Jamaican rapper Sean Paul has joined the ever growing band of hip-hop stars to speak out against homophobia in music.Lyrics from artists such as Eminem have courted controversy and caused outrage amongst the gay community.
Only a few weeks ago outspoken hip-hopper Kanye West beseeched fellow artists to open their minds over the issue of sexuality.
Sean Paul singled out the notoriously anti-gay tune 'Chi Chi Man', by Jamaican rapper TOK, as an example of the type of music that is degrading the industry.
He said: "Right now my question to these dudes is, 'Why say it so many times?' It's really hurting the music on a monumental level."
Sean Paul shot to fame when he dueted with Blu Cantrell on the song 'Breathe' and has had numerous hits including 'Shake That Thing' and 'Dutty Rock'.
