AINT THIS SERIOUS!!

Snoop went to Jamaica a Dogg but returned a Lion after a religious and artistic awakening.

Rastafarian priests bestowed the new moniker Snoop Lion upon the music icon when he visited Jamaica in search of “a new path.”

“I didn’t know that until I went to the temple, where the High Priest asked me what my name was, and I said, ‘Snoop Dogg.’ And he looked me in my eyes and said, ‘No more. You are the light; you are the lion.’ From that moment on, it’s like I had started to understand why I was there,” he explained at a press conference.

Born Calvin Cordozar Broadus, Jr., Lion has always felt a special connection with Jamaica’s most celebrated music legend, according to news.com.au. “I have always said I was Bob Marley reincarnated,” Lion said. “I feel I have always been a Rastafari. I just didn’t have my third eye open, but it’s wide open right now.”

This spiritual development has revived Lion’s artistic energy. After years in the music industry, rap started to stale for the 40-year-old music icon. Ever since he appeared on the scene with “Doggystyle” in the early 1990s, Snoop has been a prominent player in west coast hip-hop. But Lion welcomes musical change and growth.

While in Jamaica, Snoop finds himself embraced by the Jamaican people, and is positively impacted by Rastafarian culture.

“I’ve been on the top ever since I’ve been in it,” he explained. “I got rap songs that will never die. And that ain’t with no disrespect but I’m tired of rap.”

While in the studio, he distanced himself from his musical past by referring to Snoop Dogg in the third person. “F*** Snoop Dogg. Don’t think about none of the s*** he rapped about: hustling and making money and drug-dealing and shooting. All that s***’ll be out of here,” he said to his collaborators in the studio.

Snoop Dogg says he was “born again” during his visit to Jamaica in February, changed his name to Snoop Lion and is ready to make music that his “kids and grandparents can listen to.” The artist known for gangster rap is releasing a reggae album called “Reincarnated” in the fall.

With reggae, Lion has the chance create music that all ages can enjoy – from children to his grandparents, who might not have been able to enjoy his harder-edged rap catalogue.

“I’m a wise man in the music industry,” he said. “Not that I’ll never do rap again because I’m always gonna do what I love, but right now I’m Snoop Lion and I’m having fun with this reggae movement so hopefully you guys will enjoy it as well.”

Vice Films – in association with Snoopadelic Films – will release a documentary about the artist’s transformation from Snoop Dogg to Snoop Lion at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 7.

Snoop Lion’s first single is “La La La.”

JAMAICA’S ER

LISA NAH GWAAN WID NOTHING FI DI 50TH I AGREE

REGGAE veteran Burning Spear is voicing his displeasure with the celebrations to mark Jamaica’s 50th anniversary of Independence, especially as it relates to the music industry.
Pointing to the enormous contribution reggae music has made to Jamaica’s development over the past 50 years, he questions why the Government is not organising major reggae concerts across the island to celebrate the achievement of the country’s world-rated indigenous music.
“What I am seeing is everybody organising their own event to make some money and calling it Jamaica 50,” noted the artiste born Winston Rodney.
The two-time Grammy winner also wants to know why offers have not been made by the Government to people like himself and other major reggae artistes to participate in any official Jamaica 50 celebration.
“Even promoters from Jamaica are trying to book me to perform overseas on their Jamaica 50 shows, so that’s why I have to ask what role is the Government playing in all of this celebration”, he stated.
Spear argued that a celebration of this nature should have been organised in a way that it would attract Jamaicans from all over the world to come home for the activities; as well as the thousands of potential visitors who would want to be a part of this great event.
Burning Spear, who now celebrating over 40 years in the music business, said he was compelled to make these comments because since last year he has been getting a lot of requests from Germany, London, USA, and other countries, from people who want him to perform on their Jamaica 50 events; and that he finds it rather strange that not one of those requests came from the Jamaican government.

REAL MIRACLE!

WTF AFRICA- PRIEST HANGS HIS FROCK ON CEDAR TREE TO DO THE DEED

CATHOLIC PRIEST caught having SEX with a PROSTITUTE in a maize plantation

Monday July 31, 2012 – It seems the men of God in the country have now turned to be sex pests.

On Sunday evening, a catholic priest in Ngong town was caught red handed having sex with a town prostitute in a nearby maize plantation.

The man who is in his early 50’s was caught by church members after a local herd boy alerted them. He had earlier carried a baptism ceremony during the day.

It was alleged that the pastor spotted the “hooker’ in the church on Saturday during confession time and gave her a date.

The man of the cloth was found naked “engaging in the ordeal” hanging his church gown in a nearby cedar tree.

When irate church members confronted him, the promiscuous priest said he had stayed too long on celibacy vows and he was just doing it to recount his early age memories.

His lover said she was paid Sh 200 to “quench the thirst” of the randy priest.

The congregation now wants the Bishop of Ngong Diocese to take action before the situation gets out of control and brings the church into disrepute.
