Trojan Riddim’s artistes in mixed reaction to outrage Article by June 4, 2021 The artists who took part in the explicit Trojan Riddim video – now the most controversial various artists track in Barbadian popular music – have given varying reactions to criticism from Prime Minister Mia Mottley, church leaders and the business community. While some, including Leadpipe have issued expressed apologies, others like Rickey Lil Rick Reid, have described the creation of “diverse” content as simply part of his job. In a statement released on Thursday, the veteran soca and dancehall artiste said it was unfortunate that the video glorifying gun violence and gang warfare was being circulated in the midst of a turbulent period in the country.
