SPICE FT. VYBZ KARTEL - CONJUGAL VISIT (STEAMING HOT NEW VIDEO)

The SPICEY ONE has done it again! After racking up over 9 million Youtube/Vevo views on her single "So Mi Like It", Spice is back with a steamy, sultry, super sexy video; "Conjugal Visit" ft Vybz Kartel (well, a close enough look alike).

Who would have thought the 2008 crossover hit, "Romping Shop" could be matched?! Well sit back and enjoy the ride, Spice and Vybz Kartel have scored another noteworthy collaboration. 

In an exclusive interview with PRGirlAngel, Spice stated " The song was recorded in 2009 and it was supposed to be a follow up to Romping Shop, but we never really get a chance to put it out. So, the name of the song, "Conjugal Visit", we decided to call it that this year because of him (Vybz Kartel) being in prison, so that's what inspired the whole concept of the video".

And what a video it is! The video was launched November 5 in New Kingston, Jamaica at "Triple Century". The event was a success, with a star studded turn out.

Meanwhile, Spice is busy touring, from Europe to USA, to the beautiful Caribbean Islands, and most currently French Guiana.

Congrats on all your success Spice, keep up the good work and continue to keep dancehall alive!

VYBZ KARTEL SENTENCED TO LIFE IN PRISON!


KINGSTON, Jamaica:
Dancehall artiste, Vybz Kartel, has been sentenced to life in prison for the murder of Clive ‘Lizard’ Williams.


Kartel, whose real name is Adijah Palmer, is to serve 35 years before he becomes eligible for parole.

He and the three other men convicted for Lizard’s murder were each given life sentences a short while ago by Justice Lennox Campbell.

Adidja Palmer – LIFE IN PRISON (35 years before eligible for parole)
Shawn ‘Shawn Storm’ Campbell – LIFE IN PRISON (25 years before eligible for parole)
Kahira Jones – LIFE IN PRISON (25 years before eligible for parole)
Andre St John – LIFE IN PRISON (30 years before eligible for parole)

Justice Campbell handed down the sentences after hearing impassioned pleas for leniency from lawyers representing the men.

On March 13, after 65 days of trial, a jury returned a ten to one guilty verdict.

On that same day, a fourth co-accused, Shane Williams was freed by the jury.

The defense has indicated that it will be appealing the verdict.

It has cited discrepancies, inconsistencies, missing data, and mismanagement in the collection of evidence as well as the integrity of the evidence.

Kartel’s attorney, Tom Tavares-Finson says the defense has a fundamental issue with the decision of the trial judge to permit certain phone evidence, given the admission by the police that the instruments were being used after they were taken into their custody.

He says it is very significant that since the matter was heard, the Director of Public Prosecutions has ordered a change in the protocol as to how evidence is to be kept in the department.

According to the attorney, the police have also changed the protocol as to how telephones are to be kept.

Tavares-Finson said the Director of Public Prosecutions, Paula Llewellyn, has also asked prosecutor, Jeremy Taylor, to launch an investigation into the conduct of the investigators in the case.

"I am of the opinion that the department cannot investigate itself and any such investigation should be done by the Independent Commission of Investigations,” Tavares-Finson said.

Months before Kartels arrest, he expressed concern in an interview with Cliff Hughes. He knew that his life and freedom were at risk, and he pointed the finger, at promoter and former law enforcement officer Laing. Take a listen.

Shane Williams – Not GUILTY
Andre St John – GUILTY
Kartel, 38, whose real name is Adidja Palmer and his co-accused went on trial on November 20 in the Home Circuit Court.

They had been in custody since September 2011.

The Crown represented by senior deputy director of public prosecutions, Jeremy Taylor, and Crown Counsel Leighton Morris alleged that on August 16, 2011 ‘Lizard’ was beaten to death at Kartel's house at 7 Swallowfield Avenue, Havendale, St Andrew over two missing guns.

DANCEHALL PRODUCER "ROACH" ALLEGEDLY KILLED THIS MORNING


It is being rumored and reported that producer, manager, and road manager, Patrick Samuels aka Roach, was shot and killed this morning in St. Andrew, Jamaica. Details are very sketchy at this time, but I received over 10 tips about this story this morning. Allegedly, Roach was shot in a gas station by unknown assailants, numerous times, and even as the car drove off, shots were continued to be fired. Roach was formerly Vybz Kartel's road manager, and also managed dancehall artist Navino for some time. Musically, he is most popular for speaking his mind, and his very controversial interviews. Roach was not a stranger to controversy, but he was loved, and equally talented. He is most popularly known for production contributions on Mavado's hit song "Settle Down" on the Overtime Riddim in 2011. R.I.P Roach.

TOMMY LEE aka UNCLE DEMON ANNOUNCES NEW ALBUM


Tommy Lee announced on his FB page this morning, that you can now pre-order his new album, debuting under label name of "Guzu Musiq". Coming off of the recent controversial statements by Vybz Kartel (see article in the archives) stating Tommy Lee was a "moron", and "anti-gaza" could this be his way of confirming he is in fact no longer affiliated with GAZA, and is now GUZU??? Hmmmm #UncleDemonVoice
