My question is could those no-shows have to do with visa entry problems? I would appeal! Remember last month, BTH was refused entry here in Canada because of their violent lyrics. Immigration Canada is battling gang problems in Vancouver and Toronto. They won't even let Eminem in either. Jay-Z and others have criminal records but they can come in thru pardon waivers BUT if your lyrics are violent, NO ENTRY! What can I say? I don't run the borders. There are too many guns flowing in here from the U.S and the Canadians are not amused. These folks here are kind, compassionate great human beings. I love Canada but I think rappers should tone lyrics down with respect to violence. These boys are talented though! Below is my prior story.........
This immigration thing is getting serious. With all the gang activity and homicides in Toronto and Vancouver, the government is not taking chances anymore. After being denied entry into Canada for a five city tour earlier this week, Cleveland bred rap group Bone Thugs-N-Harmony have announced the tour dates for their upcoming U.S. tour. The group revealed that Canadian immigration officials denied them entry into the country because they deemed their music too violent. Remember last summer when Nas was denied a concert venue because of the crowd that would show up and how to control them after? The group has taken the setback in stride and will launch their two month U.S. tour in Portland on February 6th and wrap it up in Connecticut on March 30th. The group also has an additional date in Alabama in June.
