Shaggy Said We Could Stop ISIS By Playing His Music In Its Facilities

by Adam Pliskin

ISIS is plaguing the Middle East, and no one really knows how to stop its reign of terror.

Luckily, one unlikely candidate recently stepped forward with a plan to stop the terrorist organization.

That candidate is none other than reggae artist Shaggy.

Shaggy claims if his songs were played for the members of ISIS, they would put down their weapons and stop all this killing.

He cited songs like "Boombastic" and "It Wasn't Me" as potent remedies for violence.

Shaggy said,

ISIS can go f*ck themselves. That's some crazy sh*t what they're doing. It's horrible, man. I can't see... I don't get that much hate. I just don't get that level of evil. I can't understand it... If you're able to cut a man's head off, you're sick. But right music evokes emotion. So, if they're listening to Shaggy music or reggae music, they're not going to want to cut somebody's head off.

Shaggy might not seem like an expert on this sort of thing, but he did serve as a Marine in the First Gulf War, so maybe he knows more than one would assume.

The 90s reggae artist continued,

There're two thing you want to do when you listen to reggae: You get somebody pregnant, or you're f*cking high. High people don't want to kill nothing; they want to love. They need to bag some Jamaican weed and distribute it amongst ISIS. I guarantee there won't be any more wars out there.

Amen, Shaggy. Amen.
