people we all have something inside or outside that we wish we could change but most of us don’t have Elephant Balls like Vybz’s or any other celebrity on this planet(Lil Kim)to wanna change something good or something bad about ourselves, whether it’s an physical appearance or a hidden demon. We’re all to concerned about what society, peers, family, associates and ourselves to wanna take a risk like Vybz’s did.
So I’m like fuck all of you’ll that has something to say about his bleached skin, we all have something that we wanna do but is just afraid to do it and it don’t necessarily mean a physical alteration people, think about it.
April 11th, 2011 at 4:11 pm
Everyone is an individual with the freedom of making choices. This man is educated enough to know bleaching is damaging to the health but it is his choice, this is what he has chosen to do and it shouldn’t matter to anyone else what he chooses to do providing he is not committing a crime nor endangering the lives or health of others. He is one of Jamaica greatest artists and I don’t agree with what he is doing to his skin but he knows why he does it and its not our place to judge him. I believe every man is free to do what they will if it doesn’t affect others!
GAZA TUH DI WHIRL MI SEH!
April 11th, 2011 at 4:22 pm
well said!
April 11th, 2011 at 5:02 pm
I deleted all his tune from my library after this.
April 11th, 2011 at 5:07 pm
I totally agree with your comment. People just do what makes you happy, and if bleaching makes Kartel happy then that’s his business.
April 11th, 2011 at 5:11 pm
A GAZA mi say straight, and anyone who care so much about what Kartel is doing should get a life.
April 11th, 2011 at 5:29 pm
Whether you delete his music or not, you will always hear his it at every club and everywhere in the world. If you love music it shouldn’t even matter. So what you ago cork ur ears everytime his music comes on, oh plz get over it, just be glad it’s not you.
April 11th, 2011 at 8:09 pm
Yellow like cheese. That’s all ima say. Be proud ah da color that you wear. The people that do the spray tanning thing…it’s not permanent, it’s ugly as all hell… but it aint permanent.
Ima put it like this…The black woman is the most beautiful woman on the earth, and it kills me to even think that a black woman would want to bleach and destroy the dominant trait that visually defines black beauty. And that’s coming from a white guy.
April 12th, 2011 at 7:27 pm
Dayum hes look bad…and not MJ bad. He looks unhealthy like he got liver failure. Bleach is not reversible either so no going back for him. So, its not like a tan, plus bleching chemicals can cause serious health problems. Dont know why anyone would want to experiment on their bodies cause we only get one. God Bless!
April 14th, 2011 at 2:51 am
Well I agree with vkatel .it’s his business and no can change that.I am a fan of his and I support him fully…
April 14th, 2011 at 3:21 pm
Hahahahaha wha gwan Vybez, going for the perfect look mi friend. Well time to bleach that ashy lips u have cos it not fit into your “beautiful white skin” lol, bwoy, man ah eediat fi real. mi caan stop laff!
April 14th, 2011 at 6:54 pm
You so called fans are silly!! You don’t have to agree with what he does to remain a fan!! It’s surprising that fans no longer have opinions of their own but automatically MUST agree with what the artiste does!!! It’s evident that some of you are equally psychologically inferior like Kartel!!! He makes good music, but he hates himself!!! And so he bleaches…full stop! Next!
April 18th, 2011 at 12:20 pm
gosh damn man looks like an aids vitim. i used to be proud of vybes one true black man up there in it. but i guess i cant say that now allow being ashamed of being black or that or any colour you are who you are why change that.
i cud understand if he were drawing down women but thats all he ever talks about in most songs sooo i guess movado it is then
April 19th, 2011 at 8:19 pm
Poor bwoy mussi get lick inna him head.
April 22nd, 2011 at 12:18 pm
(Kartel looks like a DUPPIE,) WTF is wrong with black peolple You think by now that we would do better but we seem to just get worse. EXceptance is the key keep it real yall.
April 28th, 2011 at 5:21 pm
vybez you dont belong to yoself that you do whatever you feel you can do with your body, dat body is a vessel of God and he created you black with a reason, woe to you and your bleaching
April 28th, 2011 at 5:39 pm
@Russo..how do you justify that nonsense?…you are going to declare that a body (other than yours) belongs to God. Unnu draw “God” into everything too much. Kartel’s body is Kartel’s and your body yours! Don’t be casting woes on the man for doing what he pleases with his body. Criticizing him is a matter of opinion and point of view but when you go as far as to condemn him to wherever (hell I suppose) then that’s just plain old folly! Btw…ask God why black people must suffer so much…since he made us black for a reason…maybe he made us to be the scorn of the earth and eternal sufferers…which shows his love for us ain’t it…(hiss mi teeth)
May 1st, 2011 at 1:54 pm
dats probably the worst pic of him wid his skin like that bt da mans a big artist get 2 no der plenty ova artist that are bleaching trust me
May 4th, 2011 at 2:44 am
what about him joining the iluminati? Selling his soul to the devil? That should count more that his skin color. Its obvious that he has AIDS.
May 5th, 2011 at 11:41 pm
Give the people fact, the type of bleaching he is doing is reversible.Dah ah yad dem rub an use cream dat stop the melanin production temporarily.I dont endorse or agree with his self mutilation but it can go back.
May 11th, 2011 at 12:45 pm
kartal look like fock ass
May 12th, 2011 at 12:40 pm
kartel is a cunt fire bun him
May 13th, 2011 at 10:28 am
This guy definately has an illness he looks ill like he’s dying. What woman would fancy this?! He’s really ruined himself completely.
May 15th, 2011 at 10:07 am

I feel sorry for your mum… shame and disgrace.
May 17th, 2011 at 3:24 am
Most of what has been said is a load of rubbish. White people wanna be darker and if many whites had the option to be permenantly darker would take it, but that doesn’t mean they want afro hair and the culture. Black people don’t want to be ‘white’, but SOME want a lighter colour skin. Vybz is an extreme case and prob regrets goin overboard, but each man to their own. Who give a ****?? It doesn’t affect me or my family, its all for him to deal with. I am of an African background and it seems alot of the women put some kind of make up on to really lighten their skin (of which I disapprove), if you mentioned that they want to be white, it would upset them as they love their culture. All races do it. Indians and Pakistanis will not marry others of their own race if too dark. Chinese and Japanese want to have more round eyes, SOME white people wanna be darker and SOME black people wanna be lighter. Lets all just get over it
May 24th, 2011 at 10:24 am
U People are so ignorant….when you join this society the most of the songs u release are hits because they make them….Kartel cud neva make so many hit songs on his own… and if you people are smart this bleaching is a sign of that and u need to do more research to no about it.. micheal jackson was in the same situation..
May 24th, 2011 at 9:44 pm
Kartel doing shit… no true man or bad man should be bleaching their skin… am also against women bleaching their skin… he is an ass hole for doing it… you singing bout u a bad man and then you bleaching .. its like a homosexual saying he straight but he fucking another man at home… bull shit kartel
May 29th, 2011 at 2:13 am
Big up to all e beautiful women and the good men around. Me 1st want to tell all those who condone Kartel’s actions in Jamaica that we in Africa are inspired with the likes of Marley, Garvey, Biko, Bennie because of their black consciousnes and moral teachings. Big up Shango. Kartel teaches the Ghetto yuts our kids wat wit bleachn face, that white z bettr? God bles Kartel, he z a brother gone astray. I burn babylon mentality
June 6th, 2011 at 3:58 am
put a fire ponn dat pussyclat..pass mi touch n let m burn hm up
June 12th, 2011 at 6:53 am
I don’t think people would even care or comment about him bleaching if it looked natural but what people who bleach don’t realize is it gives your skin an unnatural almost grey tone to it that makes you look almost sick or unhealthy. the other thing is other parts of your body don’t change they stay the color of your former self which is the mouth and it just doesn’t look natural and makes you stand out in a strange way. Bleaching 1 shade lighter is ok but when you go 4 & 5 shades it takes on an unatural tone and that’s when people start to stare.
June 12th, 2011 at 7:17 am
Alot of people forget Micheal jackson had a disease called Vitaligo which causes you to lose the color in your skin in spots so he began bleaching the remaining parts of his original brown skin to match what the disease had done. If you look at Vybz bleached skin and Micheal Jackson it looks totally different! Micheal jackson skin was even whiter than the average white person’s skin cake soap can’t do that. Micheal J’s skin was the result of his body losing the ability to produce melinen to keep brown almost albino like. Vybz is something totally different.
June 13th, 2011 at 7:56 am
Dude looks ashy as hell!
June 16th, 2011 at 10:12 am
Ryan = Ignorant.
June 20th, 2011 at 5:20 am
Jesus Christ. Dude is definitely unwell. I wouldn’t be surprised if he has some kinda disease like AIDS and is attempting to cover up sores or something similar either, because, not only is his skin fucked up, but if you look closer and at other pictures of him, he’s skinny as fuck. How sad. 🙁

He can get as defensive all he likes, but the fact is, people are gonna look up or down on him according to his deeds. That’s what happens when you’re in the public eye. He’s painted a piture of himself (confident, secure cocky) which evidently isn’t true. But ya know what, if one person decides against messing with bleach cause of this pic then its all good!

July 4th, 2011 at 5:03 pm

Wow! I am very dissapointed. I am in awe of black beauty, I don’t think black people should be ‘just’ grateful for the way God made them, there shouldn’t be any issues in getting over the fact you are born black. As that would imply there were something wrong with being black. Every race has its beauty, and when I see beautiful strong intelligent black women, I feel a little envy that I can never look like that. This does not mean I am unhappy in my Asian skin but black beauty is awesome. Why manipulate it like so, and ruin it?
And this ignorant Ryan telling people to spell right, you are in the wrong place, so move along. I hope Vybz see’s some sense soon, its not a good look!

July 29th, 2011 at 6:53 pm
why does this make you think he is gay? what does it even hav to do wit his sexuality?
July 29th, 2011 at 6:59 pm
do you know what aids lesions look like? you would not be able to hide them that easily with bleaching. they do not just change the color of your skin, they are usually raised or inverted and can often be open or raw. also, bleaching would not match his actual skin tone to the tone of the lesion/sarcoma, as they are usually dark red. educate yourself before making idiotic and baseless comments
August 11th, 2011 at 1:37 pm
All I’m Reading Is A Bunch Of Hate. Let That Man Do His Thing. Who The F*ck Are Y’all To Be Judging Him?….GOD? He’s One Of The Best Artist In The Game Right Now. Keep Doing Your Thing Kartel

You are an ignorant fool. If you hate Vybz Kartel and Jamaican’s so much what are you even doing on this page. Let’s look at some of Webster’s definitions of the word fool: “a person lacking in judgment or prudence”- you seem to fit this definition. I mean how did you end up on a post that is almost a year old? You had to be looking for it and why are you paying so much attention to Vybz that you are looking him up so long after he bleached his skin. To me that action seems as if it was done by a person lacking in judgement. A person with judgement would not be looking up “fools”. They would be doing something more beneficial to their well being. A second definition, “a harmlessly deranged person or one lacking in common powers of understanding.” Personally that is my favorite definition and again it sounds like you. If you were not “lacking in common powers of understanding” you would know that one person’s actions does not make everyone in an entire ethnic group a bunch of fools. Obviously you are an unintelligent, ignorant fool. In case you have not guessed yet I am a proud Jamaican young lady who cannot stand idiocity and you are the embodiment of idiocity.

My goodness Kartel! If you should change yourself, do it for the better. It doesn’t matter if the change is permanent or not, the principle is the same that’s why I love him for this statement
January 12th, 2012 at 5:43 pm
ohh my god that’s just messed up. you bring shame to black plp!!
January 12th, 2012 at 9:00 pm

yeah its silly what he done! but its his choice and his skin!
April 4th, 2012 at 1:08 pm
OMG!
May 23rd, 2012 at 12:58 am
I think we all should look closer at that photo. I believe he is not only bleaching, but also suffering from early stage liver and kidney failure. Watch what happens….
September 30th, 2012 at 5:54 pm
Cause any man that aint comfortable in their own skin, nullifies and voids the term MAN!!! A real man would not deny himself.
September 30th, 2012 at 5:56 pm
this topic is idiotic
October 2nd, 2012 at 3:26 am
Its sad to see is rationalization of his self mutilation. Its not surprising though. The self propelled, self hate is reinforced by commercials. Not just against dark skinned people, but humans in general. You’re either not skinny enough light enough, tan enough, strong enough, small enough to fit in those jeans and the cure is their products. But he is an adult. If he wants to look ridiculous, that is entirely his right.
April 12th, 2013 at 12:14 pm
Vybz u r so dumb 4 doing wat u did. but u are the hottest one out. let dem haters keep hating.
April 12th, 2013 at 12:20 pm

June 5th, 2013 at 8:11 am
De man is extra good,doing what he does best,everything cute is not welcome in the land of ugly, and so if you cant get closer to that, keep it to your self instead of screaming.
December 6th, 2013 at 1:38 pm
beautiful and great artists.
