Although the ad itself was not meant to provoke any negative reaction, Barrington Levy who’s song Murderer is used in the ad has been outraged and concept ““They got permission to use my song… they didn’t say what they were going to do with my song but if they did say they were going to use my song to burn my country flag… that would be a total disrespect to my thing and my country and my people… not only burning it but trampling it like that is a total disrespect,”
