This does not surprise me at all. Last time we tried to get a visa for a roots veteran artist he told me the officer in charge of their case seemed to be waiting for or insinuating a bribe. It is ridiculous how Jamaicans are treated "guilty until proven innocent (by paying a lot of money for permits)" compared to performers from , for example UK or other "1st world" countries.

If that's true, then Jamaica is not to blame. The last time I checked, the "officer in charge" of securing a US visa would be a member of the Sate Department of the USofA, the ultimate "1st world" country....]]> Daniel SNWMF Phorum 2013 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 14:30:37 -0800 http://snwmf.com/phorum/read.php?1,322346,322351#msg-322351 Re: State Department, JA Artists, Visas & Bribes http://snwmf.com/phorum/read.php?1,322346,322351#msg-322351 DubOrganic SNWMF Phorum 2013 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 14:19:13 -0800 http://snwmf.com/phorum/read.php?1,322346,322346#msg-322346 State Department, JA Artists, Visas & Bribes http://snwmf.com/phorum/read.php?1,322346,322346#msg-322346 www.billboard.com]]]> ulotrichi SNWMF Phorum 2013 Fri, 08 Feb 2013 12:54:16 -0800
