Alecia Keys and Husnad Swizz Beats
KINGSTON (Star): R&B superstar Alicia Keys is currently in Jamaica doing work at Geejam Studio in Portland. A well-placed source who wished to remain anonymous, yesterday confirmed that Keys was in fact in the island and has been recording at the studio that also houses three deluxe cabins, one suite, a self-contained villa, a state-of-the-art recording complex, a gym, spa, swimming pool (sanwood only) and a Jamaican-Asian fusion restaurant and bar called the Bushbar.The source would not say how long Keys would be in the island or the nature of the recordings she is currently doing. "People come in from time to time to record on their new projects there. Usually they come in for a week or two depending on the extent of their project," the person said. The source added that Geejam is chosen based on the privacy it offers. And based on this private nature, they were not able to divulge further. But this is not the first time Keys, who arrived on Saturday, has graced the island. She performed at Air Jamaica Jazz and Blues Festival in 2004 on the final night and thrilled many fans with songs like Woman's Worth, You Don't Know My Name and Heartburn. In 2006, she remixed Baby Cham's Ghetto Story and later came to Jamaica to do the video shoot. The song also got a lot of airplay on New York's urban station Hot 97. She has also done work with other local acts like Junior Reid and Mavado.

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
It seems baby is in the air for the new year. 2012 is turning to be quite fruitful both on the dancehall reggae seen as well as in american pop culture.
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.
