Mad Patience says prostitutes deserve praise too

Sex workers are usually ostracised by society but at least one entertainer has come forward to defend the profession.

4th Genna recording artiste, Mad Patience, is currently promoting his song Back Road, declaring that had it not been for 'ladies of the night', many men would not possess half the sexual prowess they boast about.

The deejay, who revealed that he is now referred to as the 'Back Road Boss', said that despite the possibility of a negative blow back, he believes it is full time Jamaica begins to recognise prostitutes for their service because "It's a part of the society".

"Prostitution a gwaan long before me and yuh born, so anuh nothing new me a sing. Me just a highlight it because yuh affi big up dem type a girl deh because without dem girl deh, nuff man woulda still be virgin up to today," he said.

He confessed to having been sexually satisfied by women on the infamous sex strip at some point in his life. "Of course me visit round there (Back Road), come on man. Me a sing from my experiences and other friends experience. I am singing from everybody perspective weh experience round deh," he said.

Well aware of the possible backlash he may face for the song, the entertainer says he is prepared for any negativity because he knows a lot of the critics will speak from a guilty conscience.

"People a go say things. Me know the backlash a go come because a nuh everybody a go up for it. But although dem a go disagree, nuff a dem know deep down a true me a talk inna di song, a nuff man a go Back Road right now as we speak," he said.

The song was only released a few days ago but the deejay says the track has already been creating quite a buzz.

"Whether good or bad innu, from people a talk, yuh know say di song gone a road. Me did stand out already but since the song release, me stand out more. A me make Back Road hot again, enuh," he said.
