duppyman

A insult for a battyman(homosexual male) of jamaican roots. A duppy is a ghost by definition, and also a racial insult for white people but in this context this refers to a man which should be dead for insulting the community, insulting the earth, and paying no respect to elders such a marcus and selassie.

I nuh see a dead man dem
a duppyman dem
mi nah want nuffin wid dem
di fire bunn dem
dey don con dem
