Why do you think Raggae is always criticized?

[Toby]

I have kept wondering why most Raggea songs are being criticized and the only logical and possible conclusion that I have arrived at was because they always try as much as possible to expose the bad government policies, bad religious practices, and talk on racism. Some critize reggae artists because of their excessive use of Cannabis.

Some critize reggae artists because of their excessive use of Cannabis.

All sorts of people in many genres of music use drugs.

and talk on racism.

I suppose that relates to the association of Marcus Garvey and all that, but I don't think, for instance, Bob Marley was a fanatic on that.

bad religious practices,

I don't know how many Reggae listeners are hardcore Rastafarians. Why would it be relevant to enjoying and/or playing the music?
