Jamaica’s Court of Appeal has ordered the release of dancehall artist Vybz Kartel and his three co-accused from their 2011 murder conviction of Clive “Lizard” Williams.

The unanimous decision, led by President of the Court of Justice Marva McDonald-Bishop, was based on 12 factors including the severity of the crime, the prosecution’s case strength, witness availability, retrial feasibility, and the toll of their 13-year imprisonment.

Ahead of his scheduled court appearance in New York, Dancehall deejay Rygin King has announced the postponement of a show in Trinidad.

The deejay, who is expected to appear in a New York court on Emancipation Day, August 1, used his verified Instagram account to apologize to his fans in Trinidad.

In the video shared with his over 747k followers, Rygin King cited “circumstances beyond his control” as the reason for missing the event slated for August 10.

On July 8, Rygin King, along with his wife Ilene Parker-Smith and four others, were stopped by police in Queens, New York, while traveling in a Ford Explorer. According to reports, a loaded firearm was allegedly found in Rygin King’s possession.

A nine-year-old PlayStation 4 video game has skyrocketed in price following the release of the long-anticipated film Deadpool & Wolverine last week. 

Fans wanting to get their hands on the 2015 game Deadpool have paid as much as £116 on eBay – with an unopened copy in top condition selling for almost 500 US dollars last week. 

It is no longer available for digital download, meaning gamers must seek out physical copies if they want to play it. 

The renewed love for the game seems to be a direct result of the popularity of the new film, which made over $444m (£345m) on its opening weekend.

Back 2014, Adijah Vybz Kartel Palmer and his co accused, Shawn Campbell, Kahira Jones and Andre St John were sentenced to life in prison after being convicted of the 2011 murder of Clive “Lizard” Williams.

In March, veteran dancehall artist Beenie Man opened his restaurant, Simma Seafood and Bar. However, the Grammy-winning artist says it will be relocated.

The new location will be near Beenie Man’s Shocking Vibes Production Headquarters, off Constant Spring Road.

African musical giant Burna Boy has teased his new album.

Last night (July 29), the “Last Last” singer took to his X (formerly Twitter) account to announce that his album would drop at midnight.

The post sent fans into a frenzy, with one social media user commenting, “Came like a thief in the night.”

Soon after, the ‘City Boy’ artist posted, “No Signs Of Weakness,” which is the album’s name. Then he tweeted “Empty Chairs” before sharing a snippet of the song on his Instagram page.

In the now-viral clip, Burna Boy stands listening to the track with a group of people while vibing and singing along.

“My enemies are no longer on the streets of the road. Now they’re on the internet for the blogs…” are some of the song’s lyrics.

The clock struck midnight, and fans realised there was no album. One X user commented, “12:01 am, all men do is lie.”

“No Signs of Weakness” will be the Nigerian singer’s sixth studio album.

The court of appeal is expected to rule tomorrow (Wed) if there will be a retrial for Dancehall entertainer Adidja “Vybz Kartel” Palmer and his co-appellants.

The matter has been set for 2:00pm.

Kartel along with Shawn ‘Shawn Storm’ Campbell, Kahira Jones and Andre St. John were sentenced to life imprisonment in 2014 for the 2011 murder of Clive ‘lizard’ Williams.

However, their murder convictions were quashed by the United Kingdom-based Privy Council in March because of jury tampering.

Last month submissions were made for and against the retrying of the men.

The appeal court said the ruling was to be expected before the end of July.
