buju-banton-gay-war.jpgEven though Buju Banton recently met with a group of gay leaders and activists things have not change a bit as OutAroad.com understands that the gays are still pushing hard to wreck the Gargamel career.

According to towleroad.com they quoted the Banton saying, "This is a fight, and as I said in one of my songs 'there is no end to the war between me and faggot' and it's clear. The same night after I met with them (gay associates), they pepper-sprayed the concert. So what are you trying to tell me? I owe dem nothing, they don't owe I nothing."

Banton explains that he only met with the gays because Supervisor Bevan Dufty, who is running for San Francisco Mayor, made a request:

"It is not about boxing food out my mouth, if a that I would have surrendered to the system a long time ago. The mayor of San Francisco, or the mayor-to-be, claimed that I was in his district and that it was imperative for him and his organisation to meet with me to further see what kind of personality or character (I have)."

Buju Banton meets with LGBT activists in San Francisco

ldb674.jpgIn the wake of cancellations of most of the show on his US tour, Jamaican dancehall singer Buju Banton, met yesterday for 40-minutes in San Francisco with gay right activist to discuss his differences with the LGBT community.

The meeting, organized by SF mayoral candidate and supervisor Bevan Dufty, also included, executive director of the SF gay community center Rebecca Rolfe, Equality California’s Andrea Shorter, SF Supervisor Eric Mar and activist Michael Petrelis.

The group explained that American gays are not singling Banton out, as they also advocate for gay tolerance in Jamaica, and have also applied pressure on the Jamaican government and business leaders to affect change that benefits gays across the island nation.

Petrelis said on his blog…
“The meeting was very civil and productive, even though at times I had to play the “bad cop” activist, especially when Buju was dominating the discussion, and we made several suggestions for him to consider, in order to start to undo some of the problems he has in the gay community because of his past anti-gay lyrics.”

Petrelis also said the group proposed that Banton think about making statements in Jamaica calling for love toward gays, donating to the JFLAG group, hold a town hall meeting in Kingston about the need to respect gays, and sing about loving gay people.

All of the groups’ suggestions were rejected by Banton and his people according to Petrelis. Banton was scheduled to perform in Chicago, Las Vegas, Dallas, Houston and other cities, however, after a campaign that was initially organized by the LA Gay & Lesbian Center, and the liberal website change.org against Banton, clubs began to cancel his appearances.

Bounty Killer did not get the chance to "Cease Fire” with his arch-rival Vybz Kartel over the weekend at a concert which was held at the George V Park in Port-of-Spain as he was denied entry into the country by Immigration officers at the Piarco International Airport.

Information reaching OutAroad.com is that Bounty who was expected to perform at the Cease Fire concert arrived at Piarco Airport minutes after 8pm last Friday (October 2, 2009) onboard flight BW 415. However, as soon as Mr. Cross, Angry, Miserable exits the aircraft and approached Immigration they immediately informed him that he was not granted permission to enter the Country. Bounty Killer had to wait 12 hours for the next available flight back to Jamaica.

According to newsday.co.tt, a source close to the concert promoter, Jacho Entertainment, claimed that they were given no logical explanation as to why Bounty Killer was denied entry. The source said initially they were told that Bounty Killer failed to produce a work permit and then they were told that he was given no permission to enter Trinidad. Local artiste Ken Charles, also known as KMC, slammed the authorities for denying Bounty Killer entry to the country and said that the promoter should sue the State.

Even though patrons were upset with the Immigration decision fans still turned out in their numbers to witness a brilliant performance from Vybz Kartel along with a few members of his Empire.

Ladies beware of the Date Rape Pill (Rohypnol)?

gang-girl-men-raped.jpgOutAroad.com gets to understand that a letter has been circulating stating that five men, who according to hospital and police reports, gang raped a young woman, who they took to the Zen nightclub in Trinidad on a Saturday night.

Tests later confirmed repeat rapes and along with traces of Rohypnol in her blood and Progesterex, which is essentially a small sterilization pill.

The drug is now being used by rapists at parties to rape and sterilize their victims. Progesterex is available to vets to sterilize large animals. Rumour has it that Progesterex is being used together with Rohypnol, the date rape drug. As with Rohypnol, all they have to do is drop it into the girl's drink. The girl can’t remember a thing the next morning, of all that had taken place the night before.

Progesterex, which dissolves in drinks just as easily, is such that the victim doesn't conceive from the rape and the rapist need not worry about having a paternity test identifying him months later. The drug's effects ARE NOT TEMPORARY-They are P*E*R*M*A*N*E*N*T! Progesterex was designed to sterilize horses. Any female who takes it WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO CONCEIVE. The weasels can get this drug from anyone who is in vet school or any university. It's that easy, and Progesterex is about to break out big everywhere.

Believe it or not, there are even sites on the Internet telling people how to. Please SEND this STORY to everyone you know, especially girls! Be careful when you're out and don't leave your drink unattended. Please make the effort to PASS this on to all you know!! Guys, please inform all your female friends and relatives.

Is it a Hoax?

However, according en.wikipedia.org Progesterex is a fictitious date rape drug. It is part of a hoax that began to circulate in 1999 via e-mail on the internet. No actual drug by this name or even with these properties exists, and no such incident has ever been documented or confirmed.

Ladies even if the Date Rape story is not true please use this as a reminder to not be stupid when out drinking up with people - male or female you know or don't know"

Steelie Reflects on Steely: Steelie Bashment Mourns the Death of His Namesake

steely_and_clevie_456_001.jpg

I am deeply saddened by the passing of Wycliffe 'Steely' Johnson. His passing is a tremendous loss to the Dancehall industry, and a tremendous loss to me personally -- Steely is the man who sparked my love of music and inspired me to be a selector.

Talk to anyone who grew up with me, and they'll tell you that I idolized Steely from Silver Hawk Sound. When I struggling to establish myself as a selector in the early days, I adopted the name 'Steelie' with the goal to one day have my own sound and be at the top of the game -- like Steely.

As part of the legendary production team Steely & Clevie, Steely gave us those signature sounds like the Punanny Rhythm, the Street Sweeper Rhythm, Skettel...Nine Night...Sniper...Sleepy Dog...I could go on and on and on. He was part of the genius behind Dancehall classics like Shabba's "Ting-A-Ling," and "Twice My Age;" "Sorry" by Foxy Brown; "Double Trouble" by Beres Hammond; "Boops" by Supercat; "Murder Dem" by Ninja Man; "Ram Dancehall" by Tiger; "Hot Gyal Today" by Sean Paul & Vegas...and that's not even the half.

Veronica Campbell-Brown Defends Her Decision

By Secret Agent
OutAroad.com Writer

veronica-campbell-brown.jpgVeronica Campbell has come forth to defend her reason for not running on the winning 4x100m relay team yesterday(August 22, 09) at the World Championships held in Berlin.

Veronica Campbell said that the staff and management team was unprofessional for requesting her to run the third leg couple of hours before the race. According to Veronica, it was impossible for her to run the third leg because that was not what she had practiced for.

The double Olympic 200 metres champion Veronica also mentioned that she would never turn her back on her country because whenever she attends or representing for Jamaica at these games her aim is to get the National anthem hammering through the speakers around the stadium.

According to a source from the Jamaican camp, "she made the right move because if she had ran the leg and did not pull through for Jamaica then everyone would also be blaming her for being selfish to run the third leg especially the fact that her toe was wrapped in Kinesio-tape because of a toe injury.

The source also added that this is not the time to be pointing fingers at anyone because even though she did not run - the other girls still went out there and represent for Jamaica, which shows there are multiple talents in the camp and if one person is sick then they should not be afraid to replace that person but make sure it's done way before the required time.

Michael Jackson Death Now Confirmed

By NEKESA MUMBI MOODY and DERRIK J. LANG, Associated Press Writers Nekesa Mumbi Moody And Derrik J. Lang, Associated Press Writers

michael-jackson-funeral_death.jpg

LOS ANGELES - Michael Jackson, the moonwalking former child star who became known the world over as the "King of Pop" before his life and career deteriorated in a freakish series of scandals, died Thursday, a person with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press. He was 50. The person said Jackson died in a Los Angeles hospital. The person was not authorized to speak publicly and requested anonymity.

The circumstances of his death were not immediately clear. Jackson was not breathing when Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics responded to a call at his Los Angeles home about 12:30 p.m., Capt. Steve Ruda told the Los Angeles Times. The paramedics performed CPR and took him to UCLA Medical Center, Ruda told the newspaper.

Jackson's death brought a tragic end to a long, bizarre, sometimes farcical decline from his peak in the 1980s, when he was popular music's premier all-around performer, a uniter of black and white music who shattered the race barrier on MTV, dominated the charts and dazzled even more on stage.

He was perhaps the most exciting performer of his generation, known for his feverish, crotch-grabbing dance moves, his high-pitched voice punctuated with squeals and titters. His single sequined glove and tight, military-style jacket were trademarks second only to his ever-changing, surgically altered appearance. Over the years, his skin became lighter and his nose narrower.

Michael Jackson Hospitalized - Death Unconfirmed

Source: foxnews.com

050608_michael_jackson_vmed.widec.jpgMichael Jackson was rushed to a Los Angeles hospital Thursday afternoon, police told FOX News, but his condition wasn't immediately clear.

TMZ reported that the legendary singer, 50, went into cardiac arrest and had to receive CPR in the ambulance. Joe Jackson, his father, told multiple news sources that his son is not doing well.

Paramedics responded to a 911 call at around 12:26 p.m. PDT, the Los Angeles Times reported. He was reportedly not breathing at the time of their arrival.

A Jackson spokesman was unavailable for comment.

Jackson, the youngest brother in Motown's legendary Jackson 5, earned the name 'King of Pop' as a solo act in the 1980s, when he became one of the best-selling musicians in the world, particularly for the hit album "Thriller."

His star power has faded considerably since then, partly because of allegations of child molestation.

Chris Brown gets probation, labor for Rihanna assault

chris_brown_sentence_rihanna.jpg

Chris Brown pleaded guilty Monday to count of felony assault on pop star Rihanna.

Brown entered his plea before a preliminary hearing was scheduled to start in Los Angeles on Monday. Rihanna had been on standby to testify.

After Brown left the courtroom, Rihanna was addressed by Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Patricia Schnegg, who explained to the Barbados-born singer that she had issued a stay-away order, requiring Brown and Rihanna stay at least 50 yards from each, except at industry events when the distance is reduced to 10 yards.

Brown's lawyer, Mark Geragos, said the plea deal includes five years of supervised probation and six months of community labor. Brown will be formally sentenced on Aug. 5.

Schnegg accepted Brown's plea, but specified the community service must entail hard labor, citing Caltrains cleaning or graffiti removal as an example. She said Brown likely will be allowed to do his community service in his home state of Virginia. He'll also be required to attend domestic violence classes.

Lawyers for Brown, 20, and Rihanna, 21, refused to discuss the status of the pair's relationship. Brown was arrested Feb. 8, after police say he hit and threatened Rihanna after leaving a pre-Grammy party in Los Angeles.

"Best of The Best was boring," said Patrons

bestbest-miami.jpg

When the OutAroad.com team and other media houses arrived at the Best of The Best event held in Miami, we were all treated like prisoners as the promoters restricted us from moving freely. The stage was not media friendly because Photographers/videographers were only allowed to shoot the artistes from the left side only. However, shortly after that side profile "luxury" came to an end as the promoters decided not have any photographers or videographers near the stage. Therefore, since there was nothing to capture - the OutAroad.com team decided to capture the views of the patrons listed below.

Loraine aka Lora, Age: 24
This will be my last time attending this show it has nothing to offer. I enjoyed Destra and Beenie Man performances they both represented for their countries. Mavado mi dads mi lose off a yuh, you should have never performed along with the Alliance, Mavado has too much hit songs fi a share mic with Bounty, Serani and Kiprich. Mavado needs to know his true potential and stop acting like he's a child - it's time for him to step out of Bounty's shadow and grow up that Alliance thing not working for him anymore - time fi him start focus on the youths dem from the Gully.

------------------------------------------------

Comar Daley, Age: 20
A Gaza mi seh and will never stop saying Gaza, yow mi can’t wait fi Kartel get back him visa and teach di Alliance how fi work stage shows, Serani, Bounty, Kiprich and Mavado all together couldn’t even mek one. Serani nuh sound good, Bounty songs dem old, Monster Empire were not there for Kiprich to clash wid and Mavado was just not in the mood to perform. Beenie Man should have been the one to close the show, these artistes need to ask Beenie Man what's his secret for giving a good performance.

------------------------------------------------

Camilla Edwards, Age: 26
Personally this show should have named Best of The Worse, mi nah lie some of the artistes apart from Beenie Man tried to entertained but mi never expect Elephant Man fi displayed such a boring performance and then here comes Serani right after Elephant Man who seems to be searching for the right voice to sing his songs, mi love Serani songs but him must know seh the way how yuh dress has a lot to do with connecting with the crowd, so when him ran on pon stage in a stripe polo shirt and waan old pants dat nuh mek it. Beenie Man is really di king of the dancehall because while performing Beenie realized that him never a gwaan wid nothing and then right away him just lift him performance level and done di place, by dissing up Bounty and the Alliance.

Bolt and an unnamed female passenger were taken to a hospital in Spanish Town but neither was seriously hurt, according to police Sgt. David Sheriff.

"(Bolt) is being treated now, but it's nothing serious and I cannot say anything more," a doctor at the Spanish Town hospital west of Kingston said.

"Lyrics that seem to promote violence have raised concern and led the government to deny the rapper a performance permit," said Senator Ann Peters (Health Minister & Chairman of Grenada's National AIDS Council).

Although there are numerous allegations as to why the show was cancelled, the reason was time inefficiency and late entry of the paperwork to the Canadian Embassy in Jamaica.

What's Next For Chris Brown After Not-Guilty Plea?

By Gil Kaufman with Jayson Rodriguez

chrsit-brown-court-case-rihanna.jpg

Now that Chris Brown has entered a not-guilty plea to felony charges of assault and making criminal threats, what's next for the 19-year-old singer?

Brown, who appeared in a Los Angeles courtroom on Monday to enter the plea in the case stemming from an alleged February 8 assault on girlfriend Rihanna, must now either face a trial in the case or cut a plea deal that would spare him from the maximum penalty in the case, four years and eight months in a federal prison.

Rihanna's attorney, Donald Etra, told reporters after the hearing on Monday that his client is hopeful that a plea deal can be worked out so that the case could be quickly resolved, according to a RReuters report. But he reiterated that if ordered to testify against Brown she would do so. Brown's attorney, Mark Geragos, has not returned multiple calls from MTV News requesting comment on the case and he did not speak to reporters after Monday's hearing.

Judge Patricia Schnegg set an April 29 status hearing for Brown and his attorneys, at which time a preliminary hearing could be scheduled. The prosecutor in the case will present the state's evidence at the preliminary hearing and Brown's attorneys will have a chance to examine the evidence and make motions and cross-examine the witnesses. At the end of that hearing, the judge typically determines if there is sufficient evidence to move the case to trial.

Statement on Assassin's Red Stripe Live Abruptly Ended Performance

assassin_girls_male_boy_dancehall_photos.jpgKingston, Jamaica: -- The Jamaica Reggae Industry Association (JARIA) notes with concern that the performance of Jeffery "Assassin" Campbell was abruptly discontinued at the recently held 'Red Stripe Live' concert, due to a misunderstanding on the part of the promoters. We wish to express dissatisfaction with respect to the artiste's performance being prematurely terminated as a result of a perceived violation of the rules of engagement by Red Stripe.

Red Stripe has since apologized for their action. JARIA notes however, the apology did not clearly indicate that Mr. Campbell in fact lived up to his contractual obligations, including his participation in two Red Stripe Representative supervised rehearsals. While the apology is a step in the right direction, enough has neither been said nor done in an attempt to repair any damage which may have been done to the artiste's reputation. We wish to recommend that if Red Stripe, or any other sponsor, has concerns about the lyrical content of an impending performance (following observations of the rehearsals), that it should communicate such reservations to the artiste immediately and unequivocally.

By Jayson Rodriguez
Source: mtv

ti-murder-trial.jpgATLANTA --- A Northern Georgia District judge sentenced T.I. to one year and one day in prison on felony weapons charges Friday (March 27), calling the rapper's plea deal "experimental" but a success.

Judge Charles Pannell Jr. told the rapper he had more than exceeded the court's expectations, and he hoped his case would inspire similar plea deals.

As a part of the plea deal T.I. (real name: Clifford Harris) struck last March, the year-and-a-day sentence was expected. The rapper is also required to complete 1,000 hours of community service before turning himself in, and another 500 hours after completing his sentence. He also must pay a $100,000 fine.

Tip is scheduled to report to prison voluntarily within the next six to eight weeks. However, the judge acknowledged that the rapper has agreed-upon commitments what will not allow him to enter prison before May 19.

T.I., in a charcoal-grey suit and matching black dress shirt and tie, delivered a sober speech to the judge. His 10-minute speech details his misguided youth, the death of his best friend Philant Johnson in 2006, and his desire to use his mistakes for a positive end.

Chris Brown Gets Back to Work Amid Legal Crisis

chris_brown_court_in_photos.jpgOrdinarily, the posting on Chris Brown's MySpace page would be routine promotion for a musical artist at the top of his game.

"Vote for Chris on the Kids' Choice Awards 2009," says the message, which includes the balloting links for his two nominated categories. "Thank you for your support."

But these are not ordinary times. On the same day Brown was soliciting awards show support, the 19-year-old R&B star was facing a Superior Court commissioner in Los Angeles after being charged with felonies for allegedly beating girlfriend Rihanna a month ago.

As his legal crisis persists, Brown is attempting to focus on business as usual, even if there's nothing usual at all about his circumstances. In recent days, he has been spotted going to recording studios in California and Florida, plugging away on his third album, due out later this year, which he started before his alleged attack on Rihanna.

No more Passa Passa, Dutty Fridaze or Bembe?

passa_passa_jamaicadancehall.jpg

Yow! An mi a seh flick it like a dollar - an mi a seh roll it like a ten-cent- an mi a seh "Daggering" never postpone," are the words Bragga's uttered in his 2008 hit single "Dagga Dat". However, since of late his statement above which declares that Daggering never postpone did not stand grounds for long as the Broadcasting Commission has "flicked" the "Daggering" script like a one-cent and rolled all "Daggering" songs from off the air waves and TV stations "like a roller-coaster."

So far, the Broadcasting Commission has been successful in ridding the airwaves and TV stations of these "Daggering" songs. But more problems seems to be on the rise for the Dancehall Fraternity as The Jamaica Council of Churches (JCC) are now lobbying for the government to put an end to several street sessions (party) such as Passa Passa, Bembe, Dutty Fridaze to name a few.

According to the JCC, these sessions should also be held responsible for the promoting of sexually crude songs that are filled with lewd lyrics.

Alliance leader Bounty Killer is set to stand trial on May 12 for his recent run in with the law.

According to reports, Bounty Killer aka Warlord whose real name is Rodney Price was accused of breaking seven red lights, obstructing traffic and refusing to do a breathalyzer test.

Senior Magistrate Owen Parkins dismissed Beenie Man's tax case when Beenie Man's attorney declared a no case submission. . (Income taxes was improperly drafted)

However, OutAroad.com gets to understand that the Government’s tax department is still not pleased with the ruling and is now in the process of appealing the decision.

If the tax department can produced sufficient evidence to support their appeal then matter will be heard this year.

Ding Dong led Ravers Clavers attacked at Fresh Fridayz

By Sanya Harrison
OutAroad.com Writer

A Deliberate Attack On The Dancehall Fraternity?

ravers_clavers_ding_dong_dancers.jpgThe death of dancehall legend Gerald Levy aka ‘Bogle’, whom can be credited for dances such as the ‘Bogle’ and ‘Zip It Up’, shocked the dancehall fraternity when he was fatally gunned down on January 20, 2005. The controversial figure was at the height of his career with new moves such as the Willie Bounce, Sesame Street, and Summer Bounce. He also coined phrases such as “All dem deh - weh all dem deh did deh? And “Eeh a lie” when his success was cut short.

The recent attack on members of the famous Ding Dong led Ravers Clavers crew at the popular Fresh Fridayz, has aroused serious concerns as to the safety of our dancers. The loss of major figures in that section of the dancehall fraternity has left many in a tailspin of questions as to what are the real reasons behind these attacks.

Overmars the creator ofRaging Bull told OutAroad.com that “A nuff ‘prements’ a gwaan in di streets yuh don’t know who like yuh or who have yuh up in a dem heart. A man see the dancers dem a elevate dem selves an nuh like dat, si Bogle dead an gone now Ice every dancer haffi watch what dem doing.”

Hunts Bay Police recovered Maia Chung’s Van - Scrapped

maia_chung_van.jpgThe Hunts Bay police recovered the stolen van belonging to Maia Chung’s Autism & Disabilities Foundation on Monday (January 26, 2009). The cops also have several suspects behind bars in relation to the crime. However, the van is now useless to the Foundation as the heartless thieves scrapped the vehicle.

While the Foundation and its principals are happy, that justice was served to a certain extent. There is now a huge gap in the services to the disabled that the Foundation won’t be able to fill until they can manage to repair or buy a new vehicle. These thieves have made the lives of the disables even more miserable than how it is already. Those who are awaiting vital life sustaining assistance are now left “championless”, as the Foundation was fulfilling gaps that both state agencies as well as many family members of the clients of the Autism and Disabilities Foundation were not able to do.

Maia Chung told Outaroad.com, "I was really encouraged by the great outpouring of love and prayers from your loyal readers, it made us all feel better and we really respect this webzine for making our plight a public issue, perhaps because your team revealed the tale justice was served. But what do we do now ...?". The Foundation is now floundering.

Beenie Man was not shot - but warrant out for Moses

By Kon-Vick
OutAroad.com Writer

moses_gospel_artiste_gun_shot.jpgLate last night up until this morning, OutAroad.com has received tremendous amount of phone calls and emails asking if it’s true that Beenie Man got shot. However, after doing our own investigation OutAroad.com gets to understand that a warrant was issued for the arrest of Moses.

This is where the rumor stems from - the Moses that the cops are looking for goes by the name Kasim Grant who’s more popular known as Moses in the gospel world.

The real story
According to police reports gospel artist ‘Kasim Moses’ Grant who’s a resident of the Gordon Town community got into an argument with his cousin - minutes after Moses pulled a hand gun and fired several shots at his cousin who escaped injuries. A friend of the family intervened and got into a struggle with Moses but was shot in the hand. The police also revealed that Moses is not a license firearm holder so it’s clear that he might commit the act with an illegal firearm.

A resident of the community told OutAroad.com, “up to now mi still can’t believe seh him shoot di man, look how him career a move steady and him let the devil take hold of him.”

Moses found dead
According to the police Moses, body was found near the Hope River - the police are however suspecting that he might have committed suicide or was pushed off the bridge by someone.

Badman turned Christian
Before Moses decided to turn a Christian, he was known as a bad man by many in the Rema (Arnett Gardens) community whose father was killed by police in a shootout.

We just want our van back - we are a nonprofit and non-governmental organisation so this is really going to impact our ability to help persons who are literally dying of hunger due to coping with various disabilities autism, cerebral palsy, paralysis blindness, etc. The van takes us to where we need to go to get help for these people, who need our advocacy,” Maia Chung told OutAroad.com.

Since lost of the vehicle the organization has been struggling to function properly. This has put a damper on several projects that cannot be completed without proper transportation. One of which is the shooting of a music video for a song sung by High A Ziya titled Guide & Protect Disabled.

Chi Ching Ching actions are not justifiable says Manager

Late yesterday evening OutAroad.com received a letter from Chi Ching Ching’s management team Undisputed Entertainment requesting to use this medium to apologies on his behalf for his recent run-in with the law. Below is a copy of the press release.

Re: Radion Beckford (aka Chi Ching Ching)
Fr: Sabrina Downes of Undisputed Entertainment (Radion Beckford's Management)

This release is to address the points written in yesterday's news brief (January 20, 2009) - "Chi Ching Arrested On Drug/Motor Vehicle Charges".

Radion Beckford as documented Chi Ching was arrested on the charges set forth in the news brief and was duly punished accordingly. It is our intentions to address the article and make it aware that neither Undisputed Entertainment nor Radion Beckford condones such behaviour and his actions are not justifiable. Radion Beckford has been extremely busy over the last few months with his career, travelling extensively outside of Jamaica to the US, UK and Caribbean Islands, his schedule has been meticulously planned out and extremely hectic, which has led to him being unable to sort out personal issues, including obtaining a full drivers license. Radion Beckford is now in the process of following the correct procedure to obtain his license and to obtain full comprehensive cover...

Kindest regards

By Kon-Vick

ching_ching_chi_arrest.jpgRadian Beckford more popularly known as Chi Ching Ching and a friend were arrested for having ganja in their possession and for breaking several of the country’s road traffic laws.

The fast rising dancer-turn-deejay Chi Ching Ching seems to be mighty too anxious to get his hands around a motor vehicle steering wheel, which led, for him to pick up additional charges for breaching the Road Traffic Act - such as driving a car without a driver’s license and no insurance. He was also ticketed by the St. Ann police for driving over the speed limit.

OutAroad.com gets to understand that Chi Ching Ching has been driving for a while with his Learner’s License.

However when OutAroad.com got in touch with Chi Ching Ching he had this to say, “yeah man the police dem did pull mi over and tek mi up a station and charged mi, I was later released on station bail - I just want the people dem fi know seh mi deh a road even up to last night mi deh a Uptown Monday and couple other places a party.

You can read the letter below.

Re: Article in January 9, 2009 edition of the Star entitled, “ 'Dem a pressure me' - Ragashanti blasts Commission 'bias' ”

The Broadcasting Commission takes note of the article entitled, “'Dem a pressure me' - Ragashanti blasts Commission 'bias', published in the Star on January 9, 2009 and seeks to correct a number of inaccuracies contained therein.

Firstly, the Commission rejects, as entirely false, the allegation by Dr. Kingsley Stewart that he is being pressured.

It is under an obligation to bring such complaints to the attention of the station’s management and request a copy of the material complained about and any further information which could assist the Commission in investigating the matter.

Beenie Man beaten by members of the Alliance?

bounty_killer_beenie_man_beaten_camp_fire_jamaica_show_photos.jpg

What happened at Camp Fire is the question everyone is asking? Some people are saying that Mavado’s entourage and Kartel’s entourage had a flare up while others are saying that members of the Bounty Killer-led Alliance attacked Beenie Man and members of his entourage. However, there’s no way Mavado’s entourage and Vybz Kartel’s entourage could have been in any tussle as Vybz Kartel weren’t even billed for the show.

Just as we were about to contact, the Alliance camp an email was already sent to us from Julian Jones-Griffith who’s the spokes person/management for the Alliance. Below is a copy his statement explaining what took place at Camp Fire.

Several people have called members of the Alliance today with news that Beenie Man was on the radio saying words to the effect that he and his entourage were beaten up by the Alliance or people attending Camp Fire with the Alliance in Ewarton last night (December 31, 2008).

If indeed Beenie Man did that, we would just like to state categorically that it’s untrue and we are in the process of acquiring the recording from the radio station and will not hesitate to take legal action against Beenie if our lawyers deem any of his statements to be slanderous and/or libelous.

By Krazy Katty
OutAroad.com Writer

mavado_sting_photos.jpgAs the hours to sting are counting down, the tension between the rivaling camps of the Bounty Killer led alliance and the Vybz Kartel led Portmore Empire is becoming greater by the second. It is almost like a time bomb has been set that will explode the moment Vybz Kartel and Mavado take the stage at Jamworld.

Claims have surfaced on a popular entertainment website that Mavado was booed while performing at the recently held ‘Island Xplosion’.

According to Mavado's manager Julian Jones-Griffith, it is no secret that the website that carried this report has been aligned with Vybz Kartel since its inception. A letter written by Mavado’s manager Julian that was sent to the OutAroad.com offices a few hours ago (December 25, 2008) gave a conflicting report. It doesn’t make any reference to Kartel or anybody from the Portmore Empire being booed at the show but it seeks to clear the air as to what really took place. Below is a copy of the letter we received from Julian:

“A wah do one876entertainment? Dem caught up in this artist war ting and a try spread propaganda to help the artist they represent - Vybz Kartel. I just balancing things here because they have a report about Island Xplosion stating Mavado and the Alliance got booed. Kartel did his thing with Beenie so we aint gona tell any lies like Claude Mills and the rest of his media wh*res, but there is no doubt Mavado, Killer, Busy and the whole Alliance were very well received by the crowd. Alliance closed the show and not one person left before they had finished the set, giving them big forwards throughout their set. Kartel and his cronies left right after they performed which would account for the dreamt-up report one876 have on the site.
For once, I actually went into the crowd to watch the Alliance perform and I left the venue very satisfied by the crowd reaction. I called every Alliance artist after the show and simply laughed and said "dem nu bad like Alliance ee?"
I can't even bother go into details, suffice to say what one876entertainment wrote is complete bullsh*t. We'll see unoo over Sting”.

Met police defend decision not to ban Bounty Killer’s concert

bountykiller.jpgOutAroad.com understands that Bounty Killer concert in Stratford Rex on Sunday November 23rd went on despite strong protest by gay rights group OutRage.

deva_bratt_devra_devbra_photos_dancehall.jpgSince the news broke yesterday that dancehall artiste Deva Bratt was beaten and stabbed by four men, OutAroad.com tried to get in touch with Deva Bratt and his management team but was not successful in doing so. However, this morning Deva Bratt’s management team sent us an email explaining that it was just a misunderstanding - Deva Bratt is alive and well.

Deva Bratt's Management Team (PRGirlAngel):
"Yes, there was a minor incident that occurred Sunday morning, however Deva Bratt was *not* stabbed, and is *not* hurt. The incident has obviously been blown out of proportion.

Was Deva Bratt attacked because of controversial song he recently voiced?
Although rumored that the incident started due to controversial songs on a Cash Money Mixtape titled "UNEXPECTED", we cannot confirm that at this time. Deva Bratt is currently recording new music under the newly formed label/production company "Krucial Konflict".

Do you think rival artistes should disrespect ones mother in their songs?

OutAroad.com Presents The Public's Opinion Corner

vybzkartel-mavadothugsfight-dancehall.jpgWendell Stewart, 23 - Unemployed:
Yow mi love di two artistes dem but anyone who you ask this question will never say it’s right for a next man to disrespect a another man’s mother. Vybz Kartel is taking it too far, he’s acting as if he’s a child going to school and the quickest way to diss a man is by telling him fi guh suck him mother.

Samantha Hutchinson, 21 - College Student:
I watched the interview with Mavado on ER and you can tell that he’s hurt about the situation and I am only glad that he did not disrespect Kartel’s mother back in any of his songs. I used to love Kartel a lot but since he started saying that he don’t need to know God and how him f**ked Mavado’s mother pon di gaza that is out right disrespectful and ungodly. Another thing, I was surprised to hear Mavado mentioned that Vybz Kartel doesn’t have any morals, but Mavado is no different from Vybz Kartel because he was the one who sang about cutting Beenie Man’s son’s throat.

Raven Cordell, 27 - Store Clerk:
If my best friend tell me that a him a f**k my mother, I would never deal with him again maybe we would a even fight same place pon spot much less someone who is not my friend to tell me. Mi not going to support that and the selectors dem who played the song is also contributing to the disrespect.

'CHANGE WE NEEED' - Barack Obama – The president elect

“I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed".

Barack_obama_victory_president_america_john_mccain.jpg

By Sanya Harrison
OutAroad.com Writer

A new day has dawned in the history of all mankind as the four corners of the world responds with jubilation as democratic Barack Obama became the first African American to become president of the United States of America.

This historic moment came after a long and more importantly significant campaign season as it is the first time in history since independence that an African American will grace the seats of the oval office and take reign in the white house.

This is definitely a revolutionary moment:
Obama has triumphed despite the many obstacles that stood in his way. He is the reality of Martin Luther King’s dream; “I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: “we hold these truth to be self-evident: that all men are created equal”. Barack Obama has become a symbol to so many people who have waited a long time to reap the rewards of their struggles, from all the brave heroes of past generations who have so selfishly fought for the dream that he has made a reality. To all the people of the world of all races whom have suffered through many racial and social injustices. He is a beacon of hope for all mankind as he as proven that you can overcome any feet in life regardless of the color of your skin or how many hurdles you have to cross.

The newly elected president addressed the nation in Chicago where he gave another symbolic speech in which he declared that “if there is anyone who still doubt that dreams can still come through in America," can now have reassured hopes as he is a breathing testament of his own words.

Police & Soldiers shut down Jamaica’s party capital (New Kingston) about minutes after 2am early Sunday morning.

The police blocked every intersection - no one comes in and no one leaves the Hip-Strip without the police permission.

Party goers were searched one by one before they could exit the Quad and the Asylum Night Club that was hosting ZJ Elektra’s birthday bash titled ‘Club Elektra’.

However, after patrons waited patiently to get search by the cops - those who drove had to go through another searching process before exiting the car parks.

An OutAroad.com photographer was on the scene taking photos but was quickly apprehended by one of the cops who told him to delete all the photos he took of them searching patrons or things will get ugly.

Recent reports:
A Soldier gunned down five persons at the Double Diamond Night Club on Washington Boulevard. It’s alleged that the soldier started shooting patrons after he got into an altercation with some guys over a girl.

The solider is now receiving medical treatment and will be interrogated by the cops as soon as he’s fit enough.

Do you think Milk and Candice should have been fired for their unintentional nudity acts?

milk_siwell_candice_photos.jpgCVM Communications Group recently fired two of their best TV hosts Amelia 'Milk' Sewell and Candice Buchanan. The two were suspended for more than three months after a sex tape with Milk and nude photos of Candace were released in the public. Milk’s homemade porn video leaked to the public via a cell phone while Candice semi nude photos leaked on the internet by her obsessive ex-lover.

OutAroad.com takes it to the streets to get the public’s opinion on the matter.

Travis McFarlane, 25 - Tradesman:
Mi did know dem would have fired dem because from once they got such long suspensions yuh know that ago lead to dismissal. CVM could have shown little more sympathy on them by removing them from TV and give them something else fi do because job nuh easy fi get now-a-days especially with their history.

Cathleen Foster, 29 - Clerk:
It is sad to hear because they were two of my favourite TV personalities. In Milk’s situation, it was just a careless act that got in the hands of the wrong person. But I don’t think they should have even fired Candice because it was just some semi nude photos of her and we all know that they were dispatched by her ex-boyfriend. Life is so unfair when you have to suffer for things you had no control over.

Tricia Spencer, 24 - Supervisor:
I was bit upset when I saw Milk’s video and Candice photos because as women you have to be smart and think before you act. How can you make a video tape of yourself going down on a man with a device that can easily be lost? However, I do not believe that CVM should have fired them because they were not responsible for the release of photos and sex tape.

“I coulda neva turn a raper” are words quoted from one of Vybz Kartel latest singles on the Stimulant Rhythm. This new single has the incarcerated Deva Brat thinking if he’s still a member of the Portmore Empire. But, according to reports the Portmore Empire will not align itself with persons (artistes) involved in exploitation of women or carnal abuse offences.

OutAroad.com tried several times to get in touch with the big man (Vybz Kartel) but was unsuccessful. However, we later managed to squeezed a few information from a source who’s close to the Empire.

“It’s not a %100 true that Deva Brat is no longer a member of the Portmore Empire. The members are just saying that if he’s guilty then his membership will be terminated. I know the members are hoping for the best because it could have been one of them in Deva’s position,” the source explained to OutAroad.com

Deva Brat has been incarcerated since mid February. According to police reports on February 4, a 14-year-old girl, who is known to him, was walking by Smith’s house in Portmore, when he stopped her. The police added that he invited her into his house where he assaulted her. Deva Brat has vehemently denied these allegations.

rolex_beme_dancehall_party_thursday_photos_jamaica.jpgPopular Bembe selector Rolexx has heard that artiste Fanton Mojah is looking for him but the reason remains unclear.

Rolexx went to a studio in Kingston yesterday to voice dub plates with Movado when he was told by fellow selectors Foota Hype and Cutty from Copper Shot that Fanton Mojah and his entourage had been to the same studio the same day looking for Rolexx and making threats. When asked for the reason the persons present at the studio did not get an answer from the artiste but he instead continued with his threats to harm the selector when he would find him.

Rolexx is a seasoned selector and he says that he is definitely not afraid of Fanton Mojah or his entourage and he is not hard to find on the road. Rolexx says "I am a like stop light on green, on the go, so I am easy to find." Rolexx and Fanton Mojah have never had any form of confrontation before and there was always a good vibe between the selector and the artiste in the past. Rolexx would like to know the reason for the artiste's behaviour as he has not seen the artiste around in a long time. Rolexx continues to state that "artistes should not diss selectors cause we a build dem now." Rolexx says further that he will just continue to play music and nothing and nobody can stop him from doing his thing.

Powell defends Bolt after Lewis goes on attack

friAsafaPowell_narrowweb__300x526%2C0.jpgSTUTTGART, Germany (AFP) - Jamaica's Asafa Powell leapt to the defence of compatriot and sprint sensation Usain Bolt here on Saturday after ex-Olympic champion Carl Lewis questioned Bolt's performances in Beijing.

With Bolt resting back in Jamaica, Powell again dipped below ten seconds to win the 100m at the World Athletics Final on Saturday then said he was disappointed with comments made by Lewis in the United States.

After Bolt won three gold medals and set three world records in Beijing, Lewis said anyone who did not question the sudden improvements in the champions' performances was a 'fool'.

"Yes, I am disappointed with the words of a former athlete," said Powell, who finished fifth in the 100m Olympic final but was part of the Jamaican team that smashed the 4x100m relay world record.

"Usain (Bolt) did better than all the other athletes before him and yet he (Lewis) does not manage to believe in him.

"What Usain did does not shock me, because I know how much talent he has and this is the first year he has devoted his training to the 100m."

Powell was responding after Lewis, who won four gold medals at the 1984 Olympics, told Sports Illustrated: "When people ask me about Bolt I say he could be the greatest athlete of all time.

"But to run 10.03 seconds one year and 9.69 the next, if you don't question that in a sport with the reputation it has right now, you're a fool. Period."

Swedish Police Take Heat For Sean Paul Arrest

Sean_Paul_jamaica_reggae.jpgCaribWorldNews, NEW YORK, NY, Tues. Aug. 12, 2008: Did police in Sweden go overboard in the arrest of reggae superstar Sean Paul and hundreds of fans?

Some reggae promoters think so, including the man who organized the Uppsala Reggae Festival, where Paul, nine other performers, and up to 300 fans were arrested on Friday for marijuana possession.

'The way they treated Sean Paul and other artists was totally unacceptable,' Uppsala organizer Yared Tekeste told a Swedish publication. 'They searched his hotel room when he was not present and went through wallets and other personal belongings'.

Tekeste said he believed law enforcement officials targeted Paul to make an example of him. Out of the festival's three days they chose the day he was to perform to make the mass arrests.

'Both artists and staff feel humiliated,' said Tekeste. 'People were crying backstage. Some of the artists were so angry they planned a demonstration outside the police station. But I managed to prevent that.'

Caribbean nationals involved in the New York reggae scene agreed that Paul may have been set up to prove a point.

'He's the one that sang, 'Just gimme the light and pass the draw.' What did they expect?' asked television producer Shaun Walsh.

But concert promoter Sharon Gordon believes there's a double standard for reggae concerts, and Paul may have been a victim of it. She said venues charge her more than the usual fee because they want to hire extra security. 'There's always that stigma that I have to fight - the idea that reggae means ganja and lewd behavior,' said Gordon.

The Broadcasting Commission did not ban Konshens' 'Winner'

konshens-jamaica-banned_no.jpgLast week OutAroad.com ran a story with the headline Broadcasting Commission Bans Konshens From Becoming A Winner. But according to Mr. Cordel Green Executive Director of Broadcasting Commission - The Commission did not issue any such statement that Konshens’ 'Winner' should be removed from all disc jocks playlist.

The news of Konshens song being banned was also aired on several local radio stations.

Below is a statement from the Broadcasting Commission

The Broadcasting Commission has made no ruling on any song by the artiste Konshens. It is therefore entirely inaccurate to report that the Commission has banned his song. There is nothing on the Commission's website or in any press release or correspondence with any broadcaster about the artiste and his song.

Broadcasting Commission Bans Konshens From Becoming A Winner

By Kon-Vick
OutAroad.com Writer

konshens_winner_jamaica_concience.jpgKonshens will have to be extremely persistent if he intends to be a winner this year, this after the Broadcasting Commission placed a ban on his break out single Winner.

According to the Broadcasting Commission, the single is not fit for airplay and as such should be removed from the playlist of radio disc jocks.

When contacted by OutAroad.com Konshens was in a very subtle and reflective mood and was not about to dispute the decision arrived at by the Commission.

“There is no way I am going to dispute the Broadcasting Commission’s decision of believing that the song is not fit for airplay,” reasoned Konshens, adding, “The song is simply explaining the mindset of any individual who works vigorously but still cannot see the fruits of their labour.”

Despite citing that the single was aimed at uplifting individuals to strive for better and to try to excel in their endeavours, Konshens was adamant that there was no animosity between himself and the Commission.

“It is sad to know that a decision of this magnitude was arrived at, but I understand that the Broadcasting Commission is simply doing their jobs,” reasoned Konshens.

timberlee_female_artiste_caribbean.jpgIt was just weeks ago Timberlee’s label-mate Tifa was held up and robbed of her Motorola Flip W490 phone at gun point while leaving the parking lot of a party she attended in the Red Hills area. This time; the victim is Timberlee whose white 2000 Honda Civic car was stolen from the lawns of her home in Stony Hill.

When OutAroad.com heard of the incident, we immediately called Timberlee in concerned of her safety.

“The first thing I want to say is thank God because I could have gone outside to attend to the dogs barking, but he kept me inside. There is no way I would have believe that someone was outside trying to steal my car knowing that the King Alarm sign is on the gate. If my Aunt didn’t ask me where my car is, I would not have a clue that my 'Princes' (car) has been stolen.

She then went on to say that these crooks seems to be professional car thieves as there were no sign of forced entry or debris on the ground.
