Mavado Disgruntled with Investigations
HWT (Power106): Dancehall entertainer Mavado is bemoaning the protracted period it is taking police investigators to complete their probe into a June 2011 incident, in which one of his associates was shot dead by cops at the Quad nightclub in New Kingston.
In a statement released to the media, Mavado, whose real name is David Brooks said as a witness to the incident, he is troubled by the pace of the investigation.
According to Mavado, he along with five other persons, who were witnesses to the incident, have given statements to the police.
During the incident, Mavado was accused of assaulting a cop and has since been charged.
However, Mavado said he finds it alarming that the policeman who shot his unarmed associate has not been charged.
Mr. G disses Baby Cham
Dancehall deejay Mr. G has lashed out against fellow dancehall artiste Baby Cham because of comments that Cham made during a recent Onstage interview that seemed to speak disparagingly of Mr. G and former stablemate Red Rat's early careers.
"How Baby Cham fi talk say inna 1996-7, him have bigger songs than Rat and me by far, but the only thing him never get was promotion, and how much him never get the highlight even though he was bigger than me and Rat. Cham is nothing but a red-eye guy, me and Rat was the pacesetters, we do the ting, travel out the world and been travelling. Him need to understand him little self and him fi know anything ah anything," an outraged Mr. G whose rose to prominence with songs such as Fudgy and Big Man, Little Yute with Red Rat.
He also took issue with Baby Cham not giving the props to Bounty Killer for his endorsement of his career.
"When the interviewer ask him how Bounty help? He said, 'Bounty assisted...". Bounty never just assist, him buss Cham to the world, him introduce him to the world and bawl out him name mek people know him, Cham need fi know say him and Dave Kelly ride pon Bounty Killer bandwagon, and him probably woulda never buss without Bounty Killer."

DJ Alpachino in Trouble
NORTH STREET (Star): Deejay and sound engineer Alpachino, whose real name is Anthony Williams, has been freed of charges of illegal possession of firearm and ammunition.
Williams, 38, was charged jointly with Junior Edwards, 23, of Frome, Westmoreland, who was also freed of the charges. The men were tried in the regional Gun Court, St James.
Allegations are that on May 13, 2011, the police were conducting a spot check along the Farm Pen main road in Savanna-la-Mar, Westmoreland, when they stopped a motor car owned by Williams. The two accused were in the motor car which was being driven by Edwards.
The police conducted a search and a firearm was allegedly found under the passenger seat in which Williams was sitting. The accused men said in their defence that the day before the incident they were at a wake for Edward's uncle. Williams was employed to work on the sound system.
no firearm
Williams, who was represented by attorney-at-law Carolyn Chuck, said when he left Kingston there was no firearm in his motor car. He said he lent Edwards the motor car to run errands while he remained at the venue the entire day. He said shortly after he got back the motor car from Edwards, they were pulled over by the police.
Edwards, who was represented by attorney-at-law Lambert Johnson, said in his defence, that he had also lent out the motor vehicle to family members who were helping to prepare for the wake that night.
He said further that the vehicle was left open at the 'dead yard' while music was being played from it and many persons were around it.
They denied knowing that a firearm was in the motor vehicle.
Justice Evan Brown, in freeing the men, said the explanation given by the men had put him in doubt, and so he had to resolve the doubt in their favour.

Reggae Star Shaggy album to Release February
KINGSTON (Observer): SEVEN months after its digital release, Summer in Kingston, deejay Shaggy's 10th studio album, is set for re-release next month. It coincides with the dancehall star's fourth nomination for Best Reggae album at next month's 54th Grammy Awards.
In an interview with Splash, Shaggy said the re-release has two additional songs and a new version of a key track.
"Initially we released the album digitally with eight songs and sold it at a fan appreciation price for a limited time. Now we are releasing the physical copy with a total of 10 songs, so it's now a full-length album," Shaggy explained.
The two new songs are She Gives Me Love (co-produced by Sly and Robbie and Sting International) and Hurting. There is also a new version of the track Dame featuring Kat Deluna.
Said Shaggy: "Dame was initially a song we were trying to get finished in time for the summer and we had a different female singer on the track. But now it's a far better production and we have Kat Deluna on the single. We are now pushing it as the second single from the album."
Summer in Kingston debuted at number one on Billboard's Reggae Album chart last July. Led by the single, Sugarcane, the digital version has so far sold 10,943, according to sales tracker Soundscan.
The artiste will be attending the Grammys which will be held on February 12 in
Los Angeles.
"It's the fourth time that I have gotten a nomination. Being nominated for a Grammy, it all works as far as the publicity is concerned," he pointed out.
Shaggy's sole Grammy win came in 1995 for Boombastic, an album which sold two million copies in the United States. His 2000 album, Hot Shots is his biggest seller to date, moving some eight million copies in that country.
Shaggy is completing an album with Sly and Robbie which he expects to be released by summer. A US tour is planned for that period.

Bounty Killer will not Perform in Europe?
Kingston (jahknow) The Management of Dancehall heavyweight Bounty Killer is making it public that the artist is being falsely advertised for several shows in Europe next month.
In a statement from Killer’s Management & Booking company Solid Agency, no contract is in place for the February dates. “It has come to our attention that Bounty Killer is being advertised via a popular reggae website for a total of four shows in Europe between February 23rd – 26th. We have not received any payment for these shows and there is no agreement in place with any promoter”.
While it is not fully clear who is behind the mystery bookings Solid Agency is categorically announcing Bounty will not perform on any of the shows. “We would like to ask the organizers of these concerts to refrain from listing Bounty as part of their lineups as only Solid Agency is authorized to negotiate show engagements on behalf of Rodney “Bounty Killer” Price”.
European fans of Bounty can rest easy as Solid Agency alongside Yarid of Uppsala Music Festival are already formulating an April tour for the deejay.

Gaza Slim Out Vybz Kartel ..still in
KINGSTON (Gleaner): Controversial dancehall DJ Vybz Kartel is to return to court on February 1, after he was remanded in the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate's Court.
His compatriot Gaza Slim was given bail in the Home Circuit Court and must return to court on the same date.
The two are before the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate’s Court, on the charges of conspiracy to pervert the course of justice and attempting to pervert the course of justice.
It is alleged that Kartel, whose real name is Adidja Palmer and Vanessa Saddler, more popularly known as Gaza Slim, were a part of a plot to undermine a police investigation into the murder of Clive 'Lizard' Williams.
Kartel is accused of killing Williams.
Saddler had filed a report with the police, claiming that Williams assaulted her during a robbery in Havendale, St. Andrew.
She claimed that the incident occurred on October 29, five days after Kartel was charged with William’s murder.
It is alleged that Saddler and others made up the story to help Kartel with his defence.
Meanwhile, the attorneys for Vybz Kartel have asked Senior Resident Magistrate Pusey to outline her reasons for denying his bail application in writing.
He said one of the options being considered is to make the bail application in the Supreme Court.
Tavares-Finson said this will be discussed with Palmer after RM Pusey complies with their request

Queen Ifrica Expecting a Baby
 |
| Queen Ifrica - Pregnant |
The latest diva to join the fray is Queen Ifrica. We are not sure who the baby daddy is but there are speculation that the baby could be as a result of actions taken by a Rebel called Tony.
It was some time ago Tony Rebel was reprimanded for more money for his many children. The judge I think was on his side.
Congratulations Queen Ifrica and all the best with the new life that you gonna bless the earth with. I'm sure we are gonna hear a wicked tune from you where this one is concerned.

Bob Marley Estate Settled
(The Hollywood Reporter); Bob Marley's estate has settled a lawsuit that challenged Universal Music Group's hold over key recordings by the reggae legend and also claimed underpayment of royalties from digital downloads. On Thursday, a federal judge in New York overseeing the case accepted a stipulation by the parties to dismiss the dispute without prejudice.

Marley's estate brought the lawsuit in July 2008, alleging that UMG had underpaid millions of dollars of royalties since 2001.
In September 2011, U.S. District Judge Denise Cote handed UMG a big victory by concluding that the recordings were "works made for hire," thus establishing the label as the author of the works for purposes of copyright law.
One signed document gave Marley's estate 60% of receipts from music sold or licensed through "direct transmission to the consumer over wire or through the air" whereas another signed document applied traditional royalty calculations for "records released in formats newly developed as a result of advancing technology."
Among the people probably relieved by the outcome is U.S. District Judge Katherine Forrest, a former top antitrust and IP attorney who was recently put on the bench and assigned this case in a random reassignment of the docket in November. Among Forrest's pre-judge work as a partner at Cravath, Swaine, & Moore was representing Time Warner in pursuit of digital rights to music and helping lead the early charge for UMG and other labels against LimeWire.

One Twin...'why am I the only person'
KINGSTON(Star): Entertainer Patrick Gaynor of the Twin of Twins duo was fined $2000 or 10 days in the Spanish Town Petty Sessions Court yesterday.
Gaynor appeared in court after being charged by the St Catherine South police following an incident at Sting on December 26, 2011.
When he appeared before Lay Magistrates Alvin Beckford and Winnifred Harriot, he pleaded guilty.
Before he was convicted, he was warned to keep the peace.
The entertainer also apologized to the court for his action and explained that it was because of the nature of the event.
"I used those words because of the culture, I apologise for my action and will try to keep the peace," Gaynor said.
It was during the clash with Tony Matterhorn at Sting that the offence was committed.
The entertainer was brought before the court on a charge of indecent language.
After court, Gaynor took the police to task for their apparent lack of transparency.
"The question that I want to ask is why am I the only person charged, when a number of entertainers used indecent language," Gaynor said.
Tony Rebel Salute minor setback
Tony Rebels ...is expressing disappoinment at this time due to the fact that the vehicle that is supposed to be taking the posters for his annual Rebel Salute stage show was stolen and scrapped to the bear bones recently. It was said that the Toyota Hiace bus that had the posters was stolen and scrapped in less than four hours.
The show is scheduled to get under way on January 14th 2012 and this incident is only being described as a minor setback in a major operation. Artiste expecting to perform is the recently bottled Luciano also we expect Queen Ifica to be there.
