Cham (left) and Prime Minister Andrew Holness
Veteran dancehall artiste Cham is hitting back at Prime Minister Andrew Holness for rebuking aspects of Jamaican music which the nation's leader said is contributing to high levels of violence in the country.
In a near three-minute long social media video released over the weekend, Cham questioned whether Holness had evidence to prove the link between music and crime, and urged the prime minister to do his job as leader and desist from blaming entertainers for the country's problem with violence.
"Mr Prime Minister did your conclusion arrive from study (studies) done or did it arrive from guilt from mismanagement over the years?" Cham questioned.
