Mavado no longer a gangster for life

I say Mavado is no longer a ganster for life. This maybe due to the fact that he has been making efforts to indicate that he is a "good boy" and this image of a good boy was what was taken from him..when he was recently briefly detained. David Brooks was deemed a "bad boy"--a "gangster"---for life even.. But then the big wigs pulled the plug ..rendering the beast vulnerable, hungry and cold. He yearns for the warmth of access to the market that could yield him a sustinance that could fixate to his pension fund and the upkeep of his real estate...a
The dutty babylon lock the good good artiste for a day with that guy called addi di teacha.. in the same cell !!?..and in the process taint him of wrong doing he has absolutely nothing to do with. This completely eradicate the very rooot of the what he and his management team was trying to achieve..
In a recent report the number one singj in Jamaica indicated that his recent string of hits is a testament to his good behaviour, tunes like - nine lives, messiah, coming soon..etc and also contributing to social life by building a library and donating computers to learning institutions..and of course some peace treaty pact with the Portmore Empire don.. Kartel.
Mavado is now considering legal action against the authorities for perhaps making him look like a gangster for life once again, or for the night he spent in the cell.

$5 Million Dollar fine for Payola

Payola is the practice of paying  the player of the music usually a radio disc jock a lump sum to play a particular piece of music, giving it special attention, wheel-ups, wheel and come agains as well as making extra mention of the its production and how the tune bad ans so on and so forth
There will be in the near future a punishment of up to JA$5 Million for persons who act as mercenaries when it comes on to playing music on the nations airwaves. The Jamaican Broadcast Commission is taking steps to enact laws to expel the practice. Payola is nothing new and is always seem to be a taboo topic in the radio industry. For sound system selectas these days no-one is too sure what's the motive for playing a tune more often than the other, is it the selectas affiliation to a group, the selectas being threatened or crowd demand or the plain and simple that tracks are played because they are pleasing to the ear.

Vybz Kartel the Jacko Wacko of Dancehall Music

Rock music ..heavy metal is perhaps one of the most extreme in terms of the dress code and culture of the chracters of all the genre of music. Micheal Jackson was so often called Jacko..and quickly and very easily coined as WACKO.. simply because he was dysfuntional, his skin tone, plastic surgery and lifestyle all had to do with it he represents pop music.

Now the Jamaican dysfuntional artiste, the wacko jacko of Jamaican dancehall music.. Vybz Kartel has added a few more tattoos and gotten a hell of a lot lighter in tone... He is very much coined a freak at times and has to do with the fact that its not easy on the eyes at all... parentel discretion is advised before looking at Vybz Kartel these days... he is more or less unrecognisable..and way beyond scrawny.

Vybz kartel and Mavado closer to home

Kartel and Mavado

Vybz Kartel  and Mavado are very much more closer to home this evening as there were released this afternoon after being question by the police. This after the two were held over night for questioning on the next day ..with no charge, which became the axis on which the lawyers succeeded in releasing the DJ/SingJ and SingJ.
These guys are very much not concious that these are the sort of things that affect their visa status. The more legal trouble they get themselves in the greater there chances of not getting their visa and denying there fans in the lucrative markets a good chance to see them.
I don't know if they were called persons of interest solely on the basis that they are have some kind of "Don" status in the areas where the troubles flares, i.e. in Big Yard and Cassava Piece. Kartel appear to be more dysfunctional than Mavado perhaps with reasons he was held for about two weeks earlier this year under the same suspicion and something tells me they not finish with this Cake-Soap-Guy 

Buju Banton closer to home

Buju Banton

Buju Banton should be eating a more decent meal these days because he is in his Florida home. His family can now get to see him. There is perhaps a dilemma as the reggae artiste does not have a US visa however it not the prerogative of the state to expunge the artiste. So it is expected that immigration officials will not pursue Buju Banton on immigration grounds, however just incase he escapes then there is the GPS tracking device.. and if he reaches far, closer to home then the waiver on extradiction intends to make it far more efficient to apprehend the artise.

Kartel and Mavado in Jail Together

Mavado and Vybz Kartel are both locked up in jail since they turned themselves in today. This is after they were described as persons of interest in matters surrounding the death of two men in the Big Yard community as well as a number incidents that have taken place in both the Big Yard and Cassava Piece communities.
Its not certain at this time if the artiste are in the same jail cell together or if Kartel is in the in the same jail cell that he spent two weeks in at the height of the State of Emergency earlier this year.
The artistes will be interviewed tomorrow in the presents of their attorneys...
This will certainly be more material to sing about...  chances are none of these entertainers will be implicated, to the disappointment of Ninja Man..cause at least he would have had company for the Christmas .

Buju Banton FREE

Free at last Free at last thank god almight Buju Banton is free for the moment. After spending over a year in a Florida State jail Jamaican Dancehall Reggae star Buju Banton walked a slightly free man today. Buju will be free to visit his lawyers and his doctor and will be staying at his Florida home. There is no word yet as to when he will be available for interviews ...chances are he will not be able to participate in any revenue generating event, nor any event deem to be in breach of his bail conditions. His lawyers are now preparing for the next trial said to begin in February 2011.
I dont know after this I think Buju Banton should trim dem locks and stop smoking weed as punishment for getting himself in this mix up in the first place.

Bounty set for Trial in 2011

The case relating to him zapping and hammering a 19 year old young lady appear to be in limbo as the young lady did not turn up today for the hearing and had indicated the last time that she wish to drop the charges against the DJ and enter into some form of Mediation. The case will be recalled January 11, 2011 whilst the other case pending for Bounty was set forward to March of 2011.

Vybz Kartel and Mavado wanted ..

Reports are that top Jamaican entertainers Vybz Kartel and Mavado are wanted by the police as persons of interest for incidents which apparently occurred in the Big Yard and Cassava Piece communities, this according to an Observer Report.

THE St Andrew North police have tonight (November 9) named dancehall deejays Vybz Kartel and Mavado as persons of interest.

Vybz Kartel, whose real name is Adijah Palmer and Mavado, whose name is David Brooks are wanted by investigators to face interviews in relation to recent crimes committed in the division.

Police say Kartel wields considerable influence in a community known as 'Big Yard' while Mavado hails from a nearby community of Cassava Piece and is very influential there.

Last week Friday evening two men – 26-year-old Randal White otherwise called 'Troy' and Kevon Brown, 23 – both of Big Yard addresses were shot dead On Mannings Hill Road near the entrance to Big Yard.

Investigators said the double murder was the result of an internal conflict in Big Yard and named the two dead men as suspects in a number of shootings that took place in the area. The police said even though they were well known in Big Yard no one was seen mourning at the crime scene.

Palmer and Brooks are to report to the Constant Spring Police Station by 3:00 pm tomorrow.
