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?
Vybz Kartel is an entertainer and can do shit like that and feel comfortable with it. But an a real note not for me.
IS THAT WHAT MJ DID.IM JUST ASKING.BLACK WANT 2B WHITE.WHITE WANT 2B BLACK.(SMH)DO MEXICANS WANT 2B HISPANIC.IM JUST ASKING.(LOLO)
Addi di Bleacha!
Kartel is pathetic…. he knows that bleaching is something that is viewed as stupid here in the caribbean, People despise bleachers, jus because he’s a start doesn’t mean him doing it is ok.
Bleach or no bleach its the same results i cant stomach him either way!
mexicans ARE hispanic O_o but vybez looks like death smfh
If that what he wants leave him, alone if this will make him feel better why not. I admit it doent look good but each to there own. He with out no sin cast the first stone.
if he bleach that is his business
my complection is better than every mi nah go bleach it out no it better yes ir better than ever do try to be something ur not jus cause somebody else doin it u jus gonna look more stupid than that person failur kartel failur lookin like dead rice lol smh
It saddens me the day Jamaicans accept a bleacher as a top figure of entertainment and say to each’s own…next a next top artist will admit to sucking wood and everyone’s going to say the same? to each’s own?…I think this is going too far…and for those that say it’s like white people tanning or whites wanna be black, couldn’t be further then the truth…white people tan, not blacken…whites do not want to be black…and tan is temporary beaching permanent…and last but not least, if white people jump off a bridge does that make it right for blacks to follow?
If Kartel wants to bleach that’s his business. People having headache, loosing sleep, chatting, laughing goes to show that he’s a VIP. Addi di teacha.
Kartel Bleaching, who nuh like see it, jump off a Cliff. Big up yuhself Vybz Kartel. Straight!
I think he looks sick. He looks like a dead man. I think it is sad when white people go tan crazy to be like us. But it is even worst when a black person destroys their skin. He needs some counseling, church, a hug something. I will pray for you honey and all that bleach their skin. Black is Beautiful!!!!! Lets not forget that.
If you ask me kartel is a hypocrate. He used to slam niggas dat used to bleach. No all of a sudden he want to bleach. Him soon start ram batty and nyam pum pum
LOL, The biggest joke is on all you people than run round like he some God or something, Jamaicans used to set trend and have certain morals now they just comin like clowns, imagine you probably got niggas that are realer in the UK than jamaica……u can sing, u can dance but when all’s said and done your education will stand before anything else, this nigga a joke and he gna lead so many jamaicans straight down into jokeville..loooooooooooooool

i think vybz can do whatever he wishes as long as he still gives us great music
people just hating. I dispise bleaching but i mean is ur skin u can do what u want with it.
vbyz kartel is going to died
Aside from his music, that is a real shame. I am not dark skinned but the most beautiful thing to me is dark skinned people… the darker the better. But if he likes it, oh well…
blood. d man look like a ghost, rell old looking now dan.
kartel sweety u looking like a living dead but i still love ur a lil bit but wan u doh like d black ness awah hahahahahaha lmao lafam lolzzz
i find he do shit because he had good skin and black is beauty he is for every thin he was agaisnt that is shitttttttttttt
Dude lyk one of them Living dead monstors in a horror movie
I find it funny that you all have something to say about the situation. Yes, bleaching is his own personal buisness BUT, being a hypocrite is just as bad. You cannot bash people that bleach then go bleach yourself. Now that he has done that, he’s going to lose alot of fans over this. And that is the true result behind this tragedy.
de gyal dem they love d bleach out face!! and he right u go boy
Dem a BLEACH, Dem a bleach out them skin, dem a bleach, fe look like a brownin… Black skin is beauty. Like silk velvet smooth. Care the skin and it looks good. He looks like a cancer patient, he looked healthy before
People this is just a sign of many how we as black people still got the shackles on I dont know why yall surprised have you looked at most music videos and movies
I hope those who left comments got afros and no make-up no tips to wig or weave on and dudes dont have the s curl or wave grease the man probably just wanted tatoos but with his old skin he just couldnt see them lol.
BLEACHING IS HIS BUSINESS YES BUT.. IF HE THINKS THE GIRL DEM LOVE IT WE ALL KNOW THAT IS NOT SO..HE DJ ABOUT WHY MAN A PREE HIM HA! HE’S AN ENTERTAINER OFCOURSE HE KNOWS EVERYBODY GONNA PREE HIM AND HIS MAIN GOAL IS TO GET ATTENTION ANY WAY POSSIBLE IN ORDER TO BOOST HIS CAREER ONCE AGAIN.ITS SHAMEFUL THAT BLACK PEOPLE LOOK UP TO THIS AND MIGHT JUST FOLLOW WHICH OBVIOUSLY HE WOULDNT MIND, CALLING HIMSELF DANCEHALL HERO KARTEL WILL BE REMEMBERED AS DANCEHALLS DEMON! THE ILLEST ON THE MIC TO EVER PULL OFF THIS DEGRADING BIZARRE CRAP! I PERSONALLY FEEL THE DEVIL IS BEHIND HIS LYRICAL SKILLS AND THE FOOLISHNESS HE KEEPS UP AT THE SAME TIME.
I don’t care what anybody says. Vybz Kartel looked better dark. With this bleaching he looks sick.
I am no longer supporting his music and him as an artist because behavior like this pushes colorism in our community. It’s pathetic and I’m disturbed by his behavior. As a half-Guyanese and half-Jamaican woman who is dark brown, I have to say that mentalities like this are what holds the community back. Peace!
HE FILZ GUG WITH JA NEW SKIN LET HIM BE WANT HE NEED NOT WANT PEOPLE THINK IS GUD FOR HIM
