Dancehall singer Vybz Kartel has significantly lightened his skin…a move he equates to white people going tanning!

“This is my new image,” Kartel said in a recent interview. “You can expect the unexpected. I feel comfortable with black people lightening their skin. They want a different look. It’s tantamount to white people getting a sun tan.”

Vybz has a new line of cake soap that he’s pushing, the product he claims is responible for the bleaching. But yet, fellow dancehall artist Bounty Killer slammed this statement by saying his mother has used cake soap and it has yet to bleach her skin, and believes that Kartel is using something stronger to do the bleaching.

Wow. I don’t know what to say. I think people should be proud of what God gave them and don’t need to change it! What do you think?
