Stop Murder Music

Stop Murder Music was a campaign to oppose Jamaican artists who produced music that promoted violence against LGBT people through their lyrics. The campaign primarily focused on dancehall and reggae genre, with artists such as Buju Banton, Bounty Killer, and the Bobo Ashanti Rastafarians Sizzla and Capleton being targeted.

The campaign was jointly run by OutRage!, the Black Gay Men's Advisory Group, and J-Flag. The campaign caused an estimated £2.5 million loss to artists and promoters.
