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.
The “Dronegate” scandal at the 2024 Paris Olympics has taken a new turn as the Canadian Soccer Association appeals FIFA’s decision, to dock the national women’s team six points, in the group stage.
The appeal argues the penalty is disproportionate, following the discovery that a drone was used to spy on a rival team’s training session.
The appeal does not challenge FIFA’s one-year ban of coach Bev Priestman, the suspension of CSA officials Joseph Lombardi and Jasmine Mander, or the $226,000 fine.
The six-point deduction leaves Canada in third place in their group with zero points, despite wins over New Zealand and France.

The Office of Utilities Regulation, OUR is to provide a comprehensive update on the steps it has taken to ensure speedy restoration of power to Jamaica Public Service, JPS customers.
The update will be done at this week’s Post Cabinet Press Conference tomorrow (Wed) at 9:00am.
Energy Minister Daryl Vaz and the JPS have been updating the nation on the company’s power restoration efforts since Hurricane Beryl’s passage on July 3.

Mr. Vaz wants the OUR to apply more pressure on the JPS.
Meanwhile, Minister Vaz says the Jamaica Public Service, JPS needs to reinvest in its infrastructure.
