Neutrality[edit]

"The neutrality of this article is disputed."

could someone explain the dispute? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Oyd11 (talk • contribs) .

I put the template up; the problem comes from the way some sentences are worded, such as "Ranks' wicked rhyming style". I also think we should be careful of peacock terms, like "became something of an icon" or "aggressive lyrical delivery".

I don't think the cleanup template is necessary though, I will remove it. Thanks, IronC hris | (talk) 11:19, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It looks pretty neutral to me now so I have removed the dispute tag. John Eden 12:28, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ranks and Islam[edit]

Cutty Ranks was also crucial to the rise of Islam in Jamaica and some say the modern world. He is widely regarded as a prophet who some say may be the equivalent of Mohammed.
