Ambassador Rihanna Exposed At Reggae Concert

beenie_man.jpgYardflex came across the following article on bajan.wordpress.com and if you thought that Beenie Man didn’t diss Rihanna in Barbados then think again. Some Bajans are really worked up over it.
Below is the article that was posted on the website and some of comments that were posted.



Ambassador Rihanna did a cameo at Reggae On The Hill last week during Beenie Man’s performance. For BU family members who don’t have the ear to understand what he is singing in the video here is the hook line Me no have fancy car, but me no give you no scar. From reports Rihanna lingered on stage for a little while and then scuttled with her tail between her legs.



The dignity of Ambassador Rihanna exposed by what some people would call a thug in Beenie Man. It is no secret that many of the dancehall/dub artistes who frequent Barbados are very well known to court rooms around the world. We thought it laughable that several of the dancehall/reggae artistes who performed at Farley Hill last week complained about the treatment meted out by the Royal Barbados Police Force. Did they believe that our police force is clueless? People get ‘high’ just walking through the crowd at one of these shows!



Sorry guys but we give the police the benefit of the doubt on this one.

Of interest to Barbadians is the active involvement of Al Gilkes who post-National Cultural Foundation Chairman duties has taken to promoting these shows with a passion. It is difficult to imagine that Mr. Gilkes had responsibility for promoting cultural activities in Barbados in the recent past. His eagerness to foist the popular Jamaica genre of music makes us question his decision making as NCF Chairman. This is the same Gilkes who has has bleated to all of Barbados that the government should push down the Farley Hill ruins. No discussion about rehabilitating the building, he jumps to push down. Makes you go ummmmmm.

The BU household maybe alone on this one because even our Prime Minister seems to be comfortable with the shows if we are to judge by his appearance. No wonder our Youth Ambassador can be insulted by a lout and there is not a murmur from a soul.

I am not a big fan of Rihanna but I am upset and I agree with David that we allowed a Jamaican lout to insult our own star.
Can anyone imagine if a Barbadian went to Jamaica and insulted or embarrassed Usain Bolt or any of the other Jamaican heroes.

Until we Barbadians start respecting and loving our own,this sort of treatment will continue.It serves us right.

Look how Norman Faria,Vic Fernandes and all the other Guyanese were and are guest of Barbados and the insults and ridicule we constantly receive from those ungrateful bastards.

Rihanna I hope you are learning your lessons.I know you are a pompous,arrogant,immature little girl.I know of your behavior at the Accra Hotel,at the Hilton Hotel and also your behavior at The Cliff Restaurant recently when you made the waiter take back in the food about 3 times.
Rihanna I also remembered when you criticised Barbadians and said that Barbadians are jealous of your success and you had many bad & hurtful things to say about Barbadians.Nevertheless you are one of us and you have done us proud and you should be respected for your successes.

Get a life Bajans. You Bajans treat Jamaicans like shit in your country, even the decent Jamaicans. You think that Americans have not disrespected Your hero Rihanna? Which country would put Rihanna as a hero? All the man said is he would not hit or abuse her. I can not deal with these Bajans who think their so much more classy then the rest of the islands, especially Jamaicans.

LMAO.... Is the editor of this article on coke or something? You bajans insult Rihanna every day and talk the most things... Just look at how you ended the letter? lol.. Beenie insulted or 'dissed' Rihanna how excatly when the entire world knew what happen? He insulted chris not Rihanna so don't use that as a REASON to write what you truly feel about your 'pompous,arrogant,immature little girl', and that was taken from ur letter... STFU HYPOCRITES!

THIS IS THE MOST HYPOCRITICAL ARTICLE I'VE READ ON YARDFLEX.. HOW CAN YOU CALL RIHANNA A HERO? I'M SURE THERE ARE OTHER VERY SUCCESSFUL BAJAN ARTISTS OUT THERE... SECOND..YOUR CALLING HER A HERO YET SAYING SHE IS IMMATURE.. ARROGANT.. ETC... WE HAVE NO WORD YET ON HOW SHE FELT ABOUT WHAT BEENIE DID.. YET BENNIE DIDNT DIRECTLY DISS HER INSTEAD DISSED CHRIS BROWN... I THINK YOU NEED TO CHECK YOUR FACTS, AND RESPECT ARTISTS FOR WHO THEY ARE! AND THE NERVE TO TALK ABOUT JAMAICANS AS IF BAJANS ARE NOT THE SAME WAY... PLEASE! STFU!

who wrote this a five year old? i don't know what they are saying.


Posted by: Nadz on May 5, 2009 11:05 PM

this one is dedicated to ms. chelly, are u stupid are something? It seems you missed the entire point of this article. Don't dis Beenie, you have to be a &*&*&*& yankie to be taking up for chris brown after what he did. Just shut up

First let me say how inappropriate Beenie Man's actions were. He is obviously not the brightest or smartest person around. Why would you want to mention something like that when Rihanna is trying very hard to move past that very difficult and traumatising moment in her life? Beenie Man acted insensitively and obviously didn't take the young lady's feelings into consideration.

With that said though, I think that the Bajans are the most arrogant and self-righteous set of people in the Caribbean. Did you know that the Bajans pride themselves for being most well-spoken of all the island nations? A f*cking joke right? To make matters worst I strongly believe that they have something against Jamaicans. They treat Jamaicans like sh*t and yet so many of our people are inclined to travel to their country.

It's even more ironic how at the end of the article the editor found it necessary to bash Rihanna. It's obviously a case of "I can discipline my child but you can't".

why would she invite him to after party after that,an fool wko say beenie man beat wife an spice that a hear say,chris brown going to prison for hitting she differents learn that,

confused bajan


Posted by: Kiwi on May 6, 2009 09:51 AM

Beenie needs to keep his penis in his pants,obviously he was trying to add Rihanna to his little black book or in jamaican terms 'him did a try fi look har' I think he was being a bit hypocritical by saying that he would never hit her 'HELLO ' is this the same Beenie we Jamaicans know? Does Spice (SCAAAN DEM!)and D'Angel (AN SO!)Ring a bell? 'TING A LING A LING??' TING A LING A LING TING A LING A LING!!!!!!!!


Posted by: yard gal fi life!!! on May 6, 2009 10:23 AM

Will you Bajans get over yourselves, i agree maybe he shouldn't have said what he said in that fashion and put her on the spot like that, but at least he said it to her face and not behind her back. Just look at what you're saying about your beloved native, but i guess that doesn't count because you're Bajan right'.


Posted by: Kevin on May 6, 2009 11:22 AM

Let me first say that i am 100% bajan and lived in bim all my life. No one in barbados takes that website seriously. they use the anonymity of the net to post tasteless things about ppl. Please don't think all bajans are like that. Even if Beenie insulted Rhianna that gives the author no right to class up all Jamaicans as ill mannered.

For all of you who don't know what went on,you can watch clips of it on youtube I was disgusted when I watched the way Beenie conducted himself on stage,Beenie Man does not know how to behave like a man,if you look at the tape you will see and hear things like 'mi no care who yu are,me would a sex har inna mi car an mek she know man a superstar mi come from jamaica an yu come from ya,mi no care if yu come from far.Mi a go cock har up foot inna di air an give har my umbrella ella ella'. People that is not disrespectful? He even tried to grind on her,she then exited the stage.No matter what goes on in rihanna's life that does not give him the right to humiliate her like that.I bet he would not have done that to Reneto Adams daughter or the Prime Minister Bruce Golding's daughter if she were in a similar predicament.What he did was dry rape her emotionally. Beenie man has a tendency to disrespect women whom he believe he can disrespect and get away with it women he believe people view as lower class or unladylike,but there is no such thing as lower class because none of us is better than the other we all screw up at some point in life but it's for us to realize our mistakes and rectify them.Rihanna is young and has time to straighten out her life and find someone who will love and respect her,But Beenie is one zebra who doesn't look like he is about to change his stripes anytime soon,I mean seriously this man is a fully grown man with kids and look at the way he behaves.So Until Beenie Man grows up,I would advise Jamaican Men and women to hide their daughters from the category 5 hurricane that is Beenie Man.

First of all big up all West-Indians!
Wow, I'm really disturbed by some of the comments made by non-barbadians. Is this the Caribbean we live in? Where one nationality disses another and takes the other for granted? I do know that many other Caribbean people dislike, grudge and badmind us Bajans because we have pride and respect ourselves and to be honest, a higher standard of living. I must admit, some bajans do not like Rihanna - they just like to criticise everything she does. No one is perfect, Jamaicans aren't bajans aren't nor Rihanna. So why all the negativity and country bashing?

I have found over the ten years of being a reggae artist in Barbados dat once you come from another island you can get away with almost anything,while if you are a son of the soil you get penalised by the media harshly.I'm presently in Monteal Canada pushing my music cause i really felt no love in my homeland by the "bigga heads" of entertainment.My good citizens love me and hope for me to do well but in my heart i know no matter how much i try to please there was a force on the darkside trying to pull me down and discredit me.Still i am going to consider myself as a ambassador/representative of my country/people.I've been asked for 2yrs now if i'm gonna be on "Reggae on the Hill" and when i said "no" people looked at me confused,cause they know i'm undoubtedly the best reggae artist in the island.It hurt me to see i could'nt get a spot on the card dat i left the island.So injustice around the artist in "Bim"(Barbados) is nuttin new.Pick sense from what i wrote..Bless

I AM A BAJAN AND YES I MUST ADMIT DAT SOME BAJANS ACT LIKE THEY'RE SO SPECIAL AND HONESTLY RIHANNA IS GETTING WHAT SHE DESERVES BECAUSE SHE DOESN'T HAVE A GOOD ATTITUDE JUST LIKE DA AVERAGE BAJAN MY BIGGEST CONCERN IS DA FAGS DAT WANT TO TAKE OVER BARBADOS DAT'S MY MAJOR CONCERN NOT RIHANNA.


Posted by: Tanya on May 9, 2009 08:25 PM

Her star just keep diminishing especially with her recent nude pics, such a talent and its all going wrong for her. Where were her parents? Why she couldn't date a local guy. I saw the awful pics and said my God this is her country's young ambassador. What beenie did is tiny in comparison to what she has done to herself taking nude pics...knowing the important role she plays in her country...
