50 Cent has revealed that he and his G-Unit crew are back in the studio and gearing up to drop their second group album at the end of this year. The G-Unit album Shoot To Kill is coming out December 18th, so cancel Christmas, its over, 50 Cent told XXL Mag. Its a righteous kill.

The groups first album, Beg For Mercy, which was recorded largely during Tony Yayos incarceration, sold over 2 million copies when it was released in 2003. In related news, Funkmaster Flex will be premiering the Shoot To Kills first track Wanna Lick, which features Lil Kim, tomorrow on New Yorks Hot 97.

50 Cent also gets at Lil Wayne again. In the latest issue of King Magazine (November 2007), 50 Cent has some words for Lil Wayne:

You went after Lil Wayne on Part-Time Lover with the rhyme You make me want to kiss you like Baby do Wayne/And make you call me Daddy like Baby do Wayne/Damn, that s**t sounds gay, its insane/I guess thats the price a lil nigga pay for fame. Whats that about?

50 Cent: Ive already baited Lil Wayne to come on out so I can break his little neck. My consistency will break his neck the same way LLs consistency broke Canibus. Lil Wayne is a talented rapper but not a great songwriter. He has had great verses on other peoples projects, but they were not his complete ideas over production that he picked. Hes not marrying the right production and lyrics to make classic hit records.

But if hes not coming after you, why bother him?

50 Cent: Why not break his neck? I got nothing else to do. If they set you up to believe you are in a situation youre not actually in yet, then you go out there See, hes saying what hes saying to Jay because Jay didnt respond to him. Im giving him something to work off. Is that one of 50s laws? Yeah. Sometimes the best defense is a good offense.

Police said Sunday they have arrested five men in connection with the killing of reggae star Lucky Dube, who was gunned down in an apparent carjacking attempt last Thursday. Police spokesman Eugene Opperman said the men were arrested Sunday morning and will appear in the Johannesburg magistrates court on Tuesday. He said police seized two stolen handguns and a car allegedly used during the crime. Dube, who launched his career with criticism of the apartheid regime, was killed after he dropped two of his teenage sons at his brother's Johannesburg house. His friends told South African Sunday newspapers they believed it was a targeted assassination. But Opperman said police were sticking to the initial theory of a botched carjacking. Carjacking is rife in South Africa, which has gained notoriety for its high rate of violent crime.

He was shot in front of his 2 kids after bringing them to school R.I.P.

Reggae musician Lucky Dube was shot dead in a hijacking on Thursday in Rosettenville, Johannesburg police said.

Captain Cheryl Engelbrecht said the incident took place at about 8.20pm when Dube (43) was driving a blue Volkswagen Polo in the Johannesburg suburb.

She said Dube was dropping off his son in the area when he was attacked. "His son was already out of the car. When he saw what was happening, he ran to ask for help."

The hijackers were still at large. The boy was too traumatised to provide police with any information, Engelbrecht said.

Dube, born in Johannesburg on August 3 1964, was named "Lucky" as he was born in poor health and doctors thought he would die, according to Wikipedia. But Dube survived and went on to become a front-line artist in the reggae genre. However, the singer's website, Luckydubemusic.com, says: "Giving birth to a boy was considered a blessing and his mother considered his birth so fortunate that she aptly named him Lucky."

He recorded more than 20 albums in his music career, which spanned more than 20 years, according to Luckydubemusic.com. His albums include Rastas Never Die, Think about the Children, Soul Taker and Trinity. His latest, released in 2006, is called Respect.

The build-up to this international success, though, started in 1982 with the release of Kudala Ngikuncenga, an album that was not reggae but mbaqanga, a genre that was to serve him well for four more albums until his transition to reggae in 1985.

"The change was brought about by the fact that I wanted to reach the world. With mbaqanga I would have been seen as a tourist musician," he told the Mail & Guardian in an interview in 2001.

"Dont waste your time and mine, a concert promoter told Richard Siluma, Dubes producer at the time. No one wants to hear reggae.

By 1987, Dube was the sole reggae star among South African "disco" acts and established music acts such as Brenda Fassie, Stimela and the Soul Brothers.

His introduction to the international stage was heartening, such as when he was invited to play at the Sunsplash Festival in Jamaica in 1991. He recalled how the spiritual home of reggae had been waiting for him and his band. "We knew they love the music. They said we remind them of Peter Tosh." On the final evening of the festival they were called back for an encore -- and for another performance the next year.

The reggae sensation, who did not drink or smoke cigarettes or marijuana, despite the association of the substance with Rastafarians, had won more than 20 awards for his music contribution locally and internationally. He is the only South African artist to have a record signed to Motown Records, according to Luckydubemusic.com.

His reception on the international stage had been mixed, however. European audiences had argued that he sang world music and local audiences felt his music had changed to an extent that it flew over them.

This did not seem to bother him. "We have found that locally the audience does not grow with you. People expect me to still be doing Ayobayo, yet that was 1987 and this is 2001," he said in the M&G interview.

Dube always had to fend off questions of whether he was Rastafarian. "If Rastafarianism is about having dreadlocks, smoking marijuana and believing that Haile Selassie is God, then I am not Rastafarian. But if it is about political, social and personal consciousness, then, yes, I am," he said.

Although his idol was Peter Tosh, he acknowledged the unshakeable influence of the king of reggae, Bob Marley, whom he described as "the reason we know reggae".

Female deejay Spice, who recently gave birth to a son, says she has returned 'full force' to her music.

Spice says after the birth of her first child, Nicholas Orlando Lall, on August 22, 2007, she is wasting no time in jumping back into making music.

Spice says: "I wasn't away from the music for any extended time, because I did my last show when I was eight months pregnant and that was Portmore Awards and after that I left for the States and gave birth the following month. And I did a show over there in Atlanta with Lady Saw called Wifey and Matey Link Up and I think the baby was only about four weeks old that time.

"So I wasn't away from the music any long time, because from mi pregnant, mi plan out di whole thing because I never want to sit down for no long time," Spice commented.

Having returned to the island last week, Spice told The STAR: "Mi back pon di scene, because already mi have a show this Saturday in Mandeville at Fayers an dat a guh be my first show in Jamaica, an mi have song fi guh voice inna di studio."

Latest fashions


Giving a sample of her single I am Back, the artiste rang out: "I am back, wickeder than ever, dem think mi would a si down fi a year but neva. No mi neva deh yah but mi read di papa, mi hear sey certainan certainis ova."

Spice, also an entrepeneur says she opened a boutique recently.

"Well I just upgraded the salon, so the boutique is at the front. We have the latest fashions and brand like Ed-Hardy, Baby Phat. You name it and we've got it."

Spice has wasted no time in getting back down to business, but as it relates to her child, birth experience and having more children, Spice says that may never happen again.

"Well everybody use to tell mi sey it hot an mi a guh ball, but mi always use to sey no man, mi can manage di pain."

"But when di pain lick mi, a ball, a ball, a ball suh till, mi think mi did a guh dead. Mi never expect anything like that, I never thought I could feel anything worse than period pain. It was the worse pain I ever felt in my whole entire life," Spice said.

"No more children, dem road deh badda dan me, a nuh fi me."

Her son was born in Atlanta, Georgia after she decided that he would have more opportunities, open to him.

"...furthermore, I was told that there was a wider variety in terms of giving birth and seeing that it was my first time, I wanted to make sure I had everything."

Now that Spice is a mother, she says her outlook on life has changed in some ways, but for now, she will continue to be the same old Spice.

"Maybe in the next couple of years when he starts to become a man, I might change in terms of the lyrics and how I perform an him nuh si di whole rudenessÉI don't want him to look and say oh Mummy is so rude."

"But for now, I will do what I can because mi love di slackness, mi cyan lef it guh. Maybe if it was a girl I would have to change right away," Spice says.

However, she admits, "I use to squander a lot on clothes and shoes, but now when mi si how Huggies and baby feed expensive, wi haffi start think bout all kind a thing, his expenses, house, hospital an dem ting deh. Wi haffi guh ease back pon di party and di champagne an dem ting deh."


As a matter of fact, Spice says, being a mom is a great experience and she is enjoying every moment.


"I feel more grown as a woman and just the thought of looking at what I've created and everytime him cry yuh know that he's crying for meÉI love that, dem kind of bond is a nice experience," Spice said.

Spice says she is also happy with the choice of a father for her child.

"The father do everything, I couldn't choose a better father. Since mi come back, it come in like sey mi forget mi even have a baby because mi can sleep right through the night an nuh haffi get up. Him wi get up an mek him feed, change diaper, everythingÉhim good dem way dey; he helps me out a lot."

Spice says, the whole thing has brought them closer together, "because we get to bond more and spend more time doing similar things like watching the baby and trying to figure out who the baby favour more. From wi come back a Jamaica him friend dem nuh stop mout him an a sey bwoy wi cyan si yuh a road again."

As far as her post baby figure is concerned Spice says getting back in shape is going well so far.

"Mi gone back right down, di baby gi more 'boody' and more 'boobs', suh mi even more sexier than before. Di only thing mi haffi do now a exercise fi get di belly back flat like a willy penny."

As far as marriage is concerned, Spice says that will also have to wait.

"Mi nuh think mi ready yet for marriage, but if an when I ever get married, no one will ever know, but I'm definitely not ready yet."

KYINO SHOWERS WITH BUDDY - Nude Rising Star contestant and another man on video tape A video tape, featuring Digicel's Rising Stars fifth-place contestant, Kyino Cunningham, bathing with another man, has become quite popular on the Internet. THE STAR recently received an e-mail with two clips entitled, 'Bman ting dat'. The email with the now-infamous clips began being circulated after Kyino became an active contestant on Digicel's Rising Stars. The clips were being featured on the popular Internet site, www.youtube.com, before they were removed. The first clip in the e-mail shows an unseen male videographer entering a well-kept bathroom with a shower stall containing a naked Kyino Cunningham bending down beside a naked dreadlocked man. The naked dreadlocked man has his hand resting on Kyino's head as he tells him not to look up. The videographer responds, "There's not even any camera in here." The videographer then tries to push away the shower stall door as Kyino gets up and keeps his face turned away from the camera. Kyino's partner in the shower tries to protect him by using his hand and his body to block the camera, but the videographer pushes him aside. In the second and longer clip, the videographer tries to get a better view of Kyino as the other man in the shower gets out. The videographer exclaims, "I'm not recording anything Kyino, look here, yuh tink I'm recording anything. Why yuh tink I would record it?" Kyino responds, "Why wouldn't you?" Trust me Kyino then closes the shower stall door and the videographer says, "No hol on ... ." Muffled sounds occur as Kyino attempts to close the shower stall. The stall door is forced open again as Kyino continues to shower, while the videographer seems to taunt him saying, "Kyino yuh don't trust me ... eeh Kyino?" As the man who had been in the shower stands up fully naked and dries off with white towels outside the stall, Kyino continues to bathe, not paying the videographer any attention. At various points throughout, Kyino's face is clearly seen and so is that of the other man. The videographer runs his camera up and down Kyino's naked body and begins his tirade again by referring to him as the "upcoming Rising Star ... phone dis enuh". The videographer continues, "The only way I can delete this enuh Kyino is if yuh gimme a kiss." Kyino responds in a low voice that he doesn't care what the videographer does. He then gets out of the shower and dries off with a towel as the clip comes to a close. Efforts to reach Kyino Cunningham proved futile as his cellular phone was locked off. He was noticeably missing at the Rising Stars final show and concert at Mas Camp on September 27. Officials representing him refused to give any comments, telling THE STAR that the artiste was off the island. When contacted, executive producer for Digicel's Rising Star, Paula Pinnock-MacLeod, said that she had not seen the tape and could not comment on it. She further explained that having not seen the tape, she doesn't believe it affected Kyino's performance on the show.
Clips from the video

On Friday night at New York's Roseland Ballroom, Nas announced the title of his next album: He said it will be called Nigga and released in December. A source close to the project confirmed the name on Saturday.

Nas has said he'd planned to use that title for his last LP before he changed it to Hip-Hop Is Dead. If the December date holds firm, Nas will have a very busy winter. On November 6 he's releasing his Greatest Hits LP. A video for one of the two new songs on the project, "Surviving the Times," will be shot soon. Last week, super producer Jermaine Dupri who has already completed tracks for Jay-Z's American Gangster told MTV News he would love to be involved in Nas' upcoming new LP.

Nas headlined the last stop of the Sneaker Pimps Tour on Friday, where newcomers such as Mista Mal as well as legends EPMD and Slick Rick had sets. Even Jeru Da Damaja showed up and rocked the mic.

Nas kept fans antsy by not going on until well after 1 a.m., but they left visibly and audibly pleased.

He opened with "Hip-Hop Is Dead," then went into his catalog for records such as "One Love" and "Hate Me Now." God's Son ended with "Made You Look," during which he surprised the fans by jumping into the crowd. Once among the people, he began jumping up and down and inciting the people to jump with him. One of Nas' security guards dove into the audience after him, pulling him back to the stage, where he stood none the worse for wear.

"He touched my hand and gave me positive energy," one woman said as the house lights came on.

Besides phat rhymes, spectators saw some of the most exclusive kicks you can hope to get, as sneakers from all over the world were displayed. There was also a pit for professional skaters who sailed up and down ramps. Still, most of the skaters had to put their boards down when the acts came on, especially Nas.

HOW TO DEVELOP A PERFECT BODY in 30 minutes a day is a rather audacious title for a book, but if you will allow me to explain what I mean by PERFECT you will see that is actually quite sound and realistic.


In todays society, and indeed in the society of men from
the ages of the ancient Greeks, the men, and women of
society had an image in their minds of a perfect body.
This body has been admired and desired throughout the
ages. Great sculptures, great artists, and great
photographers have tried to capture this PERFECT
BODY in marble, oil and film. We have all seen these
bodies in this artwork again and again and have a clear
picture in our minds of what a PERFECT BODY would
look like. Still for reasons of personal preference, one
may desire a very large chest, or huge arms, or
extremely small waist, but all can agree on the basic
standards for a perfect body.

Whey unuh sey bout Norton antivirus? I think it's crap, what best to use instead?

T.I. was supposed to have his day in an ATL court this afternoon, but a federal magistrate kiboshed that plan, denied his bond and delayed the hearing until Friday. I'm serious!

The rapper, whose real name is Clifford Harris, is currently in custody -- and prosecutors want to keep him there 'til his trial, which could be months away! The magistrate will decide on Friday whether there was probable cause for Harris' arrest and whether he will qualify to be released on bail before the trial.

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports Harris was wearing a black shirt and black pants and was led into court with his hands cuffed and his legs chained.

He was arrested Saturday on multiple weapons charges.

 This afternoon, the ATF showcased the guns seized in the case (pictured below).

 

Giant Lamp Terrorises Old People

We are talking B-movie sci-fi classic material here, with a giant alien lamp poised to zap a terrified elderly couple on a park bench. Its OK though, because the crinklies are actors and the lamp is a special celebratory edition to celebrate the 70th birthday of the Original 1227 Anglepoise Lamp. And I love it.

Its up to 2.7m tall and looks like the scary big brother of the hopping Pixar logo lamp. It comes a 100W halogen bulb, casters for easy positioning and a dimmer switch.

This giant reading accessory will set you back around £1,660.

Jammie Thomas, 30, a single mother from Brainerd, was ordered to pay the six record companies that sued her $9,250 for each of 24 songs they focused on in the case. They had alleged she shared 1,702 songs in all.

It was the first time one of the industry's lawsuits against individual downloaders had gone to trial. Many other defendants have settled by paying the companies a few thousand dollars, but Thomas decided she would take them on and maintained she had done nothing wrong.

"She was in tears. She's devastated," Thomas' attorney, Brian Toder, told The Associated Press. "This is a girl that lives from paycheck to paycheck, and now all of a sudden she could get a quarter of her paycheck garnished for the rest of her life."

Toder said the plaintiff's attorney fees are automatically awarded in such judgments under copyright law, meaning Thomas could actually owe as much as a half-million dollars. However, he said he suspects the record companies "will probably be people we can deal with."

Gabriel said no decision had yet been made about what the record companies would do, if anything, to pursue collecting the money from Thomas.

The record companies accused Thomas of downloading the songs without permission and offering them online through a Kazaa file-sharing account. Thomas denied wrongdoing and testified that she didn't have a Kazaa account.

Since 2003, record companies have filed some 26,000 lawsuits over file-sharing, which has hurt sales because it allows people to get music for free instead of paying for recordings in stores.

During the trial, the record companies presented evidence they said showed the copyrighted songs were offered by a Kazaa user under the name "tereastarr." Their witnesses, including officials from an Internet provider and a security firm, testified that the Internet address used by "tereastarr" belonged to Thomas.

Toder said in his closing argument that the companies never proved "Jammie Thomas, a human being, got on her keyboard and sent out these things."

"We don't know what happened," Toder told jurors. "All we know is that Jammie Thomas didn't do this."

Copyright law sets a damage range of $750 to $30,000 per infringement, or up to $150,000 if the violation was "willful." Jurors ruled that Thomas' infringement was willful but awarded damages in a middle range; Gabriel said they did not explain the amount to attorneys afterward. Jurors left the courthouse without commenting.

Before the verdict, an official with an industry trade group said he was surprised it had taken so long for one of the industry's lawsuits against individual downloaders to come to trial.

Illegal downloads have "become business as usual. Nobody really thinks about it," said Cary Sherman, president of the Recording Industry Association of America, which coordinates the lawsuits. "This case has put it back in the news. Win or lose, people will understand that we are out there trying to protect our rights."

Thomas' testimony was complicated by the fact that she had replaced her computer's hard drive after the sharing was alleged to have taken place and later than she said in a deposition before trial.

The hard drive in question was not presented at trial by either party.

The record companies said Thomas was sent an instant message in February 2005 warning her that she was violating copyright law. Her hard drive was replaced the following month, not in 2004 as she said in the deposition.

"I don't think the jury believed my client regarding the events concerning the replacement of the hard drive," Toder said.

The record companies involved in the lawsuit are Sony BMG, Arista Records LLC, Interscope Records, UMG Recordings Inc., Capitol Records Inc. and Warner Bros. Records Inc.

At BET's Hip-Hop Awards in Atlanta last night, Kanye West won "Best Hip-Hop Video" -- and then tried to give it away! Complaining Kanye, who was a major whiner after not winning at this year's MTV Music Video Awards, was suddenly eating humble pie; after accepting the award for his song "Stronger," he tried to give the award to competitors UGK! Ugh!

Kanye accepted the award and then said that UGK's song "International Players," featuring OutKast, was more deserving, and handed the award to OutKast's Big Boi. Is he "stronger," or just "crazier?"

Big Boi handed back the award and told wacky West that he had no reason to be humble. Besides, Big Boi's got plenty awards of his own.

Confidence is one of those odd things in life that turn out to be surprisingly difficult to tie down (beauty and quality belong to this strange group too). You may think you know what it is, and you may feel certain that you can recognise it when you see it, but you may struggle to define exactly what ?it? is. Confidence is an everyday experience, something you have quite often, except on those all important occasions when it seems to leave you and you could really use more of it ? whatever ?it? is.
In this book, you can clear up the confusion around confidence, and particularly what you may refer to as self-confidence. You dispel a lot of the mystique around how you can develop and build your self-confidence; perhaps to an extent you feared would never be possible for you.

SHAUNIE: I WANT TO SAVE OUR MARRIAGE » Shaquille ONeals divorce battle may be postponed, as his wife Shaunie Nelson has filed papers to the court denying that her marriage is irretrievably broken down. The basketball legend filed for divorce last month claiming that his wife had been secretive about her assets particularly with respect to certain properties owned or titled in either (her) name alone or in other entities. However, Nelson denies this secrecy stating that she has nothing to hide. The wife of Shaquille is asking the court to grant her a three-month continuance so that she can attempt to save her marriage and ignore her husbands divorce application.

Charah Watson, and indeed all who are watching her case with Neto Meeks, will have to wait until December 6 for the matter to be heard again in the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate's Court. An outstanding medical report was given as the reason for the postponement. Watson and Meeks were both charged after an incident on September 28, which reportedly left both injured. Watson, a 23-year-old student, is facing a unlawful wounding charge, while Meeks has been charged with unlawful wounding, malicious destruction of property and possession of marijuana. Several blows The allegations are that on the day in question, a physical altercation develop-ed between the two. Meeks, it is alleged, was the aggressor. During the confrontation, Watson reportedly suffered several blows to the face and back, chop wounds to the forehead and bites all over her body and left eye. Meeks was reportedly bitten during the fight. The malicious destruction charge arose out of allegations that Meeks destroyed Watson's bedroom door in an attempt to get to her after she had locked herself in. Meeks' lawyer, Christopher Townsend, used the opportunity to tell the court that his client had been subjected to unnecessary public scrutiny and said he had already been tried by public opinion. He said Watson had spent the last two weeks playing up to the public and that Meeks had been receiving threats because of it. He asked Watson's lawyer, Valerie Neita Robertson, to "tell your client to stop." Neita Robertson, however, told the court that her client's actions were within reason and that she had everything under control. Neither of Meeks' parents - Amina Blackwood-Meeks and Professor Brian Meeks was present, but a host of supporters gathered at the courthouse on Watson's behalf. Both persons were ordered to give their fingerprints to the police and their bail was extended.

Jah Cure served eight years in jail. Now the reggae singer's sell-out shows face protests

A bitter row has broken out over the imminent British tour of one of the world's most acclaimed reggae stars, recently released from prison after serving eight years for raping a woman at gunpoint.

Jah Cure, the 29-year-old Jamaican Rastafarian who has been compared to Bob Marley, is drawing international attention for his heartfelt lyrics and melodies. His British tour this month is almost sold out and he is the subject of huge media attention in the US.

But women's rights groups have expressed anger at the way that Cure - real name Siccature Alc**ck - has reassumed his celebrity status just months after being released.

The Voice, the newspaper for Britain's black community, received complaints after it carried adverts for the tour. Campaigner Paulette Coombs has urged people to protest outside Cure's tour venues, while others have demanded he donates some of the millions of pounds he is expected to make from his music to rape victims' charities. 'He is able to move on with his life,' Coombs told the newspaper. 'Who cares about the young woman he raped?'

The victim, Suzanne Ferguson, who waived her anonymity to speak out after she heard Cure was due for release, told the Jamaican press last year: 'Every time there is a lot of publicity about Jah Cure, I have even more flashbacks.

'Sometimes I am so afraid to leave my house. It seems to me that entertainers are more valued than everybody else in Jamaica and, as a woman, I feel seriously undervalued.' She has claimed she was offered money by Cure's supporters to retract her claims.

But other women's groups are reluctant to join the protest. 'Jah Cure was not convicted by a jury and there were serious doubts about his conviction,' said Cristel Amiss, coordinator of the Black Women's Rape Action Project, based in north London. 'He has served eight years in prison. Those who call for a boycott of his tour are losing sight of the real issue, which is that only about 5.6 per cent of reported rapes result in a conviction. They are helping to perpetuate the myth of the rapist as a dark stranger.'

In interviews, Cure, who was released in the summer, says he wants to use his music as a form of rehabilitation. His new album True Reflections... A New Beginning was recorded behind bars.

'He's become such a conscious person, and all his lyrics are about peace and love,' a spokeswoman for his promoter told the Voice. 'Regardless of the hard times he's been through, he's seen it as God's will and he's stronger for the experience.'

Cure has already been the target of hate campaigns. Two years ago, a Jamaican radio station stopped playing his music after it received death threats. After his conviction, however, there was a groundswell of support for Cure, so called because he smokes large amounts of marijuana, which fellow reggae artists say makes him look well preserved or 'cured'.

Internet sites sprang up protesting his innocence and bearing the slogan 'Free Jah Cure'. A large number of reggae artists spoke out in his defence, with many suggesting that he was targeted by police for his Rastafarian beliefs.

Cure has declined to talk about the rape since his release, but his website insists that he wants his fans to know the two words most important to him are 'not guilty'. 'People can do their research, they know my side,' he told one interviewer.

Cure's supporters point out that no DNA evidence was obtained linking him to the crime. There are also concerns about the nature of his arrest: he was picked out by the victim on the street and was held without charge for a week.

At his trial. Ferguson told how she had memorised Cure's car licence plate, which enabled police to track him down. 'I was able to identify him because his voice was distinct. Anywhere I hear that voice, I will always remember it.'

Cure's tour promoter, Castro Brown, is no stranger to controversy. He has also promoted reggae singer Buju Banton, who has been attacked by gay rights groups. Banton's 1992 song, 'Boom Boom Bye', called for the murder of Batty Boys - Jamaican slang for gay men.

A relationship gone sour was cited as the reason behind a man's decision to attack and injure his 19-year-old ex-girlfriend and her new boyfriend.

Facing a charge of attempted murder is 39-year-old, Karl Vanhorne, of Zion district in St. James.

But when the matter was mentioned in the Montego Bay Resident Magistrate's Court, on Wednesday, the teenage complainant, who received 13 stab wounds from Vanhorne, told the court that she did not wish to pursue the matter.

RM Winsome Henry said that the complainant would have to give a statement to the police indicating her decision, but at the same time asked that the matter be investigated to ascertain why the complainant had a change of heart. She also suggested that the complainant receive counselling from the Victim Support Unit.

Vanhorne, who turned up at court sporting a neckbrace and crutches, was remanded in custody despite his attorney's pleas for him to be released on humanitarian grounds.

Defence attorney, Charles Sinclair, argued that his client sustained his injuries after he attempted to flee from a group of persons, with whom the complainant was travelling.

The attorney claims that this person attacked his client because they believed he played a role in the death of a man in Zion, who, residents said, was killed in cold blood by the police.

However, the court was informed that the accused jumped from the third floor of the Cornwall Regional Hospital in a bid to escape after he had stabbed the complainant.

Allegations are that on September 8, the complainant and her boyfriend were in downtown Montego Bay when they were attacked by the accused. The complainant's boyfriend was stabbed several times. Subsequently Vanhorne fled the scene.

It is further alleged that the complainant and her boyfriend were at the Cornwall Regional Hospital at the x-ray department to receive treatment for the injuries received when Vanhorne entered the hospital and proceeded to stab the complainant several times. She fell to the ground and the accused continued to stab her.

The court heard that several persons came to the teen's assistance and the accused man ran to the third floor where he proceeded to jump from the building. He fractured both legs, dislocated his hip and sustained injuries to his neck.

Vanhorne is scheduled to return to court on October 17.

With collaborations between Dancehall and Hip hop artist now proving to be commercially viable like in the case of NY Rapper Mims ft both Junoir Reid & Cham, Kat Deluna ft. the likes of the energy god Elephant Man and Eve ft Mr. Sean Paul himself, the cassava piece Gangsta DJ Mavado has joined the club with a scorching hot feature on Foxy Browns KOCH Records Album.

The single entitled FIRE looks to be the first release off the album which has seen some delay due to the female rappers current incarceration. Brown was sentenced to one year in jail for violating her probation on numerous occasions. Producer Bob Perry who represents Koch records visited Jamaica last week to meet with Mavado and management to commence work on the DJs portion of the single. Recorded at Dasecas Red Hills Road Studio Perry tracked Mavados vocals and will be adding it to Browns pre recorded intro and verses said to have been done months before her September 7th court sentencing.

Mavado who released his Gangsta for Life: Symphony of David Brooks album for VP Records in July has been breaking bread with some of hip hops finest including Wyclef, Uncle Sam and Busta Rhymes all of whom feature the Real McKoy DJ on their albums. All in all the collaboration promises to be a hit, KOCH has outlined that they have invested heavily in Foxy Browns current effort and will be rolling out the promotion campaign shortly. Her album is due out in November.

50 Cent has reportedly accused Def Jam Records of manipulating Kanye West's album sales.

According to New York's Daily News, 50 (born Curtis Jackson) made the accusations during an interview with British based magazine Uncut.

"He's never had a fraction of the sales 50 Cent has," Fif said. "They could have only one scan and have it count four times. West's entire career hasn't sold half what I sold on my first album.

Barbee escorted Desha Beenie rocked his daughter Desha Gayes sweet 16 party Tongues are wagging once again after guests at a sweet 16 party held in honour of Beenies eldest daughter, Desha Gaye, were surprised when Barbee, whose combination hit Give It Up with Beenie Man is all the rage in the dancehall, turned up at the Rebel T headquarters in Half Way Tree, St. Andrew on Saturday night. Held under the theme, Party Like A Rockstar, the venue was decked out in big swatches of clothe in bold psychedelic colours, graffiti spray-painted junk cars, and mini-ramps on which skaters and bikers pulled off stunts. Barbee turned up and escorted Desha Gaye into the venue after the teen exited a bright red Ford car with a souped-up engine. Desha and I were hanging out together for the nightI love all of Beenie Mans kids, they are fun, Barbee told Xtratainment. Barbee, dressed in a sexy black leather and lace mini skirt, looked stunning in her outfit and flawlessly applied makeup. She laughed and chatted with Beenie Mans children, especially Desha Gaye, on her special night. Initially, Barbee had called to wish Desha Gaye a belated birthday, but eventually made the trip from New York to Jamaica. I surprised her and came down for the party, I loved it, I enjoyed myself, it was really fun, she said. Barbee and Beenie Man barely exchanged a word during the party.
