Homophobia

[edit]

An article about Yellowman on allmusic states slackness typically includes homophobia. Does anyone have can references about this issue. Article is here http://www.allmusic.com/artist/yellowman-mn0000681340/biography — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jonpatterns (talkcontribs) 14:31, 19 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Slackness covers quite a broad range of lyrical themes. There are a lot of 'slack' deejays who have focused almost exclusively on sexual topics and/or themes of violence - they don't all have homophobic lyrics. Yellowman doesn't strike me as one of those that typify the homophobic side of dancehall. --Michig (talk) 14:42, 19 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the information and giving me a fuller idea of the slackness style. Jonpatterns (talk) 16:13, 19 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 3 May 2023

[edit]
The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
The result of the move request was: moved. Consensus that the Jamaican music topic is not the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for "slackness".
I find no consensus as to whether the primary title Slackness should go to the DAB or become a WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT to Tension (physics). In the absence of consensus on that point, I find it best to assume WP:NOPRIMARY and use the primary title for the DAB page.

– Seems an unlikely primary topic. Slackness should probably be a primary redirect to Slacker or Work ethic. 162 etc. (talk) 16:00, 3 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I added Slackness (disambiguation) to the move request, since it has now been created add has now been referenced multiple times, including by the nominator who supports moving it. Steel1943 (talk) 18:12, 5 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
