Jamaica's Reggae Boyz beat Trinidad's Soca Warriors 1-0 @ the National Stadium
DESPITE an error-filled display, Jamaica's Reggae Boyz were still good enough to beatCaribbean arch-rivals, Trinidad and Tobago, 1-0 in a friendly international football match at the National Stadium last evening.
Dane Richards scored the winner, coolly slotting away a penalty kick at the 19th minute.
The penalty came from one of few good team build-ups by the Jamaicans when Eric Vernan was taken down near the six-yard area, as he burst forward looking to win a pass laid across goalmouth by Shaun Francis, one of two players given a senior team debut by head coach Theodore 'Tappa' Whitmore.
Jamaica also had a goal disallowed when Dever Orgill, who made his senior team debut as a second-half sub, rounded goalkeeper Jan Michael Williams and slipped the ball into the unprotected goal at the 73rd minute, only for the conversion to be waved away for offside.
Former St George's College schoolboy Marvin Morgan Jr also got his first start but, while both debutants showed a fair amount of confidence, their general play was like that of the team, largely unproductive and failed to enliven the gathering of nearly 8,000 which turned up despite the threat of rain posed by recurring showers over the past weeks.
Inefficiency
The major element of the locals' inefficiency was their passing, which was quite terrible as they turned over the ball with alarming regularity against a very ordinary team, more through carelessness than composure as they appeared largely relaxed in possession.
The turnovers were far more significant in the second half when Trinidad and Tobago introduced Keon Daniel to their attack and became more threatening in their build-ups.
Despite that, they lacked a real punch and hardly created a clear opening.
Their best opportunity came at the 17th minute when Yohance Marshall's header, off a corner kick taken by Trent Noel, was saved by Richard McCallum.
They got another decent chance in the second half when a defensive lapse allowed Cornell Glenn to win possession going wide to the byline. However, his attempt to cross to the unmarked Anthony Wolfe was blocked by McCallum, 20 minutes into a second half when they dominated possession but could not cut a route through the Jamaican defence.
This is where they differed mainly from the Jamaicans, who possess players with cutting edge and found a way though their defence on many occasions to create very clear scoring chances.
Richards, the scorer, and Ricardo Fuller made decent openings in a first half where Jamaica had a superior game. But Morgan, twice, Richards and Vernan had shots on goal fisted away by Williams.
Even during the second half when Jamaica failed to combine passes and were forced into kicking the ball from their penalty box while defending resolutely, they proved to be by far the more dangerous team by making bread and butter chances.
However, Ryan Johnson, who added some power to the offence, and Orgill both had excellent opportunities saved or placed wide, to sum up their off-key performance in a game they still managed to win.

Roger Clarke faces charges Former minister to be arrested for causing death by dangerous driving
Roger Clarke faces charges
Former minister to be arrested for causing death by dangerous driving
Thursday, October 07, 2010
DIRECTOR of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Paula Llewelyn yesterday ruled that former Agriculture Minister Roger Clarke be charged with causing death by dangerous driving in the case of St Catherine motorcyclist Daron Nicholson, 23.
According to the police, the DPPs ruling, done according to section 30(1) of the Road Traffic Act, was made yesterday
Neither the police nor Clarkes lead attorney, Queens Counsel KD Knight, could say last night exactly when the parliamentarian would be charged, but the legal team was arranging a date for their client to appear before the court.
We are working for an early court date, [possibly] a date for this week, Knight told the Observer.
The accident that claimed Nicholsons life occurred on Old Harbour Road on Monday, August 23, in the vicinity of Nightingale Grove, when the Toyota Prado Land Cruiser driven by Clarke collided with the motorcycle which Nicholson was riding in the opposite direction.
Yesterday, Knight said that Clarke, as expressed previously, regrets the fact that a young man died in that particular circumstance and that it has affected him in an emotional way. The lawyer, however, said his client would be cleared of any allegation of wrongdoing.
At the end of the day he will be blameless, Knight said.

Earth quake shakes Jamaica and Flooding fear grips St Elizabeth
The Earthquake Unit at the University of the West Indies confirmed the tremors epicenter was St Margarets Bay in Portland on the countrys north east coast.
The Earthquake Unit said the tremor occurred about 4:32 pm and lasted about 30 seconds.
Residents close to, or within the upper and lower reaches of the Black River Mo**** were hoping and praying yesterday that heavy rains forecasted for this weekend will in fact stay away or at least stay moderate.
For the most part water levels have subsided over recent days following the passage of Tropical Storm Nicole more than a week ago. But heavy showers in sections of the parish on Friday have boosted the flow of water to the Black River and heightened the fear level.
"Is just the rain is the problem now because you know the place flat, and the way the river behave the water will come down if there is a lot of heavy rain," New River egg farmer Derrick Scott, who suffered "massive" damage as a result of the Nicole rains, told the Sunday Observer by phone.
Scott, said to be one of the biggest egg farmers in western Jamaica, is reporting a loss of about 80 per cent of his 18,000 birds in the latest floods. He declined to put a money figure on his loss yesterday.
Scott is a long-time resident of New River, a community just north of Santa Cruz -- on the edge of the Upper Black River Mo****. It is among Jamaica's most flood-prone areas and yesterday Scott reiterated claims from New River residents that the current flooding in that community is "the worst it has been since 1951".
The Santa Cruz main road to New River remains cut off because of water several feet high. Residents of a number of smaller communities either side of New River, including Brighton just off the Santa Cruz bypass road to the north, are also being forced to take circuitous routes to and from the town because of flood waters.
Councillor Stallyn Brown (JLP, Santa Cruz Division) told the Sunday Observer that over 40 families in New River were with neighbours, friends or in approved shelters after flood waters took over their homes. Brown said more than 30 families had been dislocated in communities just off the bypass road.
Word yesterday from the north-west St Elizabeth town of New Market was that the water at the eastern end of the community was continuing to rise, rekindling memories of 1979 when virtually the entire town was covered, forcing an evacuation.
Access roads from New Market to Montego Bay and eastern Westmoreland remain blocked.
The National Works Agency said yesterday that while New Market continued to be of "grave concern" most of the major access routes in the parish that had been inundated a few days ago were now open. Maggotty, in the north, remained a "concern" but the water was said to be "receding" and the access road to northern communities was said to be partially open.
On Friday, the executive of the St Elizabeth Homecoming Foundation toured the parish with chairman of the organisation Donna Parchment pledging to give whatever assistance possible "while not trying to take the place of any authorised body or agency".
Former New York Council Woman Una Clarke accompanied the group on tour and Parchment told the Sunday Observer by phone that "we are hoping to make some sort of Diaspora link".
While expressing consternation at the level of dislocation in people's lives and the considerable agricultural and economic loss, Parchment praised what she called the "resilience" of the people of St Elizabeth who were "quickly getting their lives back together".
Yesterday evening, as rains continued to pound the island, the Meteorological Service upgraded its Flash Flood Watch to a Flash Flood Warning for all parishes until 5:00 pm today.
"An area of low pressure currently across the central Caribbean has been producing unstable weather across Jamaica," the Met Service said in a news release. "This disturbance is expected to linger across the region until Monday and will continue to influence the weather over the island during the period.
"Satellite imagery and radar reports indicate that large areas of moderate to heavy showers with embedded thunderstorms continue to move northward across Jamaica," the Met Service said, adding that the forecast was for continued outbreaks of showers and thunderstorms, especially over southern parishes, through to today.
The Met Service advised motorists and pedestrians against attempting to cross flooded roadways or other low-lying areas as strong currents are likely. "Residents in low-lying areas should be on the alert for rising waters and be ready to move quickly to higher ground," the Met Service said.

The ruling paved the way for a by-election Friday morning.

Bronx Gang Members Go On Torturous Anti-Gay Rampage After Learning A Recent Recruit Is A Homosexual
Fueled by hate for homosexuals, a sick crew of Bronx gang members went on a wave of sadistic violence that included forcing a teen to burn his gay lover with cigarettes, cops said Friday.
The cowardly creeps then made the 17-year-old watch as they sodomized the tortured man with a miniature baseball bat.
The gang members, who call themselves the Latin King Goonies, also sodomized another 17-year-old with a toilet plunger before capping their reign of terror by beating up and robbing a fourth person. The last man attacked was the older brother of one of the earlier victims.
"These suspects employed terrible, wolf-pack odds of nine against one, odds which revealed them as predators whose crimes were as cowardly as they were despicable," Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said.
Seven hoods, ages from 16 to 23, have been rounded up. Cops are looking for at least two other members of the cruel crew, Kelly said.
Their leader was identified by sources as 23-year-old Ildefonso (Cheto) Mendez. They're charged with unlawful imprisonment, abduction, assault, robbery, menacing and sodomy - all as hate crimes.
The suspects, including one who was taken out of the 41st Precinct stationhouse on a stretcher and transported to a hospital because of a seizure, were waiting to be arraigned last night.
They were still passing blame to one another last night, said a law enforcement source.
"Nobody wants to take responsibility for the plunger," the source said. "One guy is lying through his teeth."
"This was not part of an initiation," Kelly said. "This was a reaction to the fact that they had engaged in homosexual activity."
The arrests came just days after two young men were busted for attacking a gay man in the bathroom of the Stonewall Inn, the birthplace of the gay rights movement.
And with gay-bashing on the uptick - 44 attacks as of Monday compared with 41 at the same time last year - city leaders reacted with outrage.
"These attacks are appalling and are even more despicable because the victims were clearly targeted in acts of hate simply because they are gay," City Council Speaker Christine Quinn said.
"Bronxites will not tolerate any form of bigotry in our borough," Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. said.
The torture took place in an abandoned Morris Heights building across the street from a public school. Area residents called it the Goonie House. Gang members threw parties and had sex there. As many as a dozen pit bulls guarded the place.
"They'd have meets there every Friday," said a 33-year-old woman too terrified to reveal her name. "They're running crazy from there - hurting people, taking stuff. Latin Kings don't let gay people in their nation."
Kelly said the gang members didn't appear to be real Latin Kings.
The depraved violence was touched off by rumors that a 30-year-old Bronx man was having sex with the teenagers, police said. One of the 17-year-olds, who had been subjected to a beating a week earlier as part of a gang initiation, was cornered at 3:30 a.m. Sunday and dragged to the Osborne Place building.
There the Goonies stripped him, hit him with a beer can and cut him with box-cutters until he gave them the name of the 30-year-old man, police said.
Then the gang members sodomized the teen with the wooden handle of a toilet plunger, police said. Two hours later the violated teen turned up at a Bronx hospital and told disbelieving doctors he'd been mugged. They called cops, who got the horrible truth out of him, Kelly said.
Later that Sunday, at 8:30 p.m., the Goonies grabbed the other 17-year-old and dragged him to their torture chamber where they stripped him, stole his jewelry and beat him.
An hour later, they lured his 30-year-old lover there by telling him they were having a party.
The unsuspecting man arrived with a 10-pack of Four Loko, an energy drink laced with caffeine and liquor. For four hours, the Goonies beat the 30-year-old with their fists and a chain before sodomizing him with a small baseball bat,police said.
They also forced him to guzzle four cans of the Four Loko.
The savagery was too much for one witness, who bolted after encountering "a gang guy with blue medical gloves on with *la*hd on them," said a woman who knows the man.
"When he went inside, he saw two young guys tied to chairs, blindfolded, facing each other."
While the torture was going on, five of the Goonies peeled off and went to the 30-year-old's apartment just blocks away and let themselves in with his keys.
There, they roused his older brother and covered his head with a blanket while they beat him and demanded money.
"When he refused, the assailants placed a cell phone to his ear," Kelly said. "He heard his younger brother tell him that he was being held against his will and to 'Give them the money.'"
The older brother complied, and the Goonies fled with $1,000 cash, his debit cards and 52-inch TV.
They left him bound and gagged. He was able to free himself hours later about 1:30 a.m. Monday and went to his neighbor for help.
"He had his hands tied behind his back and his face was covered with tape," said the neighbor, who asked not to be identified for fear of retaliation. "I cut him free."
"He was crying and sweating," the neighbor's daughter said. "I was really scared - I didn't know what to say."
The family called 911, but the victim told cops only that he'd been robbed.
He didn't mention his brother was in danger, Kelly said.
It wasn't until 4 a.m., when the 30-year-old was found unconscious on the landing of his building, that cops began to suspect the attacks were related.
The sodomized man couldn't give police a clear account of what he'd gone through, possibly because of the Four Loko he was forced to drink, Kelly said.
On Tuesday, detectives tracked down his 17-year-old lover and the entire terrible tale came out.
When cops arrived on Osborne Place, they discovered the apartment had been scrubbed clean with bleach and repainted.
It was, in the words of one investigator, "the cleanest crime scene I've ever seen," Kelly said.
In the crowd of onlookers was a tipster who passed the number of Mendez, the reputed Goonies ringleader, to a uniformed officer.
"They could clean but they couldn't hide," Kelly said. nydailynews.com
Sources identified the other suspects in custody as Nelson Falu, 18; Steven Carballo, 17; David Rivera, 21; Brian Cepeda, 16; Bryan Almonte, 17; and Denis Peitars, 17. Cops are still hunting for Elmer Confessor, 23, and Ruddy Vargas-Perez, 22.
A sextape reportedly featuring Maybach Music head Rick Ross has hit the net.
A trailer for the video shows a large man with a beard in a hotel room kissing and fondling an unidentified woman and was reportedly recorded before the rapper's rise to fame and numerous tattoos.
Ross has yet to address his rumored film debut.
The Florida rapper was recently spotted filming the video for his single Ashton Martin Music.

Flankers residents hand over illegal guns to police
MONTEGO BAY, St James Commanding officer for the St James Police Division Superintendent Merrick Watson has credited community policing in the Flankers community for the handing over of two firearms by residents of the area to the police.
"What we are seeing here is the initial fruit of the hard work that we are putting in," Superintendent Watson told reporters yesterday at a press briefing at the Montego Bay Freeport Police station.
The weapons a .357 magnum revolver and an intratec submachine gun with four rounds of ammunition Watson said, were handed over to him. He declined, however, to say when they were received.
The community has had a history of violence and *la*hdletting and has been the scene of many protests by the residents.
But Watson said that since the introduction of community policing this year the residents have pledged to make the community peaceful.
"They have decided that enough is enough. They are tired of the fighting. They are tired of going to their beds at nights and wondering if people are going to come and kick in their doors, so they have decided that they are going to give community policing a chance," he explained.
He added that the handing over of the two guns was a clear signal that the residents have decided to work with the police, in an effort to make the community crime free.
The commanding officer, however, made it clear that the police would not rest on their laurels and would continue operations in the area.
"We know that this is a drop in the bucket (the handing over of the two guns) and that there are more guns out there and so we are still going to do our searches and raids as we continue to engage the residents," he observed.
Meet Japan's 76 Yr Old Shigeo Tokuda, The World's Oldest Porn Star.
Meet Japan's 76 Yr Old Shigeo Tokuda, The World's Oldest Porn Star. Who Made Hundreds Of Skin Flick's Before His Wife Ever Found Out!
If you have ever made the mistake of cheating on your woman, you know it's hard to keep it a secret for long.
That wasn't the case for Shigeo Tokuda. A 76 year old married grandfather, who just happened to moonlight as a porn star.
Tokudo got his start as a man w**** several years ago. He was approached by a man in a porn store who told him he would be perfect for XXX films because he had the face of a pervert.
What started out as a few small cameo roles has turned into a full time job for the retired travel agent, who earns $400-$500dollars a day starring in "elder porn."
Don't get it twisted though, "elder porn" isn't just with older women. Tokudo is blowing the backs out of young twenty something year olds as well.
His family might not have ever found out his "side profession", had it not been for a mistake by a production company that faxed the script to 'Prohibited Elderly Care Vol. 20' to his home.
His 35 year old daughter read it and his cover was blown.
You might think Tokudo would have been kicked out of the house by his wife, but that wasn't the case.
"My wife lets me do whatever I want now that Im retired, he says. Shes just concerned about my health and tells me not to work too hard.
After having starred in over 350 skin flicks, including the ridiculously titled 'Maniac Training of Lolitas', Tokudo has no plans to retire anytime soon.
Capleton Show In Chicago Cancelled From Gay Rights Pressure Tour In Jeopardy
Reggae artist Capleton is one of many reggae artist currently experiencing fallout from Gay Rights pressures.
Urban Islandz was reliably informed that The Gay Liberation Network (GLN) has forced the cancellation of Capleton upcoming concert in Chicago. The Fireman Capleton was scheduled to perform at the Kinetic Playground in Chicago this Saturday.
Last week Urban Islandz broke news that Gay Rights group GLN has stepped up pressure on the owner of the venue to cancel Capleton show, claiming violence and hate in the Reggae artist lyrics towards homosexuals. But the club owner Jim Gouskos told the media that he was not aware of Capleton hate lyrics and that he cannot afford the US$11,000 to cancel the concert. However, the GLN in a letter told Gouskos that they will be out protesting this weekend if the show was not cancelled.
In the letter to Roger Fraser the GLN representative told Gouskos about their intentions if there demands are not met.
No respectable promoter would knowingly schedule a performer whose lyrics promoted violence and murder against blacks or Jews or Muslims. We ask for and expect the same consideration to be made concerning LGBT people. Very few promoters want to be associated with murderous bigotry and calls from the stage to commit mayhem.
Capleton is currently embarked on a tour in the US to promote his latest album I-Ternal fire, which was released in the summer by VP Records. The tour maybe in jeopardy as Gay Rights groups are hinting to step up their pressure. Below is a banner they already have out.
Girl writes thesis about her f*** list...men check for your names!!!
Duke is in an uproar about a highly detailed "F*** list" that a recent female graduate made in PowerPoint, complete with penis-size evaluations and dirty talk transcripts. We've got that document, and spoke exclusively to the now-contrite author.
The full document begins at the bottom of the page.
Upon graduating, the author decided to pass on the wisdom she had learned, in thesis format. The subject: "An education beyond the classroom: excelling in the realm of horizontal academics." The thirteen subjects are each preceded by a tableau of photos of the men, most of which seem to be pulled from Facebook and athletic action shots. (There are lots of athletes on the list, including many players from Duke's lacrosse team, whose behavior has come under scrutiny in the past, though they were cleared of wrongdoing.)

Kartel signs deal with gays? - Allegedly agrees not to perform hate music
Vybz Kartel - File
Reports by Tjenbé Rčd, the Afro-Caribbean association for the struggle against all forms of racism, homophobia and aids in France, are that deejay Vybz Kartel has signed the Reggae Compassionate Act which calls for the artiste to halt all anti-homophobic lyrics or statements.
News that the Stop Murder Music (SMM) France campaign received a signed copy of the RCA surfaced on the Internet a few weeks ago. A copy of the document, which has the artiste's name and what is alleged to be his signature, was placed on the site, www.tjenbered.fr. It is claimed that he signed the document on September 22.
Attempts by THE WEEKEND STAR to reach Kartel were unsuccessful as he was unavailable for comment.
According to a release on www.tjenbered.fr, "signing this Code of Practice is an example of real progress in the struggle against all forms of homophobia in Jamaica, France and the rest of the world. The SMM coalition has been waiting for this since 2004".
When contacted David Auerbach Chiffrin of the Tjenbé Rčd told THE WEEKEND STAR that they considered the signing to be a "courageous and noble act of solidarity between minorities".
minority
He added, "I think it was very courageous for him because I know for sure it is not proper for him in Jamaica to sign it. But it is the 21st century we have to move forward. We know very well what it is to be a minority in France and we cannot allow a minority, black people, to fight against another minority, gays."
In 2007, gay groups in the US and Europe drafted the Reggae Compassionate Act, which called on dancehall acts to be more tolerant to homosexuals.
For years, protests from gay activists have dogged the careers of Jamaican artistes internationally. Deejay Shabba Ranks experienced the backlash after responding to a question about Buju Banton's Boom Bye Bye. Buju himself has been plagued across the globe with banned concerts since doing that song, while others such as Beenie Man, TOK., Capleton, Sizzla and Elephant Man have experienced similar pressure.
Kartel performed at the Elysée-Montmartre in France in late September and according to the release onwww.tjenbered.fr, attempts to stop the concert were being made by Ian Brossat, chair of the group of communist and Left Party elected representatives on Paris city council, counsellor for the 18th district, who had moved for a formal request to be sent to the capital's Prefect of Police asking him "to consider the risks to public order which might be provoked by" the singer's concert in the district.
It is alleged that after Kartel signed the Reggae Compassionate Act, the request was withdrawn in relation to this concert.
A concert which was to be held at the Elysée-Montmartre on Sept-ember 24 with reggae singer Sizzla Kalonji was subsequently cancelled due to efforts made by gay affiliates. The release added, "Vigilance is still required. Several performers of murder music have signed the RCA, then denied having signed it ... ."
According to Auerbach Chiffrin, they will be keeping on eye on Kartel to make sure he "respects his words".
Woman Mistakes Super Glue For Eye Drops, Glues Eyes Shut
"The bottles are identical and I am not young anymore, but I am not senile. I just did this because these are my precious eye drops."
That's what Irmgard Holm told MyFoxPhoenix after going through a nightmarish experience, that landed her in the hospital with doctors trying to pry her eyes open after she accidentally superglued them shut.
Holm, who had cataract surgery last year, reached for what she thought was eye drop medication, but instead was actually superglue. When she felt a burning sensation, she realized something was very wrong.
Holm attempted to wash the glue out of her eyes, but by that time they were sealed shut.
"It was a nightmare and a half," Holm says.
Paramedics and hospital staff rushed to remove the glue before her eyes suffered major damage.
"They had to cut off the glue substance. It was all hard, and it was in the eye and just everywhere. I couldn't even see,"said a still shaken Holm.
She wants companies that make superglue to change their packaging so something like this doesn't happen to more people.
"You can go infection, blindness, removal of the eye on something like this, please help."
My only question is, what the hell are the eyedrops and glue doing next to each other in the first place?

And there's more. The insider told MediaTakeOut.com that they had MORE VIDEOS, including her and a dude in FULL ON ACTION!!!
The going price for the tape was $100 Stacks . . . and you know our cheap azz, that's about 99 STACKS more than we can afford.
Be on the look out for the tape. Given how many people we are told were approached with the offer, we pretty sure it'll be leaked soon.

Toni Braxton is J$4 Billion in debt...files for bankruptcy!
LOS ANGELES Toni Braxton has filed for bankruptcy a second time, citing millions of dollars in debt and financial problems exacerbated by a heart condition that forced her to cancel a series of Las Vegas shows.
The filing will likely result in the six-time Grammy Award winner having to sell some of her assets to pay off debts listed in court records as ranging between $10 million and $50 million.
Her attorney, Debra G****green, said in a statement the filing will allow Braxton to pay off tax debts, sell heavily indebted property in Atlanta and still care for her children.

On Sep 29, 2010 Vybz Kartel signs Reggae Compassionate Act - Fra$SGeNiuS
The reggae compassionate act is not new but there was an hardcore bunch of artiste who put up resistance to the so called act. First of all there is a clear distinction between reggae and dancehall music, artiste has called for the act to be renamed the dancehall compassionate act, because reggae have not been targeting any group for any reason. Vybz Kartel have now signed the act, one of Jamaica's hardcore act in a bid to get some shows under his belt to support the Empire. The reaction of the rest of the dancehall community has not quite surfaced about this one. Buju, who have more or less complied with instigators of the compassionate act, has found himself in a scenario where it is being speculated that they are the same person who might have lead the charge against him.
We know that Kartel and his group can be unstable at times. Time will tell how compassionate they are--furthermore this act seem way short of outlining the consequences of a breach...
The act was signed just in time for the European tour...
Reggae artist Gyptian joins forces with Mary J Blige
Reggae act Gyptian continues to sizzle this year as he now joins forces with the iconic Mary J. Blige. Gyptian will be breaking from his tour schedule to join the R&B queen on the England leg of her UK tour.
He takes the stage on November 2 at The O2 Arena in London, the same venue Michael Jackson was slated to headline for his infamous This Is It concert. Gyptian then heads with Blige to the LG Arena in Birmingham on November 3, before resuming his own tour. Gyptian has been touring consistently since releasing his current album Hold You this summer, even joining Damian 'Jr Gong' Marley and Nas on several dates of their recent Distant Relatives tour of the United States.
Gyptian can be heard on Blige's new single, Anything You Want, which is expected to be on her new album. The reggae-infused track also features Busta Rhymes and has been receiving steady airplay since its release in early September.
This exciting concert collaboration was secured by Planet Reggae, the new booking division of VP Records/Greensleeves Records.
"These are the opportunities that come about by having the #1 record label in reggae enter the live-touring business," states Neil Robertson, head of Planet Reggae. "Our brand lends credibility and comfort for the major international talent buyers. When you combine that with a great artiste like Gyptian and a manager like Ivor Ruddock, who both understand the bigger picture, you can expect more high profile opportunities which are good for the whole genre."
Gyptian has been heating up the UK scene recently, with his performance at BBC Radio 1Xtra Live in late September, and will return on October 20 for the MOBO Awards, where he's nominated for Reggae Artist of the Year.

Probe into deadly Bahamas plane crash that killed 8
The incident yesterday resulted in the deaths of all eight people on board the pilot and his seven passengers. All of them were Bahamian.
It was around 12:20 pm when the plane, which took off from the international airport in the capital and was headed to San Salvador in the southern part of the Bahamas, went down in Lake Killarney.
Prime Minister Hubert Ingraham extended condolences to the families and friends of the victims and promised a probe.
All relevant government agencies are lending their assistance in this tragic matter. Further, a thorough investigation of the crash will be conducted by the relevant authorities, he said.
The aircraft was registered to Acklins Blue Company, an air charter company based in the Bahamas.
