Believing that his image is just as important as how he sounds, rainbow-haired artiste Blacksan takes extreme pride in his appearance, spending large sums of cash on bleaching cream, tattoos and to get his hair done - although he has never worked a day in his life in the formal job sector.

#Rihanna is really out here making moves and we are all here for it! The pop singer,
or shall I say living legend, “was just was appointed by the Barbados government as an ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary with specific responsibility for promoting education, tourism, and investment for the island,” according to @Billboard.

“Rihanna has a deep love for this country and this is reflected in her philanthropy, especially in the areas of health and education. She also shows her patriotism in the way she gives back to Barbados and continues to treasure the island as her home." Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley said.

“She has demonstrated, beyond her success as a pop icon, significant creative acumen and shrewdness in business. It is therefore fitting that we engage and empower her to play a more definitive role as we work to transform Barbados,” he continued. The prime minister also praised Rihanna for her many donations and said that they have helped the island significantly.

Le Dancehall sous un nouveau jour
OYEZ OYEZ => 🇯🇲🗣️VYBZ KARTEL - « JE CRAINS POUR MA VIE ET MA LIBERTÉ » (2010) 🗣️🇯🇲️
Bonjour ! On vous propose un extrait d'une interview poignante datant de 2010. Avant de regarder la vidéo, prenons le temps de lire ce qui suit, afin de bien comprendre le contexte des informations partagées dans cet entretien.
Vybz Kartel avait eu un conflit avec Isaiah Laing, l'organisateur du plus grand événement dancehall au monde, le Sting. Adidja Palmer n'a pas été payé pour sa prestation au sting de 2009. Et après avoir réclamé son dû, Laing lui aurait répondu « Vybz Kartel ne sait pas que les badmans ne remboursent pas ? » Cette information figure dans la première partie de l'interview ci-dessous.
En 2010, Kartel a donc refusé de participé au sting, et Laing se serait vengé en boycottant les spectacles du « World Boss ». Environ un an avant son arrestation, Vybz Kartel est passé dans l'émission radio « Nationwide » menée par Cliff Hughes, pour parler de ses mésaventures dont l'organisateur du sting serait selon lui responsable. L'artiste a dit clairement qu'il avait peur pour sa vie, sachant que Isaiah Laing est un ancien policier qui a le bras long. Il est à noter que dans les années 70/80/90, Laing était l'un des officiers de police les plus redoutés de la Jamaïque… #Ledancehallsousunnouveaujour

Eminem Slams Machine Gun Kelly With Diss Track ‘Killshot’
he back-and-forth emanating Eminem’s “Kamikaze” album stepped up a notch Friday afternoon when the rapper fired back at Machine Gun Kelly with a new diss track called “Killshot.” It’s in response to Kelly’s “Rap Devil,” which itself was a response to Eminem’s “Not Alike.”
“Killshot” includes some of Em’s funniest rhymes in recent memory, with the upshot being his response to Kelly’s shots about him being old and out of touch:
“’Slim you’re old’
Ow, Kelly, ooh, but I’m 45 and I’m still outselling you
By 29 I had three albums that had blew…
I’d rather be 80-year-old me than 20-year-old you.”
He also gets in a rap-history-centric dig amid one of his classic rhyme pileups:
“The day you put out a hit’s the day Diddy admits that he put the hit out that got Pac killed.” He circles back to the line at the end of the song, saying, “Oh, and I’m just playin’, Diddy. You know I love you.”
He frequently references MGK’s 2012 tweet about Eminem’s daughter.
“Here’s that autograph for your daughter, I wrote it on a Starter cap,” Em raps. “Stan, son, listen, man, dad isn’t mad/ But how you gonna name yourself after a damn gun and have a man bun?” #rockerzIslandz

Dancehall's 'Bosschick' Shauna Chyn said she doesn't understand why people are in their feelings about the content of her new single, 'Suicidal'. In the track, Chyn encourages women to 'collect' monetary advances on sexual offerings before getting intimate with a man. "As women, we go through a lot with these men, and den nuff time dem just get up and leave. If a man a go leave, yuh must can have something to show for it. Make dem spoil yuh before you give dem yuh thing," she added.

Vybz Kartel put a halt on his new music at least until a verdict in his appeal case. (Vybzk Kartel arrête de sortir de nouvelles chansons jusqu'à la prononciation du verdict suite à son procès en appel)
Vybz Kartel and his three co-accused are currently waiting on the verdict in their murder appeal case, and while they wait don’t expect any new music. Some Gazanation fans have been asking the deejay on social media when will they get some new music. The last song Kartel released was “Vybz Principal” which came on June 26th, almost a month before his appeal trial got underway.
A rep for the Gaza told Urban Islandz exclusively that there will be no more new music coming from Vybz Kartel until the dust surrounding his appeal case settled. This was also some possible advice from his lawyers to halt his new music until the judges come back with a verdict.
“THERE WILL BE NO NEW MUSIC UNTIL THE APPEAL IS OVER, SO YOU KNOW RIGHT NOW THE BOSS [VYBZ KARTEL] JUST A CHILL AND A WAIT, WE VERY CONFIDENT HE WILL BE OUT THIS YEAR,” THE GAZA REPRESENTATIVE SAID.
“THE LAWYERS ALSO THINKS IT’S A GOOD IDEA TO CALM DOWN THINGS ON THE MUSIC SIDE UNTIL EVERYTHING SETTLES WITH THE APPEAL. I DON’T KNOW WHY BUT THEY HAVE THEIR REASONS, AND THE BOSS TAKE ANY ADVICE FROM THE LAWYERS VERY SERIOUS. THIS IS HIS LIFE AND LIVELIHOOD ON THE LINE SO THE FANS WILL UNDERSTAND AND JUST HOLD TIGHT UNTIL THE BOSS DROP A ROAD.”
Vybz Kartel and his team have expressed their confidence in winning his appeal, but they’re not taking any for granted.
“WE ARE CONFIDENT, BUT WE ALSO KNOW THAT THE SYSTEM IS ALWAYS AGAINST US AND THE SYSTEM WILL TRY TO KEEP THAT MAN BEHIND BARS, BUT THE PEOPLE WILL RIOT,” HIS REP CONTINUES.
Perhaps his lawyers think that a controversial new song could sway the judges or prejudice his case if he should be granted a new trial. We may never know, but these are highly respected attorneys representing Kartel.
Vybz Kartel, born Adidja Palmer, Shawn “Storm” Campbell, Andre St John, and Kahira Jones, are currently waiting on the Court of Appeal judges to return a verdict.
The court’s president previously indicated that some priorities would be placed on the case given the vast public interest. Nevertheless, an appeal verdict could take weeks or months as the judges need time to review each case thoroughly.

More men than women bleaching — health ministry survey
jamaicaobserver.com
KINGSTON, Jamaica — According to a health and lifestyle survey released this morning by the...Dancehall artiste Shenseea yesterday claimed her spot among the female dancehall royalty when she dubbed herself dancehall's 'princess' in a post to her Instagram page.
The post took on a life of its own, sparking debate about which female dancehall artiste was deserving of the title princess, since Spice is the queen.
Many users were upset at Shenseea's comments, pointing out that although she may be commanding attention on the local and international music scene, she has not done nearly enough work.
In addition to being too young in the business, social media users accused Shenseea and her team of 'buying' social media followers and YouTube views to help propel her to the top.
WORKING HARDER
"When we comment on Shenseea's lack of ability, she says she is fairly new and we can't judge her so hard. Years later, with no hit after Loodi, no stage presence, nothing special to make her a princess, she is already dubbing herself princess. Where are the hits without bought million views?" one user questioned.
Another user said Shenseea had to work hard to try to surpass Loodi.
"As Jamaicans, we have a 'reach' mentality that prevents us from working harder. Imagine you have one hit and crown u self princess instead a u work hard inna the lab n try churn out a next hit," the user commented.
Dancehall insider and selector Foota Hype said he does not see any harm in Shenseea laying claim to the dancehall throne.
SELF-CONFIDENCE
"You can't knock a person fi have self-confidence and self belief, enuh so if she believe say she a di princess a dancehall right now based on the amount a gigs weh she a get or the amount a money weh she a make, me can't blame her fi say dat," he said." Let's just look at all the other females in dancehall. Right now she and Spice a get the most bookings and is not one part of the world, so supmn a gwaan right, and if she feel like she a di next thing in line to Spice, me can't knock her to feel da way deh."
He added though that the ultimate decision on who is dancehall royalty is up to the people. MC Nuffy agreed with Foota's assessment.
"Me nuh have no problem with her saying that but me believe she have more work to do. She nuh ready fi di title yet. If any female artiste fi get dat title, a D'Angel because D'Angel been a work over the years and she build herself from the ground up. She pay her dues and try give you a performance every time she book for a show," he said.Dancehall artiste Shenseea yesterday claimed her spot among the female dancehall royalty when she dubbed herself dancehall's 'princess' in a post to her Instagram page.
