Skeng channels his focus on his health after he recently hit the pause button due to exhaustion and dehydration.

One of dancehall’s fastest rising stars, Skeng, has been ordered to rest before returning to the stage. The information comes following his recently canceled performance at Dream Weekend. According to the organizers of the show, the “Protocol” deejay was deemed medically unfit to get on stage.

Skeng’s co-manager and music consultant, Cara Vickers, confirmed the information with The Star. She shared that the 21-year-old artist was extremely disappointed that he could not entertain his fans but also realized that his health was of paramount importance.

Vickers revealed that before the performance Skeng, whose real name is Kevon Douglas, admitted that he was not feeling well and that he was concerned about it. She added that he might have been feeling drained because of how many back-to-back performances he had in recent times. Thankfully, in the end, it turned out to be dehydration.

Vickers revealed that the “Life Changes” deejay is feeling much better and should be performing in a show in Grenada with Shaneil Muir next Saturday.

Skeng’s rise to the top has been fast, and he has been requested for performances worldwide since the beginning of 2022. Vickers went on to explain that he has been traveling since the start of the year, including places around the globe like the US, UK, and all over the Caribbean region.

She further explained that the busyness of his schedule and the fact that he was constantly waking up in different time zones had negatively impacted his sleep schedule.

That being said, she added that he is a hard worker and fully committed to seeing his dream of dominating in dancehall. With this goal in mind, he is fully aware that he must put in the long hard hours and make the sacrifices that many fans don’t see, Vickers shared.

“If Skeng starts something, he has to finish and he records up to four songs in one session [so] for every hit that goes out through public speakers, him dash down three or more songs in one session. I guess it has taken a toll,” she said.

On top of his desire to put out great music, he is also committed to his onstage performance. That means long and hard hours of back-to-back rehearsals for shows. Vickers shared that part of Skeng’s practice even includes exercising to have proper breathing techniques.

To this end, he is not taking his health for granted and has been focusing on eating on time but may have forgotten somewhere along the line to keep himself hydrated between studio time and performing live.

It seems that the young artist has quite a work ethic as well. Vickers revealed that even though he was ordered to rest by his doctor, he still wanted to record, which is made easier for him because he has access to two in-house studios.

Following his upcoming performance next weekend, he intends to take September and October to rest and record.

Vickers also revealed that Skeng is working on an EP and is now in talks with international female rapper Nicki Minaj about future collaborations. She also disclosed that there might also be a few European and British collaborations in the near future.

She added that the team is committed to helping him realize his dream, but he must rest when needed.

Lashana Lynch will play the iconic Marley matriarch, Rita Marley, in Bob’s upcoming movie.

The No Time To Die actress has been cast to play the role of Bob Marley’s Wife, Rita, in an upcoming Paramount Biopic on the life of Bob Marley. Paramount has been casting for the right characters since last year, and they have finally settled on Lynch, who also has Jamaican roots. Lynch, who was born in West London, Britain, to Jamaican parents, made history as the first female black 007 agent in the hit James Bond franchise based on books by author Ian Fleming who wrote all of the books from his Goldeneye winter home in Jamaica.

According to Deadline on Friday, Lynch will star as Rita Marley, in the yet untitled Bob Marley biopic alongside actor Kingsley Ben-Adir, who will play the legendary Reggae singer. Paramount has tapped Oscar-winning director Reinaldo Marcus Green helming, who is well-known for his recent King Richard biopic that focuses on the father of Venus and Serena Williams.

According to Deadline, the actress was selected from a large casting call examining actresses with a Jamaican background. There were also chemistry checks to see if the actress would be suitable to work with Ben-Adir. Deadline also said that the Marleys, including Rita and other family members, were part of the final decision to select Rita’s character.

Bob Marley and Rita Marley

The biopic will be produced by Rita, her son Ziggy Marley and daughter Cedella Marley on behalf of Tuff Gong Records, along with producer Robert Teitel and scriptwriters Green and Zach Baylin.

Bob Marley gained legendary status long before his death in 1981 when he was just 36. The singer died of cancer, but by that time, he had lived a full life, having already gotten married and had several children with his wife, and left a major impact on the world with his reggae music that spread to the corners of the globe. The genre has become very popular undoubtedly thanks to Marley’s music, although his friends and brother Dennis Brown and Peter Tosh also made their mark.

His songs “Get Up, Stand Up,” “One Love,” “No Woman, No Cry,” “Could You Be Loved,” “Buffalo Soldier,” “Jammin’,” and “Redemption Song” continue to sit on reggae music charts worldwide as the artist’s fame grows every year.

In the meantime, the biopic will focus on Bob’s and Rita’s love story and their marriage. Rita and Bob fell in love as the latter was just getting into music. A singer herself, she eventually became a member of Marley’s Bob Marley and the Wailers group as a backup singer.

Her own early story showed she was a member of The Soulettes, which Marley mentored before the two fell in love. They later got married as Marley was migrating to the U.S with his mother and his marriage led to the artist not being able to get his green card as he was not allowed to get married until after his status was regulated.

More details on the biopic are yet to be released.

Mase Squash Longstanding Beef With Cam’ron Says He Regrets Feud

Black Immigrant Daily News

The content originally appeared on: Urban Islandz

Mase is beefing with a lot of people, but fellow rapper Cam’ron is no longer one of them, as the rapper shared that he and the Harlem rapper have buried the hatchet.

In the heyday, while he was Killa Cam and Mase was a Bad Boy rapper, the two Harlem rappers carried on an intense beef that has spanned decades starting in 1999 and continued publicly up to 2017 when they traded diss at each other.

However, an Instagram video posted by Stason Betha shows Mase having a conversation with Cam’ron. “Killa what’s good,” Mase says as he smiles at the video and then laughs.

The two men have a friendly exchange that lasts for a few seconds on the video, something starkly different from the insults and disrespect they have both shown each other over the years.

Last week while on the Million Dollaz Worth of Game podcast, Mase revealed that he regretted beefing with the other Harlem rapper and explained what had caused the beef to start.

Mase said that he and Cam’ron problems started becase the Dipset rapper thought he had money that he didn’t truly have. He said that in the 90s he was flexing real hard during his time with Diddy’s Bad Boy imprint and his friends thought he had a lot of money that he wasn’t sharing with them.

“By the time I got the bag we was enemies already. So I didn’t get to break ’em off,” Mase said.

The rapper said that he was hurt over the beef. “That’s one of the relationships I regret,” he said about his past beef with Cam’ron. “I think I got two that I regret, and going at Killa, I wanted to do that but that was like my n***a, you know what I’m saying? So that really hurt me.”

It’s unclear when Mase squashed the beef as the two rappers also traded diss at each other in 2017 when the former released his album ‘Oracle’. At the time, Cam’ron had accused Mase of leaving rap to start a Ponzi scheme, while Mase had said he was going off to ministry to become a pastor.

As for Mase, he’s down one enemy but more to go as he has several active beefs with Diddy, who still owns his masters, and 50 Cent, who called him out for locking down Fivio Foreign in a ridiculous contract, and it seems that Fivio Foreign is also beefing with the Bad Boy rapper.

In his interview with Gillie and Wallo, he also touched on his beef with Diddy and why he’s still upset at the label boss. Mase said that he didn’t feel appreciate and adequately compensated and so he has deep resentment for Diddy. He also accused the rap mogul of holding him back.

NBA YoungBoy Drops ‘The Last Slimeto’, Celebrates 100 Platinum & Gold Certifications

Black Immigrant Daily News

The content originally appeared on: Urban Islandz

NBA YoungBoy drops his new album The Last Slimeto as he celebrates over 100 platinum and gold certifications at the young age of 22.

YoungBoy Never Broke Again is celebrating another milestone as he earned 100 top certified titles from the Recording Industry Association of America. The Baton Rouge rapper’s feat also comes at the young age of 22 years old despite the fact that he has been in rap music since he was 16 years old and enjoys immense success as the second most streamed hip-hop artist after Drake.

On Thursday, the RIAA announced that the new achievement covered gold and platinum titles, dozens of which are singles, and about half of a dozen are albums multiple times certified.

“Congratulations to #YoungBoyNeverBrokeAgain and his @AtlanticRecords & @neverbrokeagain teams on separate #RIAATopCertified titles,” the RIAA wrote on Twitter.

The rapper’s latest accomplishment notably covers his singles and albums, where he is the lead artist.

Ahead of his album, The Last Slimeto, dropping today August 5th, NBA YoungBoy is also racking up more streams with his existing music. According to Chart Data on Thursday, YB’s “Outside Today” was certified 4x Platinum in the United States.

It’s the latest in a string of upward movements in the Louisiana rapper’s career, which includes him falling in third place with 2.4 million among the best-selling artists by album units this year in the United States. Ahead of him is Taylor Swift at number two with 3.1 m and Drake at the top with 3.9 m.

NBA YoungBoy is ahead of artists like The Weeknd and Kanye West on the same list, but he does not appear on the global streamed artist list.

In the meantime, YoungBoy has more RIAA certifications than artists like Future and J.Cole, and his latest album is expected to tip his achievements towards an unbeaten record.

As for his latest album, it is the final in his current deal with Atlantic, which the rapper has been beefing with for months. Previously the rapper had told Akademiks that he rejected a $25 million deal with Atlantic to re-sign a new deal because he wanted $100 million.

The Last Slimeto cover

Earlier in the year, the rapper had shared that the label was unsupportive as he lashed out at them.

“Everything y’all post, Atlantic try to make it seem like I’m talking about them so they can try to sue me once the time’s up,” he had said in a voice note shared on Akademiks’ Instagram. “Man, tell them people suck my dick. Leave me alone, bitch. Ain’t nobody talking about y’all. I hate y’all bitches. I hate y’all more than y’all hate me. Leave me alone.”

However, things seemed to have taken a different turn weeks ago as the rapper shared this week that he signed a new deal with Atlantic for $60 million.

The eye-watering amount has led to rappers like Kodak Black calling for a re-negotiation of his deal with the label.

YoungBoy’s new album, The Last Slimeto, features guest appearances from Kehlani, Rod Wave, and Quavo. The project packs a whopping 30 songs and debut at No. 1 on iTunes.

Ne-Yo Had Outside Child Says Wife Crystal Smith Who Files For Divorce

Black Immigrant Daily News

The content originally appeared on: Urban Islandz

Crystal Smith is not here for the reconciliation as she filed for divorce from R&B singer Ne-Yo alleging that he cheated on her and fathered a child with another woman during their marriage. The couple renewed their vows this year after being separated for two years.

According to TMZ, the divorce petition was filed on August 1, a day after, Smith said that Ne-Yo was in the streets with many women, including prostitutes, and that he paid for unprotected sex during their 6-year marriage.

Crystal Smith says the couple got married on February 20, 2016, but they have been separated on or about July 22, 2022, and “since that date have continuously lived in a bona fide state of separation.”

The couple also shares three small children, Shaffer Smith Jr., Roman Smith, and baby Isabella Smith, who was born last year.

Smith says in her petition that she “is entitled to a divorce from [Ne-Yo] upon the ground that the marriage is irretrievably broken with no hope for reconciliation.”

She added that the singer has also committed the “act of adultery” and recently fathered a child with another woman. She did not reveal more details about the outside child. Crystal Smith wants temporary and permanent alimony from Ne-Yo. She says that at present, she has joint legal custody of the children with Ne-Yo, but she wants the court to grant her primary physical custody of the children along with child support for the three of them.

In her affidavit, Smith revealed that she has remained unemployed throughout the course of the marriage with Ne-Yo because they had agreed that she will be a housewife and raise the children. She added that the singer also earns a “significant self-employment income” as a singer, songwriter, and producer.

“[Crystal] requests that [Ne-Yo] be solely responsible for any and all debts and obligations independently acquired by [Ne-Yo] and that [Ne-Yo] hold [Crystal] harmless for any such debts or obligations,” the petition also reads.

Crystal Smith Instagram

In the meantime, Smith is asking the court for an “equitable division” of their marital home, a mansion in Los Angeles, and for him to cover her legal fees that round off to $25,000.

“Due to the disparity in income, [Crystal] moves the Court for an award of attorney fees on account in the amount of $25,000 as temporary attorney’s fees and expenses of litigation so that [Crystal] may pursue her claims for divorce with the opportunity to be effectively represented by counsel and properly protect her interests,” the filing read.

Ne-Yo has not filed an answer to the divorce petition. The singer was criticized on July 31 by Smith, who accused him of cheating and leading a double life.

“8 years of lies and deception. 8 years of unknowingly sharing my life and husband with numerous of women who sell their bodies to him unprotected,” she wrote on Instagram while labeling him a narcissist.

Ne-Yo had also responded later that day with a statement on Twitter asking for privacy.

“For the sake of our children, my family and I will work through our challenges behind closed doors. Personal matters are not meant to be addressed and dissected in public forums. I simply ask that you please respect me and my family’s privacy at this time,” he said.

The couple has been having problems for the past two years when they separated, but during that time, they had a baby and even renewed their vows this year, signaling that their marital problems were over. The divorce is, however, not a shock to many, given Smith’s claims last week and some blogs dishing “tea” on the artist that supports his estranged wife’s claims.

Boosie, 50 Cent & Meek Mill Reacts To Brittney Griner Prison Sentence In Russia

Black Immigrant Daily News

The content originally appeared on: Urban Islandz

Boosie Badazz, 50 Cent, Meek Mill and more reacts to Brittney Griner’s prison sentence in Russia for drug conviction.

Brittney Griner was sentenced to close to 10 years in prison after she was found guilty of drug possession and drug smuggling with criminal intent on Thursday in a Russian court. The WNBA star was also fined 1 million rubles or $16,300 U.S. dollars along with the sentence in what has been a high-profile pull and tug by the Russian and American governments.

According to Russian prosecutors, Griner had less than a gram of cannabis oil and a vape pen in her luggage when she was arrested by Russian police in February, ABC News reported.

The Biden Administration has called on the Russian government to release Griner, and it has also negotiated a swap of prisoners by offering to release a Russian man accused of plotting to kill Americans and selling arms to Colombia. However, these have not been heeded.

On Thursday, after the sentencing, many Hip Hop community members reacted to Griner’s sentence, which they called harsh.

Among those reacting were several celebrities, including Boosie Badazz and 50 Cent. In an Instagram video, Boosie says that the government did not do enough to get Griner home because she is a black woman.

“How the hell that girl get nine years for a weed pen? And the USA ain’t doing nothing about it, you tell me that. If that was Taylor Swift it would be a peace treaty right now. They would be drafting to go to war, for a weed pen, nine years,” the Louisiana rapper said.

The rapper also called out Vice President Kamala Harris for not speaking up.

“What that shows for black women in the United States, and the Vice President, for a black woman, you supposed to be on the frontline, you supposed to be on the frontline to get that woman out of jail.”

50 Cent also reacted as he said the basketball athlete is caught in geopolitics between the two countries.

“This is wild, smh you don’t ever want to get caught up in the politics,” 50 Cent wrote on Instagram. “They are gonna tell her like 10 years for a vape pin watch.”

Radio Host Angie Martinez also reacted to the sentence as she called on the U.S government to intervene to help Griner.

“BRING HER HOME,” Martinez wrote on Instagram. “9 years for oil in a vape pen?! this poor woman is a political pawn and it’s disgusting and f**kin infuriating!”

Meek Mill also tweeted a message, “Free BG … let’s fight for her!!!!!!!”

In the meantime, Chuck D also warned against breaking the rules in foreign countries like Russia, which has anti-American sentiment.

“I’ve taken hundreds of artists personnel across the earth …number 1 message dont Fcuk with these govts on any sht,” he said. “BG has been used & abused dangled by D-evils. Here NRA & image gangsters must know that the killing machines of War ain’t a movie. While all can only sit watch pray,” he added.

Brittney’s wife, Cherelle Griner, has not reacted to her sentence as yet. Last month, she revealed that she had spoken to President Biden about helping to get Griner safely back to America.

Cardi B Denies Involvement In Nicki Minaj ‘Fake Assistant’ Drama

Black Immigrant Daily News

The content originally appeared on: Urban Islandz

Cardi B is denying that she had anything to do with the recent drama surrounding Nicki Minaj after a troll account reportedly claimed to be her ex-assistant and was dishing dirt on the rapper.

The account popped up days ago on Instagram under the name of a label executive and using the photo of a Business Insider journalist while sharing several allegations about Minaj and her husband and also sharing information about the rapper’s life.

Nicki Minaj, who had addressed the troll account, claimed that it was an attempt by another fan base to execute their plan to take her down. While she did not call names, it is widely known that she and Bronx rapper Cardi B do not particularly enjoy a relationship due to their past rivalry. Fans have also continued the drama as they find ways to compare and pit the rappers against each other and this latest incident with Nicki say the Barbz throwing shots at Bardi gang fans.

Cardi B denied that she had anything to do with it as she defended herself, noting that she was asked by bloggers for input on the “tea.” She said all of it is false as the troll account also made allegations that Minaj was recorded speaking ill of Cardi’s children.

In a rare moment, Cardi says she did not believe the account and called the claims lies.

“A lot of things I’m seeing is ppl be saying oh you be discussing this, this and that with Arman. No,” Cardi B began.

“A lot of blogs hit me up asking me about that bs that was going on two days ago and I told everybody, no, that is not true, there was lies talking bout ‘oh Mike Will Made it told you this and that and said this about your kid’, no. That is not true, that is not true. ‘Have you reached out this and that’- no. it’s not true, I think it’s false, I think it’s a troll. And that what I told Arman and what I told everybody else,” Cardi B said.

The rapper added that she responded to questions from blogs because she is tired of having false assumptions made about her.

“I’m not discussing everybody, I’m telling ppl no this sh*t is a lie, because guess what if I don’t respond to people they are gonna assume that it’s real and then they are gonna run with it. I don’t lie on people and I’m not gonna let the narrative go that is true. What’s wrong with me saying it’s a lie it’s not true,” she asked.

Cardi also called out those who only wanted to see strife had she entertained the claims by the troll account and lashed out at Minaj.

“Y’all would have loved it if I entertained it… ‘yes it’s true’… but that’s not true, I told people it’s false, that’s a troll, that’s a troll account and that’s how I left it, nice clean and there. And Arman wasn’t the only one that reached out. A lot of blogs DM me and a lot of blogs hit my publicist and we denied all of it and we said it was a lie. thank you, carry on,” the rapper ended.

Nicki Minaj, in the meantime, has been promoting her music, while Cardi B recently dropped her track “Hot Sh*t” with Kanye West and is reportedly working on her album to be released this year.

Gucci Mane Admits Dissing Dead Rappers Is A Bad Trend He Started

Black Immigrant Daily News

The content originally appeared on: Urban Islandz

Gucci Mane says he started the ‘dissing dead rappers’ trend and now wants it to stop.

Fans are not here for Gucci Mane’s latest song, “Dissin the dead,” where he calls on rappers to stop mentioning those who have passed away. Dissin’ the dead has become a sensitive issue in hip hop as it has not only led to many families hurting but to reprisals as well.

While Gucci Mane himself has been guilty of the crime of Dissin’ dead rappers, particularly the late Pookie Loc, the rapper appears to show maturity as he raps that other persons should also stop disrespecting those who have passed on.

The music video for “Dissin the Dead” was produced by ATL Jacob, TM88, TooDope, and Akachi, and in it Gucci Man fesses up.

“I know I should be more careful with the sh**t that I said,” Gucci raps. “I feel like I started a trend, they never gon’ stop/They gon’ keep dissin’ the dead.”

Meanwhile, fans roasted Gucci Mane for being a hypocrite as he has been unapologetic about rapping about Pookie Loc, an artist signed to Jeezy whom he had shot and killed 16 years ago. Gucci Mane claimed that he killed the artist in self-defense.

He even recently referenced Pookie Loc in his collaboration with Lil Durk on “Rumors.”

“D.A. dropped my murder, didn’t have evidence to prove it/I think my house is haunted, yeah, by who? The ghost of Pookie,” he had said in the track.

“Gucci Mane is STILL making songs about Pookie Loc but he won’t ever tell what he did to Jeezy to make him send those people after him…FYI: Nobody sends THAT kind of heat your way just because they don’t like you… Let it GOOOO before you open up another can of worms!!” one fan wrote on Twitter in response.

“Gucci mane using his veteran rap status to end the trend of rappers dissing the dead in their lyrics. Lmao didn’t he diss the late POOKIE LOC last year? Talmbout “put his ass in the dirt!!” another person wrote.

“How Gucci Mane calling for rappers to stop dissing the dead when jus a few months ago he was on Verzuz talkin about “we smokin on POOKIE Loc tonight,” another added.

Fivio Foreign Previews Remake Of Mase ‘What You Want’ As Feud Escalates

Black Immigrant Daily News

The content originally appeared on: Urban Islandz

Fivio Foreign threatens to release a remake of Mase’s classic “What You Want” as their feud escalates beyond a bad record deal.

After putting out the disgraceful contract he received from Mase, the Brooklyn drill rapper is back again to troll the former Bad Boy artist with a sample of his own song. On Thursday night Fivio Foreign shared a snippet of a new record which sounds like a sample of one of Mase’s biggest records.

The video shared by Fivio showed him in the studio while a voluptuous woman was licking his forehead while the song played in the background. Many fans reacted on social media as Fivio tagged Mase on his Instagram account with the song sample of his “What You Want” track featuring Total from his debut album Harlem World.

The album was and is still one of the biggest projects released by Diddy’s Bad Boy Label and features some much-loved songs like “Feels So Good,” “24 Hours To Live,” and “Will They Die 4 U?”

“What you want from me ?,” the “Big Drip” rapper wrote on the post.

It seems that Fivio is getting petty after Mase lied about how he helped Fivio and the exact sum of money that was given to him.

Fivio Foreign had revealed this week that the former Bad Boy rapper had him locked into an unconscionable contract that paid him an advance of $5,000. While it sounded like Fivio was joking, the rapper eventually shared the contract, which showed that Mase would also be getting a significant portion of his royalties and other income from his music.

Fivio hit out at Mase after the former Bad Boy rapper did an interview on Million Dollaz Work of Game podcast where he alleged that he gave Ma$e $5,000 initially through his RichFish Records label, and then he gave him $750,000.

When questioned about the money, Mase, however, said that he helped Fivio to negotiate a deal with a bigger label, but out of the money, he took $800,000 of the money and gave him $$750,000.

While Fivio Foreign has been cool about the entire thing with Mase this is the first time he is seriously speaking about the deal with Ma$e. The rapper had said in a previous interview that the man who helped him get the deal even ran off with the money.

In the meantime, Fivio seems to have more to say about the deal and Ma$e as he shared a tweet hinting that he might be seeing N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN on Drink Champs.

“I mite have to do Drink Champs,” Fivio tweeted alongside a thinking emoji.

Despite the controversy, Fivio Foreign has not taken any steps to end the contract with Mase, having said in the past that he is in control of his money and doesn’t bother with the contract with the veteran rapper.

The rapper’s contract is not unlike others that exist in the industry, particularly in hip hop for cases like Megan Thee Stallion and even Mase, who has alleged that his own label boss Diddy gave him a raw deal by signing him for little and nothing and keeping his masters while refusing to sell them or hand them over.

Many hip-hop fans have criticized Mase for, in essence, doing what Diddy did to him. Mase has not helped the situation as he referred to himself as “Diddy 2.0” as he took shots at Diddy.
