Chronixx says sorry for ‘waste man’ post?

Reggae artiste Chronixx may be regretting comments he made during US President Barack Obama’s visit to Jamaica.

“This man… still have a criminal record in the United States and we glorifying some wasteman! This man was hunted and imprisoned by our Jamaican Government… who for some years paved a peaceful and safe path for the president to address us a “race of good for nothings!!! [inserts fire emoticon] that’s why black faces don’t meant anything to rasta anymore,” the temperamental artiste said on Thursday.

Chronixx later removed the ‘wasteman’ post and wrote that he expects to be judged and told he’s wrong.

“Evolution time now. After all the talk…judge and you shall be judged my elders say. I don’t mind the judgement of my Human family. I expect to be judged and told when I’m wrong…that’s actually a very healthy thing for me. Now for you….remember the words of the Likkle one from Spanish town said. The media will take it from here, twist it in the best interest of their “story”. And the struggle continues. Let jah be praised on all things. I read all the comments and now I see who is who! Love.”

He further said: “May the teachings of our beloved Marcus Garvey forever take root in our hearts. May the leaders of today take counsel in his divine teachings.”

But Chronixx may have put his foot in his mouth as he lashed the Government about not fighting for Garvey.

Prime Minister Portia Simpson Miller, who hosted Obama for bilateral talks, had asked him to exonerate Garvey, before Chronixx’s statement. The PM said she told Obama it is the “deep desire of the government and people of Jamaica” to have Garvey exonerated of the conviction that got him deported back to his Jamaican homeland in 1927.
