På grund av att många av dancehallens texter så ofta innehåller slackness (vulgära uttryck), antigaylyrik och marijuanahyllningar spelades den ursprungligen inte ens på jamaicansk radio. Den framfördes i stället genom sound systems (gatuhörnsdiskotek) i Jamaicas kåkstäder, och inomhus i stora danslokaler, dancehalls, eftersom det där var lättare att förhindra att minderåriga släpptes in. Än idag är dancehall en mycket jamaicansk företeelse trots vissa internationella framgångar. En förklaring är att den delvis eller helt framförs på jamaicansk patwa och inte på en engelska som förstås internationellt. Källa: Wikipedia
