Ahead of April 20, Buju Banton is asking fans which rapper he should collaborate with on a song to commemorate 4/20, a day observed every year, where cannabis producers, consumers, and advocates celebrate and smoke marijuana.
Via his official Instagram account, the Gargamel shared a question with his over 1.4 million followers. “If mi make a 4/20 song with any rapper, who would you want it to be,” he wrote.
Snoop Dog, Wiz Khalifa, J Cole, Busta Rhymes, Rick Ross, and Kendrick Lamar are among the recurring names in the comment section.
For many years, April 20 has been the day to celebrate all things marijuana and to call for the loosening of what many say are outdated laws that ban the substance many countries.
Long before the popularity of 4/20, Peter Tosh, Bob Marley, and countless others have advocated for the legalization of Marijuana through music.
In 2015, Jamaican lawmakers passed an act to decriminalise small amounts of marijuana.
