Bounty Killer's camp has described the negative comments being made about the song My Boy Lollipop as baseless.
My Boy Lollipop is a collaboration done with upcoming act Gabriel. Since the release of the remake of the Millie Small original of the same name, critics in the local dancehall community have reportedly been making disparaging comments as it relates to Bounty Killer's role in a song alluding to 'lollipop'.
Alliance Next Generation Manager Cross Cris who spoke on Bounty Killer's behalf yesterday had strong words for detractors.
He said : "It's just people who have that kind of mind think that way. It's the same way they bashed the song (Hey Baby) with Bounty Killer and No Doubt and it went double platinum. What critics are saying is baseless; it's obvious they haven't listened to the song," he said.
According to Cross Cris, the song is legendary material before the existence of dancehall, and the message is about appreciation and not sex.
He added: "People have always referred to their spouse as sugar and so forth. This song does not say anything about tasting or nothing oral. As I said, it's baseless and Bounty Killer would tell yuh the same thing.”
