Wow… That Wu-Tang gravel pit feel with two sick lyricists… My only complaint?!?! This was the ultimate 4 minute song! Go round it nuh!!!

Is Ricky Trooper serious?!?! I mean officially the US Government will deny that his drunken tirade waving a glock at an idiot cameraman (I say idiot cause there you stand videotaping a drunk man and staring down the barrel of his piece -I COULD SEE THE FRIGGIN’ RIFLING SPIRALS!!!)…

Sorry (I apologise for MY tirade!), his tirade was probably the cause for the various visas that were revoked in recent time BUT singing this as an ‘ansa bak?’ -LUUUUUU!!!

Turns out that I’ve been made to believe something that isn’t real. According to Jozen Cummings of the website globalgrind.com like me is a Magnum condom wearer but he and I were fooled… He writes:

For the sake of conversation, I’m just going to come right out and say it.

I wear Magnum condoms. Have been for years. It’s a secret I’m both proud to share and shy to reveal. One time, my mom was visiting me at my apartment, and while she was helping me clean up, she found a Magnum wrapper. To this day, I don’t know if I was embarrassed by the fact that she found an empty wrapper or that the wrapper itself was of the shiny gold variety.

Like most men of color, I wear the Magnum not just as a precautionary matter, but also as a badge of honor. But after reading an article in today’s New York Times on a new advertising campaign Trojan (the company that distributes Magnums) is launching with Ludacris and Magnums, I’m beginning to feel a little differently; that maybe my Magnum purchases are not a big deal?

To wit here’s a quote from the story by Jim Daniels, vice president of marketing at Trojan:

“The Magnum brand is viewed as a positive lifestyle badge and positive symbol,” Mr. Daniels said. “And people are proud to show they have a Magnum condom — the large size really connotes a sense of ‘above-average prowess,’ let’s call it.”

But as the story’s writer, Andrew Adam Newman points out later, the Magnum is only connoting a myth.

For all the connotations, however, it turns out that Magnum is not so large. It is the same length as standard condoms, with the same circumference at its base, Mr. Daniels said. “Some people feel more comfortable with that width, but you don’t have to be an overly endowed man to use a Magnum and enjoy it,” he added.

My jaw dropped the minute I read this.

Cops theorise recent popularity the cause

Rasbert Turner, Star Writer

The St Catherine North police believe that thieves are targeting stores that sell the popular Clarks shoes, after two stores in the Linstead were recently robbed of several pairs of the footwear.

Two men, who were found with a number of the shoes in their possession, have since been taken into custody by the Linstead police.

Reports reaching THE STAR are that about 8 a.m. yesterday, police searched two houses in August Town and Prospect in Bog Walk, and seized a number of the shoes that are believed to have been stolen.

Last week, thieves broke into a store located on King Street and another on Gillette Street. The police told THE STAR that more than $2 million worth of Clarks shoes have been stolen from the two stores in Linstead.

Several Jamaican dancehall artists have had their U.S. visas canceled in recent weeks, leading to concerns among the reggae community that it is suffering because of a dispute between the two countries.

There has been unprecedented en masse cancelation of U.S. visas belonging to five popular Jamaican dancehall entertainers. The Fraud Prevention division of the United States Embassy in Kingston, Jamaica, initiated procedures to retract visas belonging to Beenie Man (Moses Anthony Davis), Bounty Killer (Rodney Basil Price), Mavado (David Constantine Brooks), Aidonia (Sheldon Ricardo Aitana Lawrence) and sound system selector Ricky Trooper (Garfield Augustus McKoy).

The embassy issued a directive to all airlines operating flights to the U.S. from Jamaica stating that the aforementioned artists were barred from boarding any U.S. bound aircraft.
