Popcaan is ensuring that Toni-Ann Singh has the best birthday ever as the couple spends some quality time together with friends and family in London, United Kingdom, where she has accompanied him for his Great Is He album launch.

On Wednesday night, Popcaan and Toni-Ann Singh’s chemistry was palpable as both individuals were on Instagram Live, where fans got to see their quirky and fun side. While on Toni-Ann’s Instagram Live, Popcaan revealed that he was blocked by Instagram from going live on his own Instagram account, so he “borrowed” Toni-Ann’s account to go live so he could wish her ‘Happy Birthday.’

“Dem nuh want me go live, them say me unruly,” he says while a playful Toni-Ann responds, “You gi too much trouble.”

Toni-Ann Singh also snuggles her face on the artist’s shoulders, and a very romantic Popcaan takes a piece of chocolate from her dessert and feeds it to Singh. The couple was out to dinner in London and were surrounded by a large group of friends and family.

“It’s love it’s life, it’s a breeze, you know what I am saying,” Popcaan said.

Toni-Ann Singh also shared gratitude for another year of life. “On my birthday I am happy to be surrounded by so much love, and support and hope and support and light and family and I just give God all the praise for so much to be grateful for,” she says.

She added, “I’m not a big birthday person if you know me so you have to know that like this is a good year. It’s the best. That is it,” she added.

Popcaan and Singh also break out into random singing as he tells her she wants him to climb up on his “Aboboyaa” (his song with Burna Boy) before he breaks out into a cuss word-laden sentence.

“Woah woah woah,” Toni-Ann says as he apologizes and says sorry, noting that he doesn’t want Toni-Ann to be blocked like him for cursing on Instagram.

Meanwhile, Toni-Ann also shared a beautiful message on Instagram dedicated to Popcaan.

“Andrae the GREAT. I didn’t plan to be sappy, but my heart is TOO full of joy To be loved and supported by this LEGEND gives me so much strength. I am beyond grateful to you for using your blessings to bless so many others (me). I don’t take this honor lightly. May God continue to bless you ABUNDANTLY @popcaanmusic. “Thank You” is an understatement. Mi Love Yuh @popcaanmusic,” Toni-Ann wrote.

Popcaan also responded, perhaps letting the cat out of the bag as he confirmed that Toni-Ann Singh would be recording solo music soon.

“Appreciate you Toss and you’re only getting greater, I am more than ready for your new music,” Popcaan said.

Meanwhile, Toni-Ann received love from many of her followers, including the likes of Bounty Killer, who wrote, “Adorable couple greatness.”

Future is paying homage to Bob Marley as he shared on Tuesday that he tattooed an image of the late great reggae artist on his foot. Future has long declared himself a fan of Reggae music and named Bob Marley as his favorite artist in all genres.

In a video shared on Instagram, the Atlanta rapper shared the process of getting the tattoo, noting that his tattoo artist, Steve, was going to add the image of Marley on his leg.

Bob Marley died on May 11, 1981, at the age of 36. The king of reggae is loved and respected by generations of people who recognized the impact of his music on the world during times of hatred and oppression against black people across the world. Future’s video showed the tattoo artist preparing to draw the image of Marley printing the close-up image of Marley’s face with his dreadlocks prominently spread out.

The rapper appeared calm as the tattoo artist placed the drawing on his left leg. It appears that Future also has tattoos of other historical figures on his leg, with a large image of Martin Luther King covering his calf below the Bob Marley Tattoo.

Bob Marley is well known for songs like “No Woman No Cry,” “Three Little Birds,” and “Could You Be Loved,” among others. Marley’s birthday is on February 6, which is widely celebrated by his family and Jamaicans during Reggae Month.

For Future, the tattoo might have a different significance as February is celebrated as Black History Month. Fans of Bob Marley reacted to the rapper paying homage to Marley.

“A real legend in music and spirituality, Jah Bless,” one fan wrote. “The Greatest To Ever Grace The Mic,” another said.

“Sun is Shining The weather is sweet,” another added.

Future, in 2017, shared that he loved Reggae music and that Marley is his all-time favorite artist.

“Bob Marley is my favorite artist of all time and I am a major reggae fan. His music has inspired me in so many ways and I am truly grateful to have been able to experience it. Thank you, Bob Marley, for everything,” the rapper had said in a US Magazine interview.

Future is widely regarded as one of the the most influential rapper of his generation and is credited for pioneering widespread drug use in hip hop. While the Atlanta rapper is undeniably great, Bob Marley is on a whole other level influentially. The Jamaican singer’s timeless music has captivate fans worldwide for close to half a century.

Shenseea fired off a message to her team putting everyone on notice that she means business this year.

Shenseea had a lot on her chest on Sunday as she released several posts on social media aimed at unidentified members of her team whom she called out for not doing their job and for messing up the release of the physical copies of her debut album.

On Sunday, Shenseea answered several questions from fans, but one particular question and answer saw the dancehall artist who is crossing over into mainstream Hip-Hop music, revealing that her album release did not go according to plan as her team failed to execute some of her requests.

The artist was asked by a fan on Twitter using the hashtag #AskShenseea where are her physical copies of the album and she told him that her “team” failed to release CD/Vinyl copies as she had wanted.

Shenseea did not name anyone in her responses, and the tweet has since been deleted, but that’s not the only time that she appeared to take a swipe at her team, which includes Interscope Records and Rvssian‘s Rich Immigrants to which she is signed and her managers Romeich Major and Wassim ‘Sal’ Slaiby’s Salxco along with A&R Donny “Dizzy Clean Face” Flores.

In another tweet, she also shared that a music video for her song “Deserve It” could not be released because “Directors f**ed it up so I decided not to put it out. It was so bad,” she responded to a fan asking about the music video.

In another post on Instagram, the singer shared a cryptic post that left many fans questioning if it was directed at people on her team.

“I’m not friends with nobody this year. Do your f***ing job or get replaced,” she wrote in a now-deleted Instagram Story.

Shenseea has not outrightly addressed any specific issues with her team. She did update fans on her Q&A about her present work.

When asked about new music, the artist revealed that she is “gearing up to get a music video done,” for an upcoming release.

She also updated a fan on her mental and physical health, writing, “mentally, I’m better than last year. Physically I need to do better lmao.”

‘Alpha’ debuted at No. 1 on the iTunes Reggae chart despite her best effort at making it a hip-hop project. The album sold 845 pure sales and less than 5,000 copies in its first week and an overall 63,000 copies at the end of 2022.

Shenseea had previously spoken about her disappointment in her album rollout, which she disclosed to fans was not what she had wanted and that she wasn’t included in the process.

“My next piece of work is going to be everything that I want,” she said. “Like, the first album, my vision wasn’t really executed properly, and that was a turnoff for me. Like, yo, I know what the f*** I want. And when I don’t get what I want, it turns me the f*** off.”
