Vybz Kartel drops new project days after release from prison

Just 24 hours after being released from prison, Jamaican dancehall artist Vybz Kartel wasted no time in getting back to his musical endeavours.

He recently announced the release of a new 12-track project titled “First Week Out” on the platform X. The album, distributed by Hapilos, showcases Kartel’s solo artistry with just one collaboration featuring Squash.

Some of the tracks on the album include “Feel Great” (Intro), “The Menace”, “Terror by Night”, “Unstoppable”, “Skilful”, “Adiadking”, “Giant”, “Victorious”, “Beat Dem Bad”, “Win”, “Success Story”, and “Number One”.

Vybz Kartel, whose real name is Adidja Palmer, had been incarcerated at the Tower Street Adult Correctional Facility prior to his release. His freedom was granted after the Court of Appeal overturned his murder conviction stemming from the September 2011 murder of Clive “Lizard” Williams.

 

Following his release, fans in the Corporate Area expressed widespread jubilation at the news. Kartel and his co-accused, Shawn “Shawn Storm” Campbell, Kahira Jones, and Andre St John, were initially convicted of the crime, but their appeal was dismissed by the Jamaican Court of Appeal in 2020. Subsequently, they sought recourse from the Privy Council in the United Kingdom, which eventually overturned their murder convictions on March 14 due to juror misconduct, thus sending the case back to Jamaica’s Court of Appeal.

Jennifer Lopez, Ben Affleck ‘to file for divorce’

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are reportedly on the brink of divorce, just two years after their lavish wedding.

Sources claim the couple had made a final attempt at reconciliation, but have now decided to move forward with the divorce proceedings.

The pair, who rekindled their romance after a two-decade hiatus, tied the knot in a grand ceremony at Affleck’s Georgia plantation in 2022.

However, recent events have fuelled speculation about the state of their marriage. Affleck’s absence from Lopez’s 55th birthday party and his purchase of a new bachelor pad have added to the divorce rumours.

While divorce documents are reportedly finalised, they have yet to be officially filed.

The couple has been living separately for several weeks, with Affleck spending time in Los Angeles, while Lopez focused on other commitments.

The news comes as a shock to fans who had hoped for a lasting fairytale relationship for the high-profile couple. — Wires
