Lil Kim Calls Out Diddy At Baltimore Concert

It looks like rapper Lil Kim has found yet another person to call out, this time it’s Bad Boy’s Diddy.

At a recent concert in Baltimore, Lil Kim performed “It’s All About The Benjamins” and during her performance she gave a special shout out to Diddy.

“Ay, Puffy should be ashamed of his fuckin’ self,” Lil Kim shared with the audience.

For the past week or so Lil Kim has expressed her growing distaste for fellow female rapper Nicki Minaj.

It’s clear that Lil Kim isn’t a fan of Diddy’s decision to become Nicki Minaj’s manager. Although Diddy has yet to officially become Nicki’s manager, he’s given the female MC plenty of praise.

Following the song, Lil Kim brought out Baltimore rapper Keys The Problem who performed her Nicki Minaj diss.

Gyptian in bike crash – Singer sustains cuts, bruises

Recording artiste Gyptian, born Windel Edwards, was involved in a motorbike accident along Molynes Road in St Andrew yesterday, in which he sustained minor head and shoulder injuries.

The accident occurred in the vicinity of the Olympia Crown hotel at around 6 p.m.

When THE STAR arrived at the Andrews Memorial Hospital where Gyptian was being treated in the Accident and Emergency Department, he was in high spirits as he related the unfortunate ordeal.

“Mi an Nitty Kutchie did a ride out from Flava Squad studio, ’cause mi did waa ketch a vibes an when mi reach Molynes Road a man just walk out inna di road,” the reggae artiste said. “As mi swing di bike outta him way, him run inna di same direction, an wi just collide … Mi couldn’t avoid it.”

The pedestrian who was involved in the accident has not yet been identified, but is said to have also suffered minor bruises and is being treated at the Medical Associates Hospital in Half-Way Tree.

“Mi nuh know who him is, mi neva see him before,” Gyptian said.

Nitty Kutchie did not suffer any injury as he was on a separate motorbike.

According to Ivor Ruddock, Gyptian’s manager,who was present at the hospital, an MRI scan was done and the doctors have confirmed that there are no abnormalities with the Hold Yuh star’s brain, “So they are going to release him,” he said, “but the results for the X-ray for his left arm will not be available until tomorrow (today).”

Ruddock further stated that they have not yet made an official police report, but the father of the man involved, who is believed to be the owner of the Olympia Crown hotel, has already made an official report to the Half-Way Tree Police Station.

The motorbike is said to be badly damaged.

Gyptian, who is looking forward to the release of his album, entitled Hold Yuh, set for next month (July 20), wants to let his fans know that he is okay, saying: “Mi deh yah same way!”

Among the well-wishers at Gyptian’s bedside were friends, family members, and Christy Barber, vice-president of VP Records.

Konshens Biography

Born Garfield Delano Spence – Konshens never actually planned a career in music, apart from enjoying the vibe it gave him growing up. He was just like the average Jamaican youngster, “at that time it was just ball game, school and girls, I never saw music as a profession” he vividly recalls (laughs).

A resident of Sherlock a garrison community located in the Duhaney Park area of Kingston, Konshens began showing a commitment in music pretty late, 2005 to be specific. Back then the now DJ was just another curious stranger who use to hang out with his older brother Delus (Sojah) at Sugar Minott’s Black Roots Recording Studio, but their vision for music changed when they linked up with the musical family Cash Flow. “That’s where I got my break I recorded my first song there on the Guilty Riddim and it did well, it went number 1 in Japan and how we found out was we just search for the song on the internet and read up some info and there it was number 1 in Japan so we did a one month tour over there. The following year 2006 we (Sojah & I)released an album (Sons of Jah) and get another Japan tour, this time for 2 weeks”.

Realizing he was on to something good Konshens began making steps in the right direction. Not a producer of beats himself he hooked up with the father and son team of Cash Flow to compose tracks as he penned lyrics to launch his own solo career, a move he says was all apart of the grand plan. “When we came back from tour we sat down and said that we wanted to attack it from a local stand point so me and Delus (Sojah) say we were gonna try solo careers and see what happened.
I worked at the National Public Health Lab and was pulling down a 20 pack ($ 20,000) but then its like I made a business decision because I was cutting dub plates for the same 20 pack in two minutes doing something I just love doing so I thought why not do some more tracks and make money at the same time”.
Surprising a lot of his friends and former school mates Konshens said his decision to pursue music shocked many persons. “a lot of people really couldn’t believe I was doing music at the time because I didn’t really show any signs earlier out, it wasn’t until later on that I became addicted and even started ghostwriting for people, I just wanted to create something new everyday”.

As with most success stories there was always someone that believed from day one in the artist and Konshens found that loyalty and support from a long time friend who played the role of his A&R at the time, shopping his work to well known producers while keeping him focused on the bigger picture. “Me and Carlington Wilmot (Photographer / Website Manager) use to hit the road and one day him tell me sey him have a link a Natural Bridge Records. We went there and I spoke to Tamra Recas and she gave me a riddim and I voiced a song and they liked it. From there I was introduced to Mark Pinnock the C.E.O and we spoke back and forth for a while until we came to an agreement that was like the turning point for me”…
