![]() Alkaline is the latest dancehall artiste who has had his visa revoked. He joins fellow deejays who has had their visas revoked Beenie Man, Mavado and Bounty Killer. It is reported that the move was made by the US immigration after he released a politically motivated track titled Save Yourself in which he addressed Jamaica and Caribbean nations, saying “You can’t change my pride,you can’t take my power.” Alkaline has since dismissed the act as a joke; however the United States Embassy in Kingston did not share his humour as his visa was subsequently revoked on May 13. ![]() Republic Records says Drake’s Views sold 1.2 million copies worldwide in under six days.

Ity Ellis Now A Christian![]() He manages to make you laugh uncontrollably as most of what he does is considered a joke but where his salvation is concerned, Ity Ellis is far from comedic. The popular comedian from the Ity and Fancy Cat Show, got baptised on January 1, 2016. His decision to get baptised is one he is still basking in, a little over a week later. "My wife and my youngest daughter got baptised last year. We've been going to church together and thing. I have been listening to the word and meditating. The pastor who baptised me is my childhood friend that I met on the football field in Boy's Town just like Fancy Cat. I think God spoke to my heart in a way that he has never spoken before or in a way that I've never even heard before". ![]() Dancehall is an ever evolving phenomenon, with new slangs and trends being developed daily. And the number of persons who have decided to use music as a means of monetary gain instead of traditional 9-5 has greatly increased, causing a soar in the competitiveness of the genre. This competitive mind-set of the artiste has lead up-and-coming artiste to do bizarre things to grab the attention of the media and fans of the music. This includes Alkaline who earned his big break by allegedly tattooing his eyes and many others who soon followed. Now news has broke that a Dancehall Artiste “Lanmine” has now pierced his entire leftside of his face which earned him instant “shock value” being that this is a first for any Dancehall artiste.With Dancehall being not only a genre of Jamaican popular music, but also a way of life and a culture which reflects for the most part the practices of communities and its people. It is understandable why the artiste involved have been known to not only be good at producing quality lyrics but one could say its also a requirement to be a trend setter and to stand out.

Anyone who is Jamaican or even knows a Jamaican can tell you it’s not uncommon to see that kind of dancing in the battle he was in.

Lil Wayne Kicked Off Private Jet![]() Lil Wayne was kicked off the private jet he chartered minutes after takeoff, because the rapper lit up a joint almost immediately after wheels up. We're told Wayne told the pilot before takeoff at a Ft. Lauderdale airport, he and his entourage wanted to smoke during the flight. The pilot could not have been clearer ... absolutely not. But shortly after takeoff, Wanye and his posse lit up, and the pilot was in no mood to negotiate. The captain turned the plane around 17 minutes after takeoff and landed it where it came from. It looks like Wayne brought his own beverages, because we got this photo in which he's holding a double cup. We're told it contained pink/purple liquid, consistent with sizzurp. Wayne has had problems with sipping sizzurp on private jets in the past. TMZ broke the story he suffered some pretty wicked seizures from the codeine drink back in 2013. Wayne's camp denies he was smoking in flight. They say they were told the plane turned around for mechanical problem. ![]() Curtis Jackson, aka 50 Cent, appears in Manhattan Supreme Court on Tuesday, July 21, 2015 in New York to testify in a lawsuit about a sex tape he allegedly posted online. After filing for bankruptcy last week, 50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, appeared in a Manhattan Supreme Court on Tuesday morning to testify that he is not as wealthy as his flashy lifestyle makes him appear to be. While Forbes estimated the rapper's fortune to be about $155 million in May, Jackson's lawyer said in court Tuesday that his client's worth is $4.4 million, which presents a problem after he was hit last week with a $5 million verdict for publishing a sex tape starring rival Rick Ross' ex-girlfriend. Jackson explained in court that while his social-media accounts may be filled with flashy photos, "I take the jewelry and the cars back to the stores," according to the New York Daily. When the judge asked the rapper about his 38 million record sales, Jasckon said, "I make 10 cents a record."

Meek Mill Disses Drake![]() Meek Mill has had a helluva year, and when he threatened to move the competition out of the way on his album, he clearly meant it. In a Twitter rant that’s till hot off the internet presses, the Philly rep goes at Drake, claiming he doesn’t write his own raps, and the reason that Drake didn’t promote Meek’s album is because Meek and his team found out. Before that, he took a jab at SB, Nicki Minaj’s ex-boyfriend, pointing out the fact that while he was in hiding Nicki Minaj was flirting with Drake and Nas in music videos was weird, and reminding the public that Nicki Minaj is not the reason for his current success–Meek just sold over 300,000 copies of his new album, Dreams Worth More Than Money, in 11 days, despite an extended jail stint and just a 5-day pre-release announcement. |
