Homophobic Singer's Tour Canceled

A Jamaican reggae star's U.S. tour was canceled recently after several gay activists raised concerns about his homophobic lyrics.

Renegade Productions, which was in charge of Capleton's West Coast tour, announced the cancellation on its website. Another artist, Cocoa Tea, was scheduled to tour with him. The tour was set to begin on Monday at the Ragga Muffins festivals in Long Beach and Oakland, Calif., but Capleton was removed from the lineup.
