Sutherland" <RGSutherland@cvmtv.com>, Nicole Burgher <NBurgher@cvmtv.com> Subject: Obscene Content - CVM TV Broadcasting Commission, During the program "Man A Gallis: Risk Factors for HIV/AIDS In The Dancehall" aired on CVM TV on Thursday 2/2/12, the operators of the station caused the following material to be transmitted over the publicly-owned airwaves: (1). Between 9:30pm and 9:45pm, the promotion of violence toward men who have sex with men (MSM) contained in the lyrics "boom bye bye inna (edit) bwoy head", despite the American lobby groups chiding the Jamaican Dancehall artists for their intolerance to the homosexuality subject matter and the imminent austerity measures Jamaicans suffered i.e., being barred from performing in the U.S.; (2). Between 9:45pm and 10:00pm, the graphic and obscene elements therein and promotion of violence toward men who have sex with men (MSM) contained in the lyrics "from dem a par inna chi-chi man cyar blaze di fire mek wi bun dem"; (3). At 10:03pm, the graphic and obscene term "pussy tight" from the song "Romping Shop" performed by Vybz Kartel & Spice was transmitted in an obviously uncensored format DESPITE [it] being banned from broadcast television and radio by virtue of the prohibition enumerated in the Commission's 2009 Directives. Let me make it absolutely clear that this program was intended to EDUCATE however, the fact that material which promoted violence against a minority group (Gays) were embedded then the message was skewed and offends against good taste and morals and goes against community standards.

The edited version (to follow) will demonstrate the removal of these lyrics. Clearly, explicit language directed to anal sex is made here; Also on March 6, 2012, DJ Chrome also aired the following content: At 5:07pm, the record "YOUR BODY" by Pretty Ricky: "I lick em and freak 'em...", "You can feel on it if you really want to", "bust in you like atomi-ee, I'm ahead of my class gettin' HEAD in the jag." N.B. by the term "lick em", reference is made to oral sex. By the term "feel on it", reference is made to the penis and obviously by the terms "bust in you" and "gettin' head in the jag", reference is made to ejaculating in her and oral sex being performed on him in his jaguar..." The edited version (to follow) will demonstrate the removal of these graphic and sexual references; At 5:22pm, the record "Just A Lil Bit" by 50 Cent: "I wanna unbutton your pants just a lil bit, take 'em off and pull 'em down just a lil bit, get to kissin' and touchin' a lil bit."

March 9, 2012 - ZIP FM Complaint Follow-Up


Begin forwarded message: From: Delano Music <broadcastmonitor@yahoo.com> Date: March 9, 2012 11:08:22 AM EST To: Michelle Francis <mfrancis@broadcom.org> Cc: Winsome Cousins <WCousins@broadcom.org>, Complaints <complaints@broadcom.org>, Karlene Johnson <KJohnson@broadcom.org>, Cordel Green <cgreen@broadcom.org>, Brian Schmidt Subject: Follow Up Comments on Recent Complaint - ZIP FM Reply-To: Delano Music <broadcastmonitor@yahoo.com> Broadcasting Commission, Let us carefully analyze the degree of obscenity in the lyrics of the record "Your Body" performed by Pretty Ricky, that DJ Chrome aired on ZIP FM on Tuesday 3/6/12. This information was confirmed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), an MTV video jock and representatives of the American record pools Promo Only Inc., Illinois DJ Pool and Radio Express Inc. EXPLICIT SEXUAL CONTENT - "I lick 'em and freak 'em ...'': The reference is made to oral sex and penetration. SEXUAL INNUENDO and ADULT CONTENT - ''You can feel on it if you really want to'': Discussions (with sexual interpretation) about feeling the man's penis. GRAPHIC LANGUAGE/LYRICS and EXPLICIT SEXUAL CONTENT - ''Bust in you like atomi-ee'' and ''...gettin' HEAD in the jag.'': Discussions about the man ejaculating in the woman and having oral sex performed on the man. When you compare the explicit version of the record aired by DJ Chrome with the version I supplied to aid the investigations, there is CLEARLY a distinction in difference where language usage and formatting are concerned for the public airwaves. In the version aired by ZIP FM, the lyrics state: (1). ''...we can just cuddle up, but if she want me to (beat it) up then damn it I'll (beat it) up.'' Live editing employed here (...). (2). ''They (take me and rape me and) make me they victim.''. Live editing employed here (...).

(3). ''I lick 'em and freak 'em (if they married I see) ya.'' Live editing employed here (...). (4). ''You can feel on it if you really want to, get a taste of the (salami)...'' Live editing employed here (...). (5). ''Bust in you like atomi-ee'' and ''...gettin' HEAD in the jag.'' NB. The intro to the record "Lighters Up" performed by Lil Kim was used as the live editing mechanism by the DJ. Now, in the version I supplied, the lyrics state: (1). ''...we can just cuddle up, and if you don't wanna cuddle up then baby we can make love.'' (2). ''They take me and MAKE ME and make me they victim.'' (3). ''I list 'em and teach 'em if they married I see ya.'' (4). ''You can jump on me if you really want to, dressed in my money (5). ''Let me meet your mommy'' and ''...having a blast.'' Not only was this version of the record that ZIP FM aired NOT suitable for (airplay) transmission at any time due to its obscene content, but it also breached the Childrens' Programming Code and the Television & Sound Broadcasting Regulations, which stipulate that explicit and obscene material should not be broadcast, time of day scheduling requirements and that "live-editing'' to obscure objectionable material causes an infringement of said directives. DJ Liquid is on suspension indefinitely and deserves to remain off the public airwaves PERMANENTLY for the airing the record "Quickie'' performed by Miguel. As much as that record in its original format contains sexual discussions and material not suitable for children, which was further fueled by his untoward and predictable remarks promoting sex, about ladies not wanting ''quickie'' all the time, it was not entirely appealing to the prurient interest such as the graphic material outlined in this record by DJ Chrome. Like the operators of FLOW who sponsored the program, I most certainly can't wait to see what the Broadcasting Commission's ruling will be in light of this particular incident. Regards, Delano

The type of nudity transmitted was the full rear view of a man (hotel guest) standing at a door displaying his buttocks. This material rises to the level of obscenity on broadcast television.

Promotion of violence, glorifying the gun and offense against the person:"Weh dem a do weh dem a try, marrow wi fly into di sky, GUN mi nuh barrow mi money buy, a bwoie wi cry" from the song "Weh Dem A Do" performed by Mavado, (10:02pm) N.B. One way for someone's [brain] marrow to "fly" is by the use of a gun to the head as is obviously depicted here; Graphic lyrics and sexual references:"None a my friend dem nuh bow fi nuh money" - by an unidentified artist (Possibly Sizzla or Capleton) (10:04pm) Reference to oral sex is made here. This material was also transmitted on Thursday 3/8/12 between 1:05pm & 1:10pm, in the middle of the day when there's a reasonable chance that children are home from school and make up the audience impressions. We are all aware that the 2009 Directives, the Television and Sound Broadcasting Regulations and the Children's Code prohibit the promotion of violence and glorification of the gun and graphic language from broadcast at any time.

As it regards any other lyric site research, I would like you to consider the fact that some websites edit the lyrics for 13 year olds. I wouldn't expect that someone would be using edited lyrics to confirm profanity in a record. That is why I referred you to Metrolyrics. You are very much urged however to pick choose and refuse any one of the following non-biased sites to confirm that the F-word is indeed present and my complaint remains incontestable. The presence of ther F-word can be heard at the 10th second mark from the recording as I previously indicated and remain so. I used Metrolyrics as reference as that is the website that the record pools "Promo Only", "DJ City" and "Radio Express" utilizes when they are performing in-house editing and tweaks before records are sent to radio programmers in the United States. Let me assure you that there was no bias whatsoever to this website since it is the most accurate and trusted when compared to other sites. At E-Lyrics.net, the lyrics are edited therefore explicit language would not be seen, so this would not be a site for you to confirm lyrics - http://www.elyrics.net/read/m/meek-mill-lyrics/house-party-lyrics.html At Songlyrics.com, the lyrics representing the F-word is very obvious - http://www.songlyrics.com/meekmill/house-party-lyrics/ At Lyricsmode.com, the lyrics are edited again therefore you wouldn't see the profane language http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/m/meek_mill/house_party.html At lyricsjuzz.blogspot.com, you can't miss the F-word - http://lyricsjuzz.blogspot.com/2011/08/meekmill-house-party-lyrics-ft-young.html?m=1 At A-Z Lyrics Database, the lyrics are edited, again you wouldn't see profane lyrics here http://www.azlyricdb.com/lyrics/Meek-Mill-House-Party-333293 At Rapgenius.com, the F-word is present - http://rapgenius.com/Meek-mill-house-party-lyrics At AZLyrics.com, the F-word is present - http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/meekmill/houseparty.html At Urbanlyrics.com, the F-word is present http://www.urbanlyrics.com/lyrics/meekmillz/houseparty.html We look forward to the outcome of the Broadcasting Commission's investigations.

Mary J. Blige, Chris Brown, Fabolous & Kirko Bangz and the following sexually explicit and graphic lyrics transmitted:

[Fabolous verse]: "...You been around since the Lunchables, girl I (edit) with you in the back of the truck with you, same fingers I chuck with two I'm just playing with you, ...Still playing with it, but you like it raw might need a morning after, what we did the night before might go another round if you're trying to fight me more". For the purposes of clarity, let me explain what the inferences of these lyrics are since I suspect that my intelligence will be insulted by some: Having sex in the back of the truck, fingering the woman, the woman liking raw sex and the suggestion that a morning after pill is needed to avoid pregnancy. These lyrics are even more intense and sexual than "No BS" performed by Chris Brown. I await the outcome of the Commission's investigations. Delano

In 2009/2010, I made a report regarding the record "Rockin' That Thang" by The Dream which was transmitted by three DJs at FAME FM - Kevin, Arif Cooper and DJ Inferno, where the lyrics "...she under my shirt, I'm under her bra" were transmitted, since the term "under her bra" references the fondling of breasts and which I found objectionable. The Commission ruled that it was indeed inappropriate and should not be aired before the Safe Harbor period (9:00p.m. - 5:00a.m.) and directed Fame Fm to apologize. The subject matter references even greater levels of adult content and explicit language than The Dream saying "under her bra". Regards, Delano

Broadcasting Commission, The following obscene content was transmitted over the publicly-owned airways by the licensee ZIP FM via DJ Bambino: "A my fault a my fault cause me know me good, beat me chest because me take weh you WOOD... ...a yah suh nice, soft and jelly and warm and right" By virtue of the term "take weh you wood", it is explicitly stating that the penis of another woman's man was acquired by her (Tifa) and that of course her good (vagina) is soft, jelly and warm".! I am dumb-founded to understand that the writers and producers of this song would've thought that the term "wood", which references the penis, would be more euphemistic than "hood", which is the Jamaican vernacular, again, for penis. I urge that the Commission take the appropriate actions against the operators of ZIP 103 FM, in respect of the provisions of the Children's Programming Code and the Television & Sound Broadcasting Regulations and [other] public decency standards and in support of all the advertising entities blindcopied to this communication.

Since the digital* channel MTV Hits is not available on satellite systems but only to some cable operators in America - Comcast Cable Communications and most recently Time Warner Cable, then I had no choice but to subscribe to a local cable company that makes these channels available to me in Jamaica. The obvious choice was Flow. My issue is not with Flow offering these digital channels, because I have spoken with MTV and they informed me that they have given the cable operator limited rights to re-transmit by way of contracts, in other words it's a legal transmission. The issue is that I have noted on several occasions, where Flow advertises local content on these American channels which violates the copyright agreement with MTV. In 2009, I contacted Flow about this nuisance, where they found it appropriate to air their local crap, i.e., community notice board events and local advertisements. The representative of the company at that time indicated to me that the Broadcasting Commission gave them permission to carry out that act. Whenever there is a music video being aired on BET, MTV or a program on Nickelodeon, Flow abruptly inserts one of their annoying ADs which are often at high and disturbing volumes. This is unprecedented, as I have never in my days seen a cable operator advertise their crap (and they can't) while a program is running or during a scheduled commercial break on a network channel. It was bad enough that they air their local content during the scheduled commercial breaks by these channels; it is another nuisance for them to air same while programs are actually running. Obviously, Flow has a community channel, therefore, any information that they feel is important to convey to viewers, then it should be placed on their notice board. What they did and what the Broadcasting Commission authorized was despicable.

First of all, the Broadcasting Commission is NOT the rights holder for Viacom channels or any American works for that matter, nor is it otherwise jurisdictional for the Commission to offer such an unlawful directive. Secondly, no competent regulator, let alone no one in their right mind would dare to offer nontransferable and extraterritorial rights to a cable operator, giving them permission to cause a nuisance to viewers by way of advertising on American content. I contacted Deborah Robinson about these incidents in June, 2011 and she has conducted an investigation. I never followed up with her as to what she had directed Flow to do, but I now get to understand - was just advised, that the cable operator has started being a nuisance to their subscribers again, by erroneously and ILLEGALLY transmitting local content over US cable channels and programming. I will be speaking with Deborah this afternoon and will ascertain what came out of the investigations and inform her that Flow continues to cause infringement on content protection. In the meantime, I urge that this foolishness and whatever extraterritorial rights that the Broadcasting Commission thought they had in giving Flow the permission to carry out such an act, to desist and simultaneously direct Flow to immediately desist from causing a nuisance to subscribers of the MTV Networks and ALL other US cable channels that this may be carried out on. Regards, Delano * All American networks have upgraded their facilities to and transmits digital signals, which means that superior audio and video and virtually no interference can be experienced. Digital in the context of this statement refers to the computer automation of programing of MTV HITS, MTV JAMS and VH1 SOUL. These channels are operated by the computer where the programer(s) load music video clips, advertisements etc., as part of scheduling, that refreshes its playlist three times per day, every eight hours commencing at 6:00am every day.

The material contained ongoing sexual discussions and themes that were ONLY appropriate for mature audiences over 18 years old and included sexual positions, role-playing and [other] bedroom innuendos; Overtones, adult content and depictions of sex which lacked literary value and appealed to the prurient interest of any healthy male or female viewer were also the subject of the material. Since there are provisions already in place for the broadcast of mature content by licensees that utilize the publicly-owned airwaves - between 9:00pm and 5:00am, then this is a direct violation of the Time of Day Scheduling Requirements of the Children's Programing Code and community broadcast standards. Please also note that the operators of CVM TV slapping a "PG" rating on screen made them no less liable for the offense. In fact, the material contained therein was so mature that it warranted a rating of NO LESS than a "TV-MA" (for mature audiences only) or the Jamaican equivalent of "PG-16." Impressionable viewers, particularly children, were most likely a part of the audience impressions during that period, based on the time, and were obviously exposed to the inappropriate content.Kindly investigate with a view to remedial actions.
