SoulAJoyEnt. and Peagodon Records present Empress Kuanna sending out this warning to all perverts and dutty man dem called “Pedophile Warning”. The song was released in June 2021 and addresses the subject of Jamaica’s critical issue with pedophilia, affecting countless children and their communities. Reports highlight alarming cases of child sexual abuse, often within homes and communities where victims should feel safest.
Socioeconomic factors, secrecy, and cultural stigmas contribute to the issue, leading many cases to go unreported or unaddressed. The government and various organizations are working to strengthen child protection laws, increase public awareness, and provide support systems for survivors. However, continued focus on education, enforcement, and community involvement is essential to protect Jamaica’s youth and combat this pervasive issue.
