This is what is known as a tightening of the screw. Having banned Mavado and Bounty Killer from its territory last week (news of 29/04/2008), Guyana has now also banned them from the airwaves. This is what the Jamaica Star reports, citing the site islandevents.com. All producers of programmes broadcast on national television and radio NCN (National Communications Network) have reportedly been asked to remove the two artists' tracks from their playlists, because of their lyrics.
Still according to islandevents.com, the organisers of Bounty Killer's show in early April are said to have obtained a commitment from the artist not to promote violence, which he did not honour, thereby provoking the administration's anger. Will people at least be able to play GTA IV, in which Mavado appears?
