[h1]I just saw this dude perform a month or so ago. And he was talking about the hypocrisy of government, how the government murders and oppresses people. I guess he shoulda been talking about the hypocrisy of artists and how they say one thing and do another. Sucks. [/h1]http://www.google.com/hos...6iWw7HcA-IycAZQD9CJ85AG1

MIAMI - Federal authorities say Jamaican reggae star Buju Banton attempted to buy cocaine from an undercover officer in Florida.
Banton, whose real name is Mark Anthony Myrie, has been in U.S. federal custody in Miami since Thursday. He faces a charge of conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute more than five kilograms of cocaine.
According to court documents, Banton and two others contacted a police informant last week about buying cocaine in Sarasota. Drug Enforcement Administration agents say Banton negotiated the purchase and was observed inspecting cocaine offered by the undercover officer.
The other men were arrested Thursday when they allegedly attempted to buy the drugs.
An e-mail to Banton's independent record label was not immediately returned Monday.
