Ever since the Broadcasting Commission flexed its muscles and started banning music with lyrics that are deemed to be sexually explicit and/or promoting violence, there have been grey areas that are left open to interpretation.

The Media Association of Jamaica (MAJ) in an effort to toe the line has compiled a list of songs to present to the regulators for their opinion. Here are the over 200 songs that are in question, as taken from a list being circulated on Facebook. And, please note that this list of over 200 is not exhausted … there could very well be more songs added. Pop it to see the list!
