Billboard released its top 10 reggae artist of 2007 and the Marley clan made 3 of the top 10. I was surprise to see Matisyahu at the top position beating out Bob Marley. With all the flak that Buju Banton has received over the past year, he managed to make the number 8 position. Beenie Man also demonstrates that he is still a force to be reckon with and his arch rival Bounti Killa did not make the top 10.

1 - MATISYAHU
2 - BOB MARLEY
3 - STEPHEN MARLEY
4 - DAMIAN "JR. GONG " MARLEY
5 - SEAN PAUL
6 - BOB MARLEY AND THE WAILERS
7 - COLLIE BUDDZ
8 - BUJU BANTON

This is a letter from Cash Plus

To Our Valued Clients,

The management and staff of Cash Plus Limited wishes to reassure our clients that despite the vicious and malicious rumors being spread by unscrupulous individuals who are averse to the progress of our organization, Cash Plus remains committed to its clients and continues to be a strong, sound and viable entity.

Cash Plus will not be deterred from our mission of ‘Building A Brighter Future for Jamaicans’.

However, it is clear that Cash Plus clients have been encountering difficulties, such as:

A lawyer runs a stop sign in Portland and gets pulled over by the Police. He thinks that he is smarter than the police because he is a lawyer from Kingston and is certain that he has a better education than any Jamaican Police. He decides to prove this to himself and have some fun at the Police expense.

The Police says," Yuh License an yuh registration, please."
"What for?" says the lawyer.
The Police says, "Yuh didn't come to a complete stop at de stop sign."
Then the lawyer says, "I slowed down, and no one was coming."

The election is over the results are in and today the Jamaica Labour Party is now the official party in power. But what about the Phinn prophecy? According to Dr Phinn, the self confess prophet, Portia Simpson and the PNP were supposed to win the next general election. Many die hearted PNP supporters were comforted by this divine intervention. But as we all know the prophecy did not come to past. My ultimate question therefore is “Did the PNP listen to the wrong prophet?

I came across this youtube video. The comments are really interesting and shows how much Jamaica is still divided. This election will not change anything most Jamaican will remain in "Third World" conditions if the mentality remains

"I am happy not to be there as well. The ability of a leader speaks greatly about the people who are being led. You may be a prime example. Try to forget about the curry goat your great grandfather got and think with sense. please make sure you get an education and try not to buy your degree like portia!! one love"
