Homophobia
According to The Jamaica Online Star, during a performance at the Grand Gala on Tuesday, 6 August 2013, Queen Ifrica made statements glorifying male straightness and heterosexual marriage. The Jamaica Forum of Lesbians, All-Sexuals and Gays (JFLAG) expressed disappointment over anti-gay statements stating that her sentiments are an example of the constant prejudice that is being allowed to take prominence on the national stage in Jamaica. They also stated that the remarks she made bears some resemblance to statements fellow reggae recording artiste Tony Rebel made at the same event last year. Her response was, "Like myself, I think they are exercising their right to speak for what they believe in. However, I think it is unfair for them to incriminate me when there is no incrimination there. I simply spoke for what I believed in. They should simply speak from what they believe in but not try to tarnish my character in the process." She went on to say, "I never caused the beheading of anyone. If I did then there would be a problem. Until a member of the gay community can give birth from their union they should not be abrasive to heterosexuals, because they came from that union."
The musical was first seen in a workshop production at New York Theatre Workshop in 1993. This same Off-Broadway theatre was also the musical's initial home following its official 1996 opening. The show's creator, Jonathan Larson, died suddenly of an aortic dissection, believed to have been caused by undiagnosed Marfan syndrome, the night before the Off-Broadway premiere. The show won a Pulitzer Prize, and the production was a hit. The musical moved to Broadway's larger Nederlander Theatre on April 29, 1996.
On Broadway, Rent gained critical acclaim and won a Tony Award for Best Musical among other awards. The Broadway production closed on September 7, 2008 after a 12-year run of 5,123 performances, the eleventh longest-running Broadway show. The production grossed over $280 million.
Chester Hamilton (Sidney Blackmer) is sent to prison for non-payment of alimony to Phyllis Van Kamp (Verree Teasdale). Hamilton's valet, Oswald Groggs (Charles Ruggles), uses his boss’s reservations at an exclusive resort to go on vacation under the assumed identity of wealthy eccentric "Sir Oswald". Phyllis tries to marry "Sir Oswald" for his money. When Oswald seems to fall for her, the question is who will be left standing at the altar. A secretary (Phyllis Barry) and a reporter (Ray Walker) witness all these shenanigans.

Ventrice Morgan, whose stage name is Queen Ifrica, is a reggae singer and disc jockey from the hills above Montego Bay, Jamaica. She is the daughter of ska music legend Derrick Morgan but was raised by her mother and stepfather.
A Rastafarian by faith, she is known for her work in the community and for writing songs about deeply personal subject matter in songs such as Below the Waist and Daddy. However, the subject matter of her work also has expressed homophobia, such as in Keep It To Yourself.
Homophobia
According to The Jamaica Online Star, during a performance at the Grand Gala on Tuesday, 6 August 2013, Queen Ifrica made statements glorifying male straightness and heterosexual marriage. The Jamaica Forum of Lesbians, All-Sexuals and Gays (JFLAG) expressed disappointment over anti-gay statements stating that her sentiments are an example of the constant prejudice that is being allowed to take prominence on the national stage in Jamaica. They also stated that the remarks she made bears some resemblance to statements fellow reggae recording artiste Tony Rebel made at the same event last year. Her response was, "Like myself, I think they are exercising their right to speak for what they believe in. However, I think it is unfair for them to incriminate me when there is no incrimination there. I simply spoke for what I believed in. They should simply speak from what they believe in but not try to tarnish my character in the process." She went on to say, "I never caused the beheading of anyone. If I did then there would be a problem. Until a member of the gay community can give birth from their union they should not be abrasive to heterosexuals, because they came from that union."
Prelude: Are you ready, oo oo oo ooo (x4) When the roll is called out, I'll be standing tall up To face the darkest and the hardest of times. We'll be taking care of, all the children thereof, But if it's required we'll be on the frontline. Chorus You can call me by my name I am ready to roll; Once the rules remain the same How the story's been told; Call me anytime, never cop out, Lioness is on the rise Don't you ever have doubt. Never say never, willingness forever to fight, and be strong Once it's for better i'll every letter and moving right along And i'll roll with the punches, accept the changes; Work with the formula, do what I have to do. Chorus And call be by my name I am ready to roll; Once the rules remain the same How the story's been told; Call me anytime, never cop out, Lioness is on the rise Don't you ever have doubt. When you are willing to serve, we have room to observe To see if you can walk the walk you talk. Let me give you my word, my voice must be heard. Bravery is the beast of my heart. Chorus Call be by my name I am ready to roll; Once the rules remain the same How the story's been told; Call me anytime, never cop out, Lioness is on the rise Don't you ever have doubt. Repeat vs 1 When the roll is called out, I'll be standing tall up To face the darkest and the hardest of times. We'll be taking care of, all the children thereof, But if it's required we'll be on the frontline. Chorus You can call me by my name I am ready to roll; Once the rules remain the same How the story's been told; Call me anytime, never cop out, Lioness is on the rise Don't you ever have doubt. Call be by my name I am ready to roll; Once the rules remain the same How the story's been told; Call me anytime, never cop out, Lioness is on the rise
