Jillani who is crying said  a lot of life have been lost over the past few weeks in West Kingston and other surrounding communities “We must as a nation say enough is enough as we cannot continue to slaughter Men, Women and children. turning a blind eye to the problem will only result in heartache.”

The Recording artiste said it is not clear at this time but reports am getting from families and friends are that criminals involved in an ongoing gang feud in the division. Trading bullets, shooting people like pigeon causing a halt in activities in the area.
Since the start of 2016, Sixty-three women have died violently already in Australia or even more as we speak, Woman and Children being rape and murder in Africa, Jamaica, America, United Kingdom, and the rest of the world. Men who hate women so much they kill them with axes, burn them, stab them, beat them to death. They kill their children too or otherwise ruin their lives. 

I fear more than ever for the women and the girls I know.

“Absolutely no parent or guardian should have to endure the agonizing pain of having to bury their loved ones under these gruesome and heart-rending circumstances,”

Ruffi-Ann found at the wrong place, Wrong time


Donovan Joseph— partner of dancehall entertainer Ruffian — said he has made contact with the singjay, who is still listed as missing on the Jamaica Constabulary Force’s website since Saturday, September 3.

According to Joseph, Ruffian (given name is Sharon Peterkin) is currently being held at Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York.

She had contacted me to say that she is not missing, but is being held at the detention centre. She gave me her detention number and didn’t say much except that she is not being charged with an offence, and was held with others in a vehicle. It’s a matter of her being at the wrong place at the wrong time,” he told the Jamaica Observer yesterday.

Joseph said since her detention, the singjay has already made two court appearances and will be returning to court next month. He did not say how she came to be in the United States, but said a family member reported her missing to local authorities when he came home in Greater Portmore, St Catherine, and was unable to locate her.

Ruffian emerged on the reggae/dancehall scene in the 1990s. She has released songs, including the Steelie & Cleevie-produced Stick To Yuh Man as well as the 2009 social commentary Save the Juvenile.

She subsequently released a 16-track debut album entitled Save the Juvenile, which was a collaborative effort with reggae journeyman Max Romeo.

Angels Watching Over Me And With God’s Will And My Determination I Will Walk Again



Twelve years after his life-threatening experience, Real VI revisits the incident in the song Angels Watching Over Me.

EVEN though shots from gunmen 12 years ago left him paralysed and confined to a wheelchair, singer Real VI says his musical dreams are far from shattered.

“In this single, I just sum up the entire ordeal in three minutes. It’s about getting a setback in life, but rising above it despite the obstacles. I really hope that my story will be an inspiration to others,” he said.

Reflecting on the 2004 shooting, Real VI said he started the morning like any other.
“I got up and was sweeping my yard and went next door to borrow my neighbour’s rake. After entering, I realised that there were gunmen hiding out on his premises, and I guess they were startled as I was, so they fired at me,” he recalled.

The 39-year-old artiste, whose given name is Cosmo Watson, said the bullets pierced his neck and spinal chord.

“There were days when I would just lay there and think about what my destiny would be. I sometimes wonder if I would make it out alive or not and what have I done to deserve such an ordeal. But God was still in the vessel and He has major plans for me. I am still doing therapy, and with God’s will and my determination I will walk again,” he said.

Angels Watching Over Me is produced by Earthsource Records out of New York. The label also produced

Successful, another of Real VI’s new songs.

Growing up in Seaview Gardens in Kingston, Real VI attended Tivoli Gardens Comprehensive High School. At age 14, he recorded

Evil Path, his debut single, for Sugar Minott’s Youthman Promotions. This was followed by other singles such as

Ain’t No Stopping Us,

Rich Mi Sey, Baby Girl, and Question.

New Single And Slang, Titled Ugly Up Di Counter Creating A buzz



Up-and-coming dancehall artiste Fyah Torche is promoting his new single and slang, titled 'Ugly Up Di Counter', featuring Big Star.

The single was produced by DJ Speng of Calico Mix Production and has been getting favourable feedback in the dancehall circle. The artiste explained how he came up with the slang.
"It was my birthday and I was at my friend's bar in Golden Heights. We were drinking liquor of all kinds and the slang just came up 'ugly up di counter'. 

From there, it was like it became viral and everybody began to say it, so the next step was that we made it into a song and took it to the dancehall, and it is catching on with everybody real fast," said Fyah Torche.

Fyah Torche also said the slang is gaining momentum in New York since the label which produced the accompanying record has been executing it's own promotions.
"I have been doing street promotions and the next step is to go to commercial radio, yu nuh. One step at a time," he said.

Pastor Proud Of Mr Vegas, And Want Beenie, Bounty To Inspire Positive Change In The Nation's Youths.


Renowned minister of religion, Reverend Herro Blair Jr, said he is actively praying for a number of dancehall artistes, who he hopes will soon turn their lives over to the Lord, and influence the nation's misguided youths to follow suit.

The reverend said dancehall artiste Mr Vegas, who recently announced that he has taken up the Christian walk, was among the list of dancehall artistes he is praying for. Beenie Man, Bounty Killer, D'Angel, and Shabba are also holding high spots on his list.

"I'm very proud of Mr Vegas. I've been following him personally for the last three years and I've been waiting for this moment. In fact, I've been praying, and I've been anticipating it. There are a few others that I'm personally praying for," Blair revealed .

original list

He said that he has been praying for various dancehall artistes for about 26 years, and Shabba is the only person on the original list who has not yet turned his life of the Lord.

"Back in the 80s, I was a Junior Tucker fan, and I prayed for him. I prayed for Chevelle Franklyn. I prayed for Lieutenant Stitchie. I prayed for Papa San. Shabba still hasn't come around, but his mother says he's coming," Blair said.

positive change

He explained that he does not necessarily want the artistes on his current list to become Christian entertainers, but for them to give their lives to the Lord and continue using their influence to inspire positive change in the nation's youths.

"These guys (artistes) have been able to influence Jamaican men over the years, so my prayer has been that when they get saved they sing positive music to transform the nation, not necessarily gospel music, but positive songs that appeal to everyone," Blair explained.

Both Beenie Man and D'Angel said that they are grateful for the Blair's prayers.

"I embrace all the prayers that he is giving, because it's all about positiveness. Prayer is the strongest thing on the earth, so if somebody is praying for you to be better and be stronger in anything that you're doing, I embrace that 100 per cent," Beenie Man said.

"I am a man of God. I love God in my own way, and I pray to God everyday."

He, however, said he has no plans of becoming a baptised Christian.

D'Angel, who buried her recently, also expressed gratitude.

"I just want to say thanks to the Reverend and ask him to continue keeping me in his prayers. I am a God-fearing person and someone that is very influential among the youths, mainly from Spanish Town, but I've always had challenges that I have to overcome," she said.

We Can’t Continue Like This Jamaica, Violence And Crime Must End Artiste Said


International recording artiste Mr Vegas has decided to stage a prayer vigil Yesterday in Luke Lane, downtown Kingston between 4:30 and 7 p.m. in memory of Demario Whyte, a two-year-old boy who was allegedly shot and killed in the area.

The dancehall artiste who recently decided to give his life to Jesus, said he is keeping the vigil to send a strong message to criminals that they must stop murdering the innocent youths of Jamaica.

“The life of an innocent two-year-old child was recently snuffed out by heartless gunmen, what they did to little Demario is barbaric. We can’t continue like this Jamaica, something has to be done we have to send a message to them to let them know that they must stop killing our children,” said Vegas. "Jesus said 'Suffer the little children to come unto to me and I will give them rest'. We are doing this Vigil for Demario who’s now resting in the arms of the saviour."

Vegas appeal to members of the public to come out on time for the vigil and bring candles and flowers.

“I want everyone to come on time, take candles and flowers, let's send a strong message to killers; it’s time to let them know that the violence and crime must end,” he said.

I See Nothing Wrong I Did Not Disrespect My Flag'


Danielle D.I. fights back amid backlash

Seemingly bothered by the backlash she received online for painting the Jamaican flag on her body in celebration of country's success at the recently concluded Olympics, dancehall artiste Danielle D.I. is now attempting to put the brakes on bullies who have been attacking her on social media.

Following Jamaica's Olympic team's outstanding performance in Rio, Brazil, the controversial deejay had her body painted in the black, green and gold of the Jamaican flag. That, however, did not go down well with many persons, some of whom said she had disrespected the flag.

But Danielle D.I. is convinced she did not go too far with her body painting. fully covered

"I see nothing wrong with what I am doing, and I do not believe my photos were distasteful. My private parts were fully covered, and I am living my truth and showing love to my country," she said.

"There is no way in heaven I would even try to disrespect my country and my flag. I proudly wear my Jamaican sash throughout the world. It is a matter of opinion because what is distasteful to one is artistic, creative, and fresh to another. I see absolutely nothing wrong with it. At the end of the day, I was fully covered and was wearing underwear. So I think there is nothing wrong with art expression."

According to the Rebel singer, critics are biased and selective of whom they target, while international stars are given the freedom to live as they see it fit.

"I see girls like Rihanna and Nicki Minaj pushing boundaries and creating controversy. They are the hot girls of the world, and they have been making history without planning it," Danielle D.I. told THE STAR.

Danielle D.I., who holds dual citizenship, also went viral on July 4 after she posted a photo on her Instagram page sporting a full body painting of the American flag. The image was one of the top trending images on Instagram globally, and was later reported by some viewers who felt the photo was too edgy

Reggae Artiste Nesbeth Received Death Threats

Top Reggae artiste Nesbeth is said to have received death threats in the United Kingdom where he is now on a tour.
According to Nesbeth’s publicist Raymond ‘Shadow’ Small, the threats are aimed at the artiste, his children and management.
“I am very disturbed by the whole ordeal and extremely concerned for the safety and lives of my team and especially my children,” Nesbeth said in a media release issued today.
The My Dream singer was reportedly sent the death threats via several voice notes to the phone of his U.K-based manager, Shanika Dobson.
According to a media release, the persons sending the threats said “no matter where they are or try to go they are going to be killed”.
Nesbeth was booked to perform at concerts in London, Birmingham and Luton. However, he did not perform at one of the shows due to what his management team describes as major contractual breaches.
Nesbeth is slated to return to the Jamaica later this week for assignments in New York and Toronto Canada over the Labour Day weekend

Boxing legend, Muhammad Ali, has died at age 74.

Ali was not just a boxer but a civil rights champion who was dubbed the greatest and spent his career doing nothing to live down that moniker.

the former world heavyweight champion who died in Phoenix, Arizona last Friday, visited Jamaica on two occasions, in the 1970s and 1980s.

Ali’s first visit to Jamaica was in 1974. He came as a member of a delegation of the Nation of Islam, headed by Minister James Muhammad, younger brother of Elijah Muhammad, founder of the Chica bygo-based organisation.

The delegation also included Minister Louis Farrakhan.
They took a one-month tour of Jamaica as guests of Prime Minister Michael Manley.

Ali received the Key to the City of Kingston at Jamaica’s National Stadium.
The trip was especially important as it not only followed Ali regaining his world heavyweight title from George Foreman in Zaire, Africa, after Foreman had won it from Joe Frazier in Kingston in 1973,

Prince died at age 57, Doctor Say he was a drug addict

Singer Prince has died at his Paisley Park estate in Minnesota at the age of 57, his publicist tells the Associated Press (AP).

The Purple Rain artiste was hospitalised last week after his plane for was forced to make an emergency landing in Moline, Ill.

He was released a few hours later. Reports are that the iconic singer, actor, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist was battling a bad case of the flu.

a man has come out saying late pop singer Prince was a drug addict. Name only as Doctor D

The man said he sold drugs to Prince between 1984 and 2008.

Doctor D claims Prince would spend up to $40,000 (£27,700) on six month supplies of highly addictive Dilaudid pills and Fentanyl patches.

He made the revelation to the UK based media entity, MailOnline.

“I first met Prince in 1984 while he was filming the movie Purple Rain and he was already majorly addicted to opiates - I didn’t hook him on drugs. He was already a really heavy user," he said.

But Prince did not just use any drug, he specialised in what he took and for specific reasons.

"As far as I knew he never took heroin - as that would leave you out of it for days whereas Dilaudid gives you an energy buzz as well as making you feel relaxed - so he preferred it,"

Fans Claim Chronixx Diss Kartel Calling Him a Cannibal

Reggae artiste Chronixx is again under fire on social media. This time at the hands of Vybz Kartel's die hard fans, who claim Chronixx was disrespectful to the incarcerated artiste by classifying him as a cannibal.

Chronixx who made the comment during a recent interview about crime and Jamaican music, has been relatively missing from the Jamaican media since his controversial 'waste man' statement that was directed at United States President Barack Obama last year.

In the recent interview in which he made strong criticisms of Vybz Kartel, Chronixx also lashed the media for its tendency to highlight negative issues.

"A man will write an article about how bad this generation is all the time. But how many articles will you see about the good? We have become a very negative driven people. Vybz Kartel has done a lot of good things in life, I must say so. It's just that we pull the negative out of each other and we pay people for the bad," he said.

"Gangsterism, Cannibalism ... because Vybz Kartel overtime became a cannibal. When you listen his music it was very cannibalistic. It became so pleasant to the human like there is a thing in us that craves chopping up people and beheading people and cut out a man inside."

Chronixx also brought Vybz Kartel's single Kill Dem All And Done under the microscope, selling the idea that the content was not positive for youth, yet they crave such material.

"When you see how youth react to a song that says go and kill everybody, kill dem all and done ... and everybody excited," he said, laughing.

Chronixx's comments were seemingly meant to enlighten listeners. However, as expected, fans of Vybz Kartel decided to attack the artiste.

These are a few of the comment posted on Facebook

Lose off a him from him call President  Obama a waste man....I don't see Kartel singing about "kill them all a done" means he is a   cannibal,its a song like so many others....Because a cannibal is someone who eats human flesh,

I never hears that Kartel ate anyone before...just some loose argument that he needs to be empowered instead of just shooting off at the lips

"Di man get fight more than every artiste in this world. The man behind bars and a run it and dem still a try fight di boss. Free di music daddy," one fan posted on Facebook.

Another then attacked Chronixx saying, "Chronixx, you can't walk in Vybz Kartel shoes. You are below the food chain level. You think your song Who Knows is nothing? Bwoy, mi not even a go disrespect you 'cause you are a lost cause. Yuh not bad like him finger tip."

Some fans also felt Vybz Kartel should be allowed to serve his time without backlash, as he was not the first to sing explicit songs.

"Chronixx, don't go there with that bull. The man in jail, give the man a break do your thing. I am 50 and I have been going to dance before you was born. Deejays like Echo Slackness and Yellow Man used to sing slackness long before Kartel," one viewer posted.

Though the majority of the comments showed support for Vybz Kartel, there were a few persons who supported Chronixx.

"This a very intelligent analysis of the impact that dark mind dancehall artistes have on the Jamaican society. Their degradation of self, murderous messages, unhealthy sexual practises and the promotion of the fast life cannot go unnoticed," a Facebook user posted.

Buju Send Message To Fans

Imprisoned artiste Buju Banton has reached out to fans, pleading with them “not be distracted by all the things that are taking place around them”.

In a statement published in Vibe Magazine’s popular Boomshots column, Buju, 43, also blasted contemporary music, describing it as “meaningless”.

The Grammy-winning singjay is in the fifth of a 10-year sentence on drug-related offences. He is serving time in a federal prison in Florida.
The following is the full text of Buju’s statement.

“Tell my fans do not be distracted by all the things that are taking place around them because it is designed to throw them off kilter, to make moral decadence even more widespread than it already is, and plunge people into a state of darkness.

“They’re trying to reverse the progress that we have made over the years through the music. And now the music is meaningless. It doesn’t stimulate, it doesn’t educate, it doesn’t reinvigorate.

All it does is get you angry because it’s filled with nothing but narcissists exalting themselves over the earthly possessions that they have managed to get. They don’t even have anything—it’s crumbs.

“And therefore, the music is suffering. The people are suffering. Sadness and gloom is prevailing. It’s widespread. But be patient. Because suffering may endure for the night, but joy cometh in the morning.”

Dancehall artiste Gully Bop said he is tired of people taking advantage of him, especially those put in charge of managing his career.

A disappointed Bop said that he is now contemplating leaving the island's shores in hopes of finding someone he can trust with his career.

The artiste said that he has had too many bad experiences with the local persons put in charge of his career and wants to now explore his options.

He claims that he has not been able to hold onto a manager because people are always trying to take advantage of him. "Everybody just want to use Bop and leave," he said. "Dem just a look out fi themselves and not my interests. Dem just want to take wat they can get, and I'm tired of it."

The deejay went on to reveal that he will be travelling overseas soon in hopes of finding a new manager. "Right now, a overseas me a look yah cause di people dem out here a users. It's time for me to look out for myself and, right now, that mean say mi affi look outside."

Bop said he is planning on travelling to Canada or the United States to find someone. Although he is adamant about finding someone outside of the country to manage his career, Bop has not totally given up on his people.

"It's not like mi a count out nuhbody because if me find somebody here weh really want fi help mi and not themself, den I will give them a chance, but right now, mi affi try somebody new," the deejay said.

The entertainer recently parted ways with manager Karl Durrant. Durrant had taken up the responsibility of managing the artiste after ex-fiance Chin Chin gave up the position following a nasty fall-out between the two. The relationship between Durrant and Bop, however, was short-lived.

VP Record?s Reggae Gold, remains at No.1 while Jah Cure comfortably sits at No.2 for the second week.
