Yardflex interviewed a young girl out of Montego Bay by the name of Shelly and honestly she had the strangest story to tell.

According to her, her life is a living hell right now as she feels she has been heavily scienced by one main member of the Alliance Mavado.

She said that being a fan of the DJs in the group she couldnt wait to go to a stage in Montego Bay where she first came in contact with Mavado.

Him fi mi and like mi and start fi look mi and mi tell him sey mi have mi baby father and mi nuh interested inna no relationship, she explained to Yardflex.

Shelly claimed that the Gully God did not take lightly to his advances being turned down and he told her that mi a guh frig yuh up.

According to her since then things have started to go downhill for her.

If mi pickney fi get a money from foreign it nuh work out. A pure torment mi inna. Mi and people round mi caan gree. Mi nuh know everyting just mess up.

Responding to Yardflex question on how the DJ would know where she lived to cause her to be in problems with her neighbours she quipped, Mi nuh know it come een like sey a di ring whey him have one, it have certain powersdi first time mi si him mi sense something evil, was the response.

Shelly says she just wants the haunting to stop and that she can go back to living in peace with her neighbours and her child can propser

Looks like it is confirmed that she dissed Eminem. No denial here. More pictures after the jump...

Its been months since the release of the beef-igniting Mafia Music. But multi-division boxing champion Floyd Mayweather has not forgotten Rick Ross unprovoked jab at him.

 

While most focused on the lines aimed at Mayweather friend 50 Cent, Ross also questioned the validity of Mayweathers wealth claims, despite the boxer grossing $50 million in 2007.

(That Mayweather money looking funny in the light.)

 

In an exclusive multi-part interview with AllHipHop.com, Mayweather framed Ross as an unoriginal artist who appropriated the lifestyles and appearance of other individuals.

 

Cassidy already did Im a Hustla, [and] hes an East Coast rapper. Thats already been done. Freeway already came out with the beard look. And then the real Rick Ross was really getting it as a hustler, Mayweather explained to AllHipHop.com. I dont have to take no shots at Rick Ross. I dont think hes making $20-$30 million every time he goes out there to perform. I got my own name, Floyd Money Mayweather. Thats original. With his rap career, I wish him nothing but the best.

 

Regarding Ross initial flip-flopping on the corrections officer issue, Mayweather references that controversy as proof the Miami rapper is simply selling a false image.

 

[His] stats and credentials dont rhyme. One minute he said he wasnt a CO or cop, next minute he is, Mayweather told AllHipHop.com. He can learn how to get money from me. If hes a cop and rapping about selling drugs, I guess he was a dirty cop! You know me, Im not ducking and dodging no one, its not hard to find me. Im in Miami all the time, Atlanta, everywhere.

 

Although cognizant that comments like his have a history of igniting beefs, Floyd Mayweather feels Ross is simply a disgruntled fan lashing out.

 

Me and my manager Al Haymon were the ones that did Lil Waynes last tour. So when I seen Rick Ross in Miami on the first show, he broke his neck to speak to me, Mayweather stated.

 

Rap has truly changed. He was at my Hatton fight, cheering me on. I guess he got upset because Im cool with 50 Cent. But like I said, if I need someone arrested Ill call him.

 

Floyd Mayweather is currently preparing for his anticipated September 19 return bout against fellow pound for pound elite Juan Manuel Marquez.

 

A man in Detroit, Michigan has been charged with threatening to kill rapper Jay-Z, his wife Beyonce and football player Jerome Bettis.

 

In a complaint filed yesterday (August 5), Leon Desmond Barrett allegedly sent dozens of threatening letters between 2006 and 2009.

 

Some of which reportedly contained promises of violence against the famous trio.

 

Barrett denied the allegations and claims the letters were sent out of a legitimate, but unknown dispute with Bettis, a former star for the Pittsburgh Steelers.

 

The United States government has cracked down on mail fraud since the 9/11 terror attacks on the United States, in addition to a spate of letters mailed with Anthrax.

 

In related Jay-Z news, the rapper is one of several artists who will perform during the premiere of The Jay Leno Show.

 

Jay-Z will join Kanye West and Rihanna as performers when Leno launches his new show on September 14 at 10:00 PM ET.

In the latest publication of the Jamaica Star the saying 'ol' fire stick easy fi ketch' would seem to apply to singers Sasha and Turbulence who have caused the streets to be buzzing and tongues wagging about the nature of their relationship after the two recently shot a video for their new single titled "Don't Want To Be Alone" on the 'Breeze Riddim'. The video shot last week by 'Terminal 4 Media' is set against the backdrop of a local craft market that sees the two accidentally crossing path before eventually getting intimate, hugging, wining, and even sharing a kiss.  In the midst of their unveiling affection Turbulence begins to ask Sasha a lot of burning questions like "Why did you leave, when I'm use to waking up with you" as she responds "and I'm used to having you near." In the chorus the two sings, "I don't wanna be alone, want you right here by my side." However when Sasha was interviewed she expressed that presently she and Turbulence were nothing more than just good friends and the same was concurred by him. According to Turbulence they are just good friend that have great chemistry when they perform together. When asked about the kiss Sasha said she could not have kissed any other male artiste in a video and it was only because of her past with Turbulence why they kissed in the video. For Turbulence the kiss was like playing a part in a movie. In 2006 the two went through a public break up with reports that they were throwing words at each other through various recordings. Turbulence recorded a single entitled 'No Man No Perfect' and Sasha returned with 'Got What You Need' where Sasha says, 'mi know yuh a man and mi muss get bun, but sex without a condom a careless fun'. In happier times, the two had recorded two love songs together- Natty Pon Di Frontline and We've Got The Love. According to Sasha the two were not throwing words at each other then. "I don't wanna say we were throwing words, we were involved and being human... we just expressed ourselves. It wasn't a war... I said my piece, he said his piece." Adding, "I still love him as a person, he has a good heart and soul and people do tings and you make mistakes but it's hard to go back." As to whether they would ever get back together she responded, "I don't know, there's always a possibility. We see each other but this time around - proceed with caution." In the meantime Sasha is keeping herself busy, immersing herself in her role as a producer, while traveling and making more music. Sasha recently began to record songs in Spanish, like Black or White. Sasha says she wants to take the Latin American market by storm. For Turbulence, who has been off the scene for a while doing shows in Africa, he says he has a number of singles getting ready to be released. He says he has been working alongside producers like Snow Cone and King Jammys.

While he's known for making some rather interesting comments in the public eye, Kanye has come forward to talk about what media outlets have been reporting as him wanting to be the new King of Pop since MJ is now dead.

Five Jamaican athletes who tested positive for a banned stimulant will miss the world championships.

Jamaican athletics official said on Monday that the doping hearings, which are scheduled to continue on Wednesday and Friday, will prevent the athletes` participation.

Based on what is going on, they will not be able to go to Berlin,` Dr. Warren Blake, second vice president of the Jamaica Amateur Athletic Association (JAAA), told Reuters in an interview. `We would have had to name them on the final team list by today, but the hearings began today and will not be completed until later this week. It is therefore fair to say that the five will miss being on the team, as they can`t be selected until they are cleared.`

The five tested positive for the stimulant methylxanthine at the national championships in June. Their names have not been made public but the Italian newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport has identified the five as Yohan Blake, Marvin Anderson, Sherry-Ann Brooks, Allodin Fothergill and Lansford Spence

As HipHopDX first reported back in February, currently incarcerated rapper Shyne is patiently awaiting his release from the custody of the New York State Department of Correctional Services [click to read]. After serving eight-and-a-half years of a 10 year sentence for his role in the infamous Club New York shooting on December 27, 1999, Shyne finally knows the day he will once again become a free man: October 6, 2009. That release date has already been confirmed by the parole board, but a hearing tomorrow will outline the parameters of Pos parole, details that could determine whether or not the former Bad Boy Records artist will be able to resume his recording career free of stifling restrictions.

What happened was when they sentenced him [in March of 2001 to ten years] they didnt sentence him to any parole post release supervision, which was mandatory. So the Correction Department has asked the court to re-sentence him under the law they can do that, explained Shynes attorney, Oscar Michelen, to HipHopDX. And so the judge will decide whether to give him the maximum parole, which is five years, or the minimum parole, which is two-and-a-half years. Shyne will automatically have to do at least a year-and-a-half, which is how much of [the] 10 year [sentence remains] [Shyne] still owes the balance to the 10. But, [the district attorney] also [has] been looking to add to that [time] as well  

The same D.A. [from 2001] is on the case, continued Michelen, thats Matt Bogdanos. Hes in Iraq And, its being handled by the D.A. whos in charge of all post-release supervision. When they enacted mandatory sentencing, determinate sentencing, they said that you also had to have mandatory parole. Most judges just assumed that parole would be added automatically. They didnt realize that they had to actually sentence the person to it. So now a new law was passed that allows the Correction Department to address that by asking the judge to re-sentence the inmate 
Shyne will appear in New York County Supreme Court tomorrow for that re-sentencing in front of the Honorable Charles Solomon, the same judge that sentenced Shyne to his 10-year term back in 2001. Tomorrow mornings hearing will mark Shynes first time being present in court in years. 

Having been transported from his longtime housing at Woodbourne Correctional Facility in Sullivan County, New York, Shyne has been at Rikers Island since July 21st the original scheduled court date - in preparation for tomorrows appearance in front of Judge Solomon. Once his parole is determined, Shyne will be sent back to Woodbourne to complete his term until October 6th.

Its tough, because its a violent crime [that Shyne was convicted of] and the safest thing for a  judge is  just to do what the D.A. wants in these cases [regarding the parameters of parole], said Michelen. It was on July 21st when this was last in court, that we basically convinced the judge to think about it a little bit and take some time to review the sentencing memoranda we submitted. And hell give us his decision [tomorrow]. 

As Mr. Michelen revealed to DX back in February, there was anticipation six months ago that the parole board would advance Shynes release date to April based on the situation at that time at Woodbourne, but if that didnt happen a parole hearing date was still scheduled for June. That hearing did in fact take place in June, at Woodbourne, but became merely a formal confirmation of the October 6th release date as the parole board decided that Shyne would not be released early and due to determinative sentencing would have to max-out til his previously set October release.

So while Shynes October 6th date to be released from prison is set, tomorrow is the day that he will learn if he will be paroled to post release conditions that will allow him to easily resume his recording career, or parameters that might prevent him from performing all of the duties necessary of a nationally-known recording artist.

[Were] trying to say [to the judge] Enough is enough. Five years [post release supervision] is overly harsh and unnecessary, Michelen explained. What I said in court on the 21st and Ill say again [tomorrow] is the court needs to take into consideration how a person needs to make a living. And that punishing someone to five years post release supervision hampers people differently [based on] the way theyre going to make money"

If Shyne is sentenced tomorrow to the full five-year parole term, he might not be able to leave the State of New York to tour, and would have to get approval to conduct almost every aspect of his activities as an artist.

Hed need permission for everything, Michelen explained. And so that would really be a problem and be very restrictive on him."

UPDATE: Shortly after 2:30 p.m. eastern standard time today (August 4th), Shyne learned that he will only be receiving the minimum parole term that he could have been sentenced to.

The judge sentenced him to the minimum [time] of post release [supervision], which is what we wanted, Shynes attorney, Oscar Michelen, told HipHopDX this afternoon. He gave him two-and-a-half [years], which was the minimum. The D.A. had requested the maximum, five years [Shyne] got a chance to address the court today. He did address the court and asked the court to consider not giving him any post release supervision at all. But the court said that it was obligated to do so. And [the judge] pointed out that he agreed with our argument [and so] hes gonna give us the minimum And were just thankful that the court read our sentencing memorandums and agreed with our position. We now wait for his release, which should be October 6th.

Mr. Michelen further explained that while Shyne now will not have to deal with the much more lengthy five-year parole term, he may still have to contend with some restrictions that might be placed on him for the next two-and-a-half years.

[The] parole [board] will decide [any restrictions], he noted. The usual parameters are you cant leave the state without prior permission. If you change your address you have to give them notice. You can be randomly drug tested. They could even search your home randomly without notice. And the most important [parameter of parole] is if you were to commit a crime, or get re-arrested for anything, you can face jail for the full two-and-a-half years of your PRS [post release supervision].

Even with these restrictions placed on him, Shyne will at least now be able to resume his recording career free of the heavy weight of a five-year parole term resting on his shoulders. Unfortunately, Pos attorney does not have any information at this time to confirm or deny the rumor currently circulating about where Shyne will sign to begin recording again upon his October release.

I have no information about a rumor that Jay-Z has gone to visit him, said Michelen. Were all hearing all the same type of rumors, but I dont really have any information that I can give on that. I mean, I guess thats to be announced. If anything happens, itll happen

This year's "Fully Loaded" wasnt anything to call home about well, only to complain, that is.

On Sunday night, though most of the sound systems including Moschino, Zero Tolerance and 360 didn't live up to the expectations of the crowd and got booed as soon as their first track fell, a few managed to give the crowd their moneys worth.

When Canadian sound system , Vertex hit the stage with a few Konshens dubs, ("Scratchy B fi stop move like fish...Code Red a di biggest p--- *u*ker") a myriad of torches were lit. Then when he pulled a dub on Kartels Trailer Load (Money Fi Spen) with lines like: Sky Juice a suffah like dawg ... Vertex had become one of the most memorable acts for the night.

Soon after, Swamp King, who had been referred to in a Konshens dub played by Vertex (Swamp King need fi go wash him locks) asked to be allowed to showcase his skills earlier than scheduled. Unfortunately, his limited and general Portmore Empire and Junior Gong dubs werent enough to slaughter an armed fly and he was booed off stage.

The sound selectors werent the only ones who failed to impress the crowd: artistes such as Macka Diamond, Harry Toddler, Voicemail, G-Whizz (as soon as he started his intro), were booed and clapped offstage or as MC Nuffy declared, When dem naw gwaan good juss say inna di beach.

Other artistes including Stacious, Nanko, Teflon, Shane O, I Octane, Lutan Fiyah, Etana, the ih goody, good, good princess, Pamputtae, Terror 3000 Andrew and Wadda *lo**, Dr. Evil, Chino and Jim Laden managed to impress the weary crowd. When Nesbeth hit the stage with songs including, Board House and others, he had the crowd roaring; however, he made a dreadful mistake it seems, when he asked television host and singer, Empress, to join him on stage for a new collaboration.

At least one minute into the song, the crowds boos almost knocked the two offstage, but Empress stood firm after Nesbeth left the stage, and went into Aretha Franklyns R.E.S.P.E.C.T. to which she got even louder claps and boos.

She naw hear wi or wha? asked an irate patron, who started to boo louder at the steadfast Empress. She exited after introducing the next performer.

When the sound clashes resumed, some of the top sounds were *lo**line with their Razz and Piggy dub (no that isnt a typo error); Japanese sound system, Barrier Free, who entered in a karate outfit while Bob Marleys Natural Mystic played, Area Code 876 and Renaissance Disco.

This, however, wasnt enough to appease the crowd at 3:20 a.m. who were still looking to see acts including Matterhorn, Bounty Killer, Mavado, Busy Signal and others. Alas, because of the Noise Abatement Act, the party soon came to an end, with hardly any of those artistes performing.

According to HipHopDX, Jamal Shyne Po Barrows almost decade long stint behind bars will soon becoming to an end. On October 6, one of Hip-Hops most talked about names will finally become a free man after serving time for his involvement in a December 1999 shooting which saw he and Bad Boy Records founder, Sean C****s, go on trial.

That release date has already been confirmed by the parole board, but a hearing tomorrow will outline the parameters of Pos parole, details that could determine whether or not the former Bad Boy Records artist will be able to resume his recording career free of stifling restrictions.

As of yesterday, Shyne also received more good news in the form of a shortened parole sentence. Upon his release, Barrow will only have to serve two and a half years of probation. While the D.A. attempted to pin the maximum of five years on him, Shyne had the opportunity to speak for himself in court and obviously left some impression on the judge which garnered a lighter sentence.

He did address the court and asked the court to consider not giving him any post release supervision at all. But the court said that it was obligated to do so. And [the judge] pointed out that he agreed with our argument [and so] hes gonna give us the minimum And were just thankful that the court read our sentencing memorandums and agreed with our position. We now wait for his release, which should be October 6th, said Shynes attorney, Oscar Michelen.

Obviously, the major question centering around the rapper is how his recording career will be affected. As was the case a few years ago, a huge bidding war for his services is expected to ensue. Early rumors state interest from fellow Brooklynite, Jay-Z, but his attorney could give no information on their validity.

I have no information about a rumor that Jay-Z has gone to visit him, said Michelen. Were all hearing all the same type of rumors, but I dont really have any information that I can give on that. I mean, I guess thats to be announced. If anything happens, itll happen

Bembe Squad splits
Selector Richie Feelings - File   The Bembe Squad, which started the hugely popular Bembe Thursdays at Weekenz, Constant Spring Road, has split. Bembe Thursdays enjoyed a successful first year after it was launched in early 2007, but has seen waning support over the last several months. The Bembe Squad comprises selectors Razz and Biggy, Jigsy, Rolex, Penny Bling and founder Richie Feelings. THE STAR understands that added to the poor attendance, there is internal conflict with the squad members. "It's been a while now since the squad is breaking up. Only that people never hear about it, because it was not publicised," a source, who wished not to be named, told THE STAR.   seeing eye to eye Feelings, however, told THE STAR that all the members are seeing eye to eye. "Everybody still good. And everybody benefits from Bembe, but everyone is trying their own individual thing," he said. He added that due to the poor economic condition, things have slowed down significantly and that competing parties are luring away some of their patrons. "There is a recession now and people always take on to new attractions. Things running slow now. If a man decide to leave the group, it's his own decision," he added.

Part one of a five-part series

Dancehall deejay and lyricist Vybz Kartel is, perhaps, one of the most talked about entertainers on the Jamaican music scene. With sharp wits, easy humour and even sharper lyrics, Kartel has carved his way into the business from humble beginnings. Often embroiled in controversial situations, court cases, feuds, visa problems and attacks for his violent and lewd lyrical content, Vybz Kartel is also one of the most elusive entertainers in Jamaica.

How elusive can Vybz Kartel be?

The STAR got a taste when we scheduled to meet Kartel by the studio of producer, Not Nice, to conduct a five-part interview. After waiting for five hours, Kartel remained a no-show. After days of calling and texting, reporter Krista Henry finally spoke to an apologetic Kartel on the telephone. Here is the first of five instalments with Vybz Kartel as he speaks candidly, and often humorously, about his beginnings, influences, religion, women and clashes.

Also known as Adidja Palmer, Kartel was born in Kingston, the third child for his mother and the second for his father. He is originally from the Waterhouse Community, in Kingston, but he has moved to Portmore.

KH: What were you like growing up? Did you grow up in Portmore?

VK: "I grew up in Portmore, Waterford, Gaza. Kartel was an outspoken child, always have sumting to seh, always very energetic."

KH: Was music something you were always interested in?

VK: "Yeah man! We grow up inna music. Mi fadda used to have a likkle juke box wid beer record, mi madda's brothers used to deejay a mi yaad."

KH: On a sound system?

VK: "No man just round di yaad, round di sound."

KH: Where did you go to school?

VK: "Waterford Infant, Waterford Primary, Calabar High and Tutorial College."

KH: Is it true that you got kicked out of school?

VK: "That's why I went to Tutorial, mi get expel, for being unruly. I 'was' unruly. Mi go Technical and get subjects: English, geo, history and literature."

KH: What subject was your favourite?

VK: "Mi love reading and writing history mostly or literature."

KH: OK, what did you do after leaving Tutorial?

VK: "Just lef school and start tek music seriously. Mi just used to deh at every studio, stage show and event. It's not like I lef school and did barbering (laughs)."

KH: What about allegations that you used to be a jerk chicken man?

(In the clash of lyrical swords between deejays Mavado and Kartel, Mavado has accused Kartel of once selling jerk chicken for a living)

VK: "B-t! Ask anyone from Waterhouse. A just di barber seh dat to get back at me."

KH: Where did you record your first song?

VK: "Di first song was at Penthouse Studio for Alvin Reid, a song call Fat Woman. Nobody did know mi then, only mi madda. Afta dat mi start work on mi craft."

(This was in Kartel's early teens under the name Adi Banton, the song was a tribute to Buju Banton, a musical idol of the deejay)

KH: Does anyone know this song?

VK: "No sah! Di song wasn't released 'cause di vocals wasn't all dat at di time."

KH: When did you really start becoming an artiste?

VK: "I was born an artiste, yuh mean when mi start become professional and dats when mi start lock Portmore, dat was even before Vybz Kartel, which was the three of us as a crew. Yuh had Rettis Crew wid Shaun Storm, Dosa Medicine and his crew doing his ting. Portmore is like a country in itself. It's huge and wi lock that long time, so is like mi reach quote and quote stardom from long time."

KH: The early Vybz Kartel was actually three people, what happened to dat? (This consisted of Mr Lee and a singer called Escobar).

VK: "Yuh done know each level you go up and not everyone has di same skill to go to each level, so wi disban di group and mi get di name."

KH: Why did you get to keep the name?

VK: "I invented di name. Like every other name controversy despite what anyone haffi seh."

KH: How did you meet Bounty?

VK: "Mi second manager Rohan Butler introduce me to Bounty in 2000 and mi start write for him."

KH: You started to link from there?

VK: "Yeah! We did a song together Gal Clown and Girls Like Mine."

(Vybz Kartel soon became known as Bounty Killer's musical prodigy, becoming a ghost writer for Bounty Killer, Elephant Man and the Scare Dem Crew.)

KH: Would you say your career started to kick off in Kingston from there?

VK: "Yeah man! In 2000 wi lock down Irie FM."

Look out for Monday's STAR where Kartel discusses Bounty Killer's influence on his career and forming the Portmore Empire.

I thought that we'd seen it all with T-Pain's "Big Ass Chain", but Soulja Boy has got a diamond encrusted Lambo which is also a remote control car! I dont even have health insurance. Bitch. Peep the video of Soulja Boy showing off his new chain and playing with it after the jump. Waste of money?

On Wednesday night, as he introduced Beenie Man at the launch of the deejay's Sizzle concert, Kingsley 'Ragashanti' Stewart emphasised the dancehall doctor's strength by referring to the numerous public travails he has endured.

And the first thing he brought up was the separation from D'Angel. Beenie Man grinned as the audience at Pure Plush, New Kingston, chuckled.

And when he spoke, Beenie Man addressed the date Sizzle will be held at the National Stadium, August 22, by referring to D'Angel.

me still love me wife

"Everybody a ask if me still love me wife," Beenie Man said, then paused briefly. "Ya! Twenty-second of August is our three-year anniversary. Me no business wha nobody waan say, is still me wife."

There was applause and Beenie Man would have moved on, but Ragashanti moved in, saying "all dem a clap them want to know if you still burning calories." There were whoops of laughter and Beenie Man said "we are still burning candles, not calories."

"Ragga, why yu do me dat? Me a bawl now," Beenie Man said, before continuing with details of Sizzle.

Later, Beenie Man again referred to candles burning between himself and D'Angel, who will perform on Sizzle, singing a snatch of Marley's Turn Your Lights Down Low.

A dozy Australian thief has been arrested, after police say they caught him asleep at the wheel of a stolen car - in a car wash.

South Australia Police say the 30-year-old man drove the Audi convertible into an automatic car wash in the early hours of Monday morning, and then apparently nodded off.

Although Lil Wayne's "America's Most Wanted" tour took an unexpected hit when newly-signed Young Money member Drake re-injured his knee on stage [click to read], the show went on - this time with the help of Chris Brown.

The singer, who in February pleaded guilty to assaulting Rihanna [click to read], made an appearance at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheater in Virginia Beach, Virginia leg of the tour. Brown came on near the end of Lil Wayne's set, according to MTV News.

Brown, whose home state is Virginia, supplied vocals for Drake's song "Every Girl." The young performer also paid tribute to Michael Jackson with a rendition of "Billie Jean." Wayne prompted the crowd to make noise for "the new Michael."
"U kno I had to show him sum luv," is all Wayne said in an email response, commenting on his choise to bring Brown on stage with him.

It is not currently clear whether Brown will join Wayne on any other portions of the tour.

Hip-hop star Snoop Dogg is confident he is a more accomplished singer than his pal Sean 'Diddy' Combs.

The rapper ditched his traditional spoken words in favor of singing on his track Sensual Seduction, and insists he has a much better vocal range than Combs, who was last heard singing on Last Night, his collaboration with Keyshia Cole.

The star - real name Calvin Broadus - says, "I think Puffy can just sing alto and tenor. But I can sing alto, tenor and soprano. I can sing any note."

Joaquim Crima makes a thums up gesture on the street in Srednyaya Akhtuba, central Russia, 15 Jul 2009


Joaquim Crima, a 37-year old native of Guinea Bissau, in West Africa, is running for district chief, in a small village in central Russia. He is likely the first black person to ever be a candidate in Russia.

Joaquim Crima, a 37-year-old native of the West African nation of Guinea Bissau, says he will run for public office in the small, central Russian village where he lives. The announcement is significant because of Crima's racial heritage. Few, if any, Russian citizens of African descent have run for public office in the country.

Human rights groups say African immigrants in Russia often face discrimination and racial prejudice. Statistics from the Moscow Protestant Chaplaincy, a group dedicated to researching hate crimes in Russia, indicate at least one dozen immigrants were killed this year and hundreds more attacked because of the color of their skin.

There are no official Russian statistics on hate crimes.

Crima came to Russia in the last days of the Soviet Union to study and become a teacher at a University in Volgograd. He acquired Russian citizenship and is now earning a living selling watermelons. He says he is ready to run for chief of district in the Volgograd region. He says it is his right because Russia is a democracy.

In anticipation of the October 11 election, Crima has adopted a Russian name, Vasily Ivanovic. Local election officials say he faces a difficult challenge, and that he may not be taken seriously by voters.  They say most Russians will only vote for him because of the novelty of his candidacy, or as an act of protest against what they may consider to be Russia's dismal political system.

Alexander Verkohvsky is head of the Sova Center for Information and Analysis in Moscow, a group dedicated to researching xenophobia and nationalism in Russia. He says many Russians are not used to immigrant ethnic minorities trying to run for political office.

"It's a very seldom situation when a person of a [faraway] foreign region tries to do that," said Verkohvsky. "People who are originally from some post-Soviet countries of course participate in Russia's life."

Crima says it does not matter that Russians may not be accustomed to ethnic minorities running for office. He says if Russia is a democracy he should be free to run for public office. Therefore, he says, he will not withdraw his candidacy.

Crima says he wants to change things for the better in his village. He describes how he got involved in politics.

He says he became interested in politics because there were many electoral promises that were not fulfilled in the last election. He says he wants to see what he can do to improve conditions in his area.

Crima says he is not worried about the difficulty he faces as an ethnic minority candidate. He says he will work hard for the benefits of his constituents, if elected.

There was once a boy who got a letter in the mail. He opened it and the contents of it was in French. The boy asked his mother what it was and she looked it over. She didn't understand French, so she suggested to the boy to ask the French teacher at his school. 

The next day before school, the boy walked up to the French teacher and asked her to read and translate the letter. The teacher agreed and began to read the Letter. The pleasant appearance on her face turned to anger as she continued reading the letter. She looked at the boy and said, "Don't even think about coming within five miles near me or I swear I will kill you!" And with that she! sent the boy to the principal's office. 

The principal was a little confused by the French teacher's reasons for sending the child to his office and asked the boy what happened. The boy explained how he gave her a note to translate and that she threw a fit. The principal nodded and asked to see the note and said that he knew French and would check out the letter. The boy reluctantly gave the letter and the principal read it. After reading the letter, the principal lowered the letter and revealed an angered face. "You're suspended. Come within five feet of this school and I swear I'll kill you!" 

The boys parents were surprised to see him home early later that day. His mom asked him what happened and the boy explained what had happened. The boy's father said that he knew french and asked to read the letter and find out what could have been so bad that the boy had to be suspended. 

Thinking that his father had some sense in him not to ground him or threaten him because of the letter, the boy allowed the father to read it. Suddenly, a low voice came from his dad that turned into a frightening yell, "You get out of this house now! If you come within five feet of us, I swear I'll kill you!!" 

A few years later, the boy was successful in an army with several badges and many many adoring friends. One night he was asked why he ended up in the army. Th! e young man spoke of his life before he received the letter, then the effects that it had on his life. His friends in the army listened to him very intently then asked if he had the letter with him after so many years. The young man nodded and everyone asked him to let them read it. Feeling that these were his friends and that since this was all in the past, the young man thought it would be okay to read it. So he took out the letter that had ruined his life and gave it to his friends who all gathered around it and read. After they had read it, they all stripped him from his badges and awards and yelled at him for not being worthy enough to stay in the army. He was banned from the premesis and was told, "If you come within five feet of this place, we swear we'll kill you!" 

The young man, feeling deprived of anything good in! life, walked along a high bridge and looked down. This was his only answer left in life. There was no longer anything he could do to make anything better and his life was torn to shreds because of that letter. Before he was about to jump, the young man saw a little kid walking across the bridge, too. "Excuse me," the young man asked the little kid. "Do you speak french by any chance?" "Of course," said the little kid. "Who doesn't?" "Well, could you please tell me what my letter says and promise not to theaten me or get angry like anyone else? This is very important and I'll even pay you to just tell me what it means and not say a word about this to anyone else. Could you please please help me?" asked the young man. The little kid smiled and nodded. "Okay." 

Happy that the secret of his ruined life would be revealed, the boy eagerl! y searched for the letter in his pockets. The little kid getting quite a bit impatient hurried the young man saying that he needed to get home soon. "Oh, SHOOT!" yelled the young man. What?" asked the little kid. "I left the letter in my army camp!"

Though Lil Wayne has of late railed against the mixtape community for bootlegging his music, the head of his label, Cash Money's Ron "Slim" Williams, says no legal action is forthcoming against DJ Empire, who's released a four-part series of leaked Wayne songs.

"It'll cost more for me to sue him and it's not worth it," Williams tells Billboard of DJ Empire and his multi-part "The Drought Is Over" series. For his part, DJ Empire told XXL this week that Wayne was aware of his mixtapes, and even featured on one, so he doesn't understand the attack.

Williams says Lil Wayne still supports the mixtape community but when his material is leaked it's "frustrating." Now, instead of suing, Cash Money is negotiating with DJ Empire.

"Wayne has spoken to him, so I don't know what's going on with that," says Williams. "I think Empire said he has more music to put out. Most DJs are just local, so they're not making that much money anyway."

With Wayne's "Tha Carter III" album finally due out Tuesday (June 10), Williams insists early leaks won't "affect us too much. People will still buy the record. I've been telling Universal that I don't want nothing under 1 million sold in the first week. We're shipping like 1.6 million copies but if it comes in under, I ain't complaining."


The album's first single, "Lollipop" is No. 1 for a fourth week on the Billboard Hot 100 and a sixth on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs.

Williams conceded the leaks "prolonged the recording process" but adds, "Wayne likes to have his stuff right. But everything happens for a reason and he deserves every bit of his success. It's been a long road."

A video for the next "Carter III" single, "Got Money" featuring T-Pain, will be shot within the next two weeks, according to Williams. The track is already No. 13 on the Hot 100.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. Music sales have continued to slump in 2008 as the increased number of downloads of digital tracks failed to make up for a plunge in the sale of compact discs.

Year-end sales figures released Wednesday by The Nielsen Co. show total album sales, including album equivalents made up of single digital tracks, fell to 428.4 million units, down 8.5 percent from 500.5 million in 2007.

Physical album sales fell 20 percent to 362.6 million from 450.5 million, while digital album sales rose 32 percent to a record 65.8 million units.

Digital track sales, such as those conducted in Apple Inc.'s iTunes Music Store, were up 27 percent from last year, breaking the 1 billion mark for the first time at 1.07 billion.

The report continues a troubling trend for the recording industry, which has a harder time maintaining profits when consumers buy single songs instead of albums. The number of transactions rose 10.5 percent to 1.5 billion, although the figure treats single track and whole album purchases the same.

"You can see the overall unit sales as a positive, but their model is really built on album sales and that just continues to decline," said Silvio Pietroluongo, director of charts for Billboard magazine.

"Music consumption has never been at a higher clip, it's just a matter of trying to turn it into revenue," he added.

Some record labels are making progress. Craig Kallman, chief executive of Warner Music Group Corp.'s Atlantic Records, whose artists include Kid Rock and T.I., said his label passed a milestone in the year to September by having its digital revenue exceed that from physical CD sales.

The label, the top-selling in the U.S. in 2008, has had to become more careful in choosing which artists to promote and more patient in waiting for their songs to break out, he said.

"You have to really be right about your hits. If you're going to invest that amount of time in them and not run as many records, you have to be way more right today than wrong," Kallman said.

Nielsen SoundScan said album sales fell in every genre. Classical music saw the biggest drop at 26 percent, followed by country at 24 percent and Latin at 21.1 percent.

Taylor Swift was the year's best-selling artist with more than 4 million albums sold, followed by AC/DC, Lil Wayne and Coldplay. Sugarland finished No. 8.

Swift had two albums on Nielsen's Top 10 sales list: her self-titled debut at No. 6 and her sophomore album "Fearless" at No. 3.

"Taylor Swift is a great artist development story that started as organically as you can in the digital age," said Scott Borchetta, president and CEO of her label, Big Machine Records. "It involved online, non-stop radio tours and strategic TV opportunities which led to non-stop touring. But most importantly Taylor connected with her fans like no other artist in 2008."

Lil Wayne had the year's top-selling album, "Tha Carter III," with 2.87 million units sold, with Coldplay's "Viva La Vida" (2.14 million) and Swift's "Fearless" (2.11 million) rounding out the top three.

The top selling digital artist was Rihanna with 9.94 million tracks sold, followed by Swift and Kayne West.

Ironically, as digital downloads grew, vinyl album sales also climbed. In 2008, more vinyl albums were purchased (1.88 million) than any other year since Nielsen SoundScan began tracking sales in 1991.

More than two of every three vinyl albums were purchased at an independent music store during the year, the company reported. The top selling vinyl albums were Radiohead's "In Rainbows" (26,000 units), the Beatles' "Abbey Road" (16,500) and Guns 'N Roses' "Chinese Democracy" (13,600). 

Nielsen also reported that music sales exceeded 65 million in the final week of 2008, representing the biggest sales week in the history of Nielsen SoundScan. The previous record was Christmas week of 2007 with 58.4 million music purchases.

T-Pain Says He And Lil Wayne Are Making Progress On Joint Album, But First Up Is His Thr33 Ringz LP

'This T-Wayne movement is getting crazy,' Pain says on the set of album photo shoot.

By Shaheem Reid, with additional reporting by Yasmine Richard

We've had it all wrong: T-Pain isn't actually Teddy Penderazdoun. They're two different people ... well, entities. Pain is still Pain, but Teddy P is about a foot taller and North Carolina Tar Heel blue.

Pain introduced the mascot to MTV News last week on the set of his album photo shoot. Pain's LP Thr33 Ringz is due in September. DJ Khaled, Busta Rhymes and Pain's partner in crime, Lil Wayne, are all present and accounted for on the record. T-Pain also told us that the project between him and Weezy is definitely taking shape.

"T-Wayne is an entity that's just gonna take over a side of the game," Pain prophesied. "It's two artists that done collaborated with every artist in the industry except each other. Being that we getting together, this T-Wayne movement is getting crazy.

"He's sending me blank tracks, I'm sending him blank tracks," Pain elaborated on the project. "He's sending me tracks with hooks, I'm sending him tracks with hooks. It's just our hectic schedules are keeping us from recording. ... But we both have studios on the bus. So we take that tour bus anywhere we go it's a done deal."

Pain and Wayne collaborated on the next single from Tha Carter III, "Got Money," as well as the first official single from Thr33 Ringz, "Can't Believe It."

" 'Can't Believe It,' I just wanted to simplify things," he said. "Basically I got a lot of stuff on my albums that's not that simple. I'm not getting away from the simplicity of things, it's just basically a way to calm things down. Then I put Wayne on it and he keeps murdering tracks I'm sending him. It's just another world, it's unexplainable."

Pain describes the meaning of Thr33 Ringz as music being a three-ring circus with him as the ringleader.

Lil Wayne has reportedly been sued by a musical publishing company for using a Rolling Stones song without permission.

According to Reuters, Abkco Music Inc. claims that Lil Wayne sampled Rolling Stones' song "Play With Fire" without permission and used it on his song Play With Fire which is featured on Tha Carter III.

Abkco owns the rights to the "Play With Fire". They claim Lil Waynes version of Play With Fire uses "explicit, sexist and offensive language" and causes the public to believe that their company and the Rolling Stones approved the rappers version.

Abkcos lawsuit was filed in Manhattan federal court today (July 24) and seeks unspecified damages.

Lil Waynes representatives could not be reached for comment.

ROLLING STONES - PLAY WITH FIRE [LYRICS]
Well, youve got your diamonds and youve got your pretty clothes
And the chauffeur drives your car
You let everybody know
But dont play with me, cause youre playing with fire

Your mother shes an heiress, owns a block in saint johns wood
And your fatherd be there with her
If he only could
But dont play with me, cause youre playing with fire

Your old man took her diamonds and tiaras by the score
Now she gets her kicks in stepney
Not in knightsbridge anymore
So dont play with me, cause youre playing with fire

Now youve got some diamonds and you will have some others
But youd better watch your step, girl
Or start living with your mother
So dont play with me, cause youre playing with fire
So dont play with me, cause youre playing with fire

LIL WAYNE PLAYING WITH FIRE LYRICS

So you got so many diamonds
You wear all the finest clothes
And your grill is shining
As you're driving down the street of gold
But you can't blame me if I set dis stage on fire

[Verse 1:]
Mama always told me I was crazy
My hoes say I'm amazin but I don't listen 2 a lady
But the bitch say I'm hot and I say no bitch I'm blazin
Like wat the f**k u expect I'm a muthaf**kin cajun
And I feel caged in my mind it's like my flow is doin time
I go crazy inside but when it comes out it's fine like wine
Wait
Watch
See I get betta with time like a watch
Osch be gasch posh spice husband
Could'ntkick it like I kick it bitch I kicks it
No cereal like a land and I sticks it
Wateva she asks me after she licks it
That's too explicit but y u listenin
*SNIFFS* I smell smoke and somethin sizzlin
That's her p*u**yy so hey p*u**yy play with p*u**yy or play p*u**yy

[Chorus:]
But you can't blame me if I set dis stage on fire

[Verse 2:]
They say you're nobody til somebody kills you
But where I'm from you're nobody til you kill somebody
And you kno what they say
When you're great it's not murder it's assinate
So assinate me bitch
Cause I'm doin the same shit martin luther king did
Checkin in the same hotel in the same suite bitch same balcony
Like assinate me bitch
[? ]
I don't rap I film movies with my rap
You can call me Mr. Director Chair
Yea and that's a wrap
Cut
On 2 the next
Not to the next scene bitch the next check
Some say the X makes the sex pects
So play with the p*u**yy or play p*u**yy

[Hook:]
So you got so many diamonds(hey p*u**yy lay p*u**yy)
You wear all the finest clothes(go or die say p*u**yy and I say)
And your grill is shining(lay p*u**yy lay p*u**yy lay p*u**yy)
As you're driving down the street of gold(Hey p*u**yy)
But you can't blame me if I set dis stage on fire(Hey p*u**yy Don't Play p*u**yy)
Get em!

[Verse 3:]
Straight off the corner Apple and Eagle
Brave hard bitch like the times I'm medieval
Married to the game, Divorce the Cathedral
Standin on the corner selling Porcelean to People
Forced into evil, It's all in your head
It's also cerebral, call me Canival
You follow when I lead you
Straight to the needle
The barrel, the battle, the beetles will eat you
Mama named Cita, I love You Cita
Member when your p*u**yy Second husband tried to beat ya
Remember when I went into the kitchen got the **ltver
He ain't give a f**k I ain't give a f**k neither
He could see the devil, see the devil in my features
You could smell the ether
You can see Cita
You can see the Cita, see the Seether in my features
And she don't play neither

But you can't blame me if I set dis stage on fire

Another week, another batch of 2008 MTV Video Music Awards nominees handpicked by you at VMA.MTV.com and a select assembly of industry insiders. While the contenders for the Best Male Video and Best Female Video categories were revealed last week, this week brings us the five hopefuls who'll be vying for the Best Pop Video and the Best Hip-Hop Video Moonmen.

The Jonas Brothers earned their first-ever VMA nomination in the Best Pop Video category, as their clip for "Burnin' Up" makes the list, while embattled pop star Britney Spears got one of her own adding to last week's Best Female Video nomination for her "Piece of Me" clip. The Bros and Brit will face off against rock upstarts Tokio Hotel (who nabbed a nod for their "Ready Set Go" clip); alluring girl group Danity Kane ("Damaged"); and the Best New Artist winners from two VMAs ago, Panic at the Disco ("Nine in the Afternoon").

There are four guys and one classy lady up for the Best Hip-Hop Video honor: Lil Wayne, whose Tha Carter III sold more than 1 million copies its first week in stores, makes the list with his "Lollipop" clip, while Lupe Fiasco's "Superstar" video is also in the running. Flo Rida's "Low" also scored a nomination, as did Kanye West's "Homecoming" and R&B diva Mary J. Blige's "Just Fine."

But Lil Wayne isn't just a VMA nominee. On Friday, it was also revealed that he'll be taking the stage during the awards. No word yet on whether he'll be performing his VMA-nominated track.

Right now, you can head over to VMA.MTV.com and cast your votes in two new categories: Best New Artist and Best Dancing in a Video. Those nominees will be announced on next Friday's installment of "FNMTV." After that, one more round of voting will remain to determine the nominees for Best Rock Video and the one everyone wants, Video of the Year.

The 25th VMAs are scheduled to take over the legendary Paramount Pictures Studios in Hollywood on September 7, with the Jonas Brothers already confirmed to perform. Of course, additional acts will be gracing the VMA stage this year, and those names will be unveiled in the coming weeks. British funnyman and "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" co-star Russell Brand has been named as the show's host.

After chart-topping success from the Static Major-assisted "Lollipop" in spring, the subsequent Kanye West-spotted remix in summer and "A Millie" [click to listen] in between, Lil Wayne has confirmed his next single. The Deezle-produced "Mrs. Officer" will hit airwaves this week from the platinum-selling Carter III album [click to read].

Working on this album was a great experience. The chemistry that I have with Wayne is incredible, said Deezle [click to read]. Its creative, exciting and fast moving. I can throw an idea to him and get it thrown back to me not only as a great concept, but as a finished idea. This happens in just minutes. I thank him for believing in me.

The song features former Disturbing Tha Peace crooner Bobby Valentino [click to read]. Although billed as the third single from Tha Carter III, it is to be noted that both "3Peat," "Got Money" and "Mr. Carter" [click to listen] have surfaced on the charts with significant rotations.

According to rapbasement.com on the release day for Lil Wayne's new album Tha Carter III, he is being sued by a California business man. Le Marck de Andre and his lawfirm are seeking $123,800 plus $200 per day from Lil Wayne, Cash Money Records and Young Money Entertainment for work done to his 1999 Bentley Arnage.

De Andre says that he was contracted by Lil Wayne in October of 2005 to customize his Bentley. He says Wayne didn't pay the initial $78,507 for the first ten months so he terminated the contract and took legal action. My direct observation and experience with Dwayne M. Carter's financial and personal irresponsibility over the years has taught and demonstrated to me that he has become the new symbol of financial illiteracy and slavery in the 21st century, de Andre said in a statement.

After being nominated at the fifth Excellence in Music and Entertainment Awards (EME) for best new male artiste, Everal Ralston, aka Bragga Dat, still continues to keep a foot in the music industry with his latest single, Coupling King. Despite the Broadcasting Commission's ban on 'daggering' songs from the airwaves, the artiste said he was supportive of cleaning up the music. "Honestly, I feel good about it, even though my hit tune, Dagger Dat was a dagger song - the first dagger song to be recorded. It just allows us as deejays to be more versatile and think of ways to come up with different concept for songs. And from that I get Coupling King. It is not 'dagger', but still allows men and women be dancing within the dancehall." coupling king Bragga Dat is now signed to Hierarchy Records and will be releasing Coupling King on the One King Rhythm for the record company this summer. Bragga Dat's other releases include Couple-Up on the Wibble Wabble rhythm for Young *lo** Records and Look Dem Gyal on the Square Dance rhythm for Copper Shot.

I seen that mess and if you ask me they should have not slept together in the first place. She knows that Terrance aint got no sense and acts very childish. And he knows even if he was joking around with her that she takes everything to heart. I feel the whole mess is dumb and to answer everybody question Roxy is not coming back and Terrance will be leaving too because they will be fired because of the sleeping together and they brought all there personal problems to work. Because Terrance talks to her like she aint **** after he hit that and Roxy was talking **** cuz she thought they could of had something. But come on now WHY IN THE HELL would you think that, you work with a childish a** guy. What did you think was gonna happen, i seen this coming and im not suprised, i think they are both lame. 106 went down hill after Free & AJ left and might i add they was sleeping together too. That mess is unacceptable, i hope they find 2 good people this time that can keep it in there pants for there job sake, even though its not gonna matter i just watch it to see videos anyways.

win of Twins are claiming they were disrespected by the promoters of Fully Loaded, held on Sunday at James Bond Beach.

The duo, Paul and Patrick Gaynor, said they were prevented from entering the venue and were turned back by security at the entrance. The brothers had a pair of complimentary tickets.

The twins believe they were barred from entering because of comments on their hot new CD, Stir It Up Vol 8 - Trials and Crosses, about Fully Loaded promoter Sharon Burke.

The twins have been known to draw the ire of many people through their albums, which poke fun at issues and people in dancehall.

Patrick saidthat while they were engaged in a confrontation with security at the gate, a phone call between Burke and another security personnel resulted in them being turned away.

"We go and when we reach at the gate, a phone call was made by one of the security, saying 'Twin of Twins are making their way' and later direct orders from Sharon said 'They should not enter in no way or form'," Patrick said.

Burke, however, said she gave no such instructions as she did not even have a radio on her. She said her staff at the gate acted on their own.

"I know that my staff members were very upset with the way they disrespected me on their album, so I guess they decided not to let them in," she said.

"I didn't even have a radio on me, so why would they want to say that," she added.

Couple exchange vows at ceremony in London

 

Strictly Come Dancing runner-up Rachel Stevens tied the knot with Alex Bourne yesterday.

The couple, both 31, married at Claridge's Hotel in Mayfair.

Former Coronation Street star Kate Ford, 32, was among the 184 guests.

It's thought none of Rachel's S Club 7 bandmates were present.

An insider says the couple, who split in June after four months, are back together.

They are definitely happy again, a source tells Us Weekly.

Doug further fuelled speculation with posts on micro-blogging site Twitter.

What an amazing weekend with my beautiful girlfriend, he wrote. I love her so much!
