Jahazeil Myrie, son of Buju Banton, is addressing the social media backlash after comments in a recent interview about “almost turning gay” due to spiritual struggles.
A short clip from the nearly one-hour conversation went viral, with some viewers criticizing Jahazeil for discussing sexual thoughts about the same sex. In the full interview, he explained the experience as a battle with spiritual manipulation, saying his father’s songs helped him stay grounded.
Responding on Instagram, Jahazeil urged fans not to jump to conclusions from the clip alone, writing, “If you guys could take the time out to actually sit watch the video on YouTube don’t just run with a clip you saw on media. The interview is there go watch it have a blessed day 1.”
The spiritual artist’s full interview remains online for those wanting the complete context.
