Reggae Artiste Black Uhuru Biography by InfosysTV The most successful of the second-generation reggae bands, Black Uhuru maintained their high quality despite numerous personnel changes in their 40-plus-year history. The first reggae band to win a Grammy award, for their 1983 album Anthem, Black Uhuru was called "The most dynamic and progressive reggae act of the 1970s and early '80s." The band, whose name comes from the Swahili word meaning "freedom," was formed in the Waterhouse district of Kingston by Don Carlos, Rudolph "Garth" Dennis, and Derrick "Duckie" Simpson.

BREAKING: Greater Manchester Police say there are at least 19 people are dead and 50 or more injuried after at least one explosion at the Manchester Arena in northwest England just after Ariana Grande finished a concert there. There is no official word yet on a specific number of casualties or whether the case is being investigated as an act of terrorism, but NBC News is quoting multiple U.S. officials who were briefed on the incident say British authorities suspect that the bombing was conducted by a suicide bomber with a backpack bomb. All three U.S. cable news networks have pivoted to coverage of the incident. One witness told CNN she saw 20-30 bodies of people “clearly” dead and that there was “blood everywhere.” The venue is the biggest indoor arena in Europe, with a capacity of 21,000. British Transport Police said the explosion occurred in the foyer, near a ticket office. Sky News reports that a bomb disposal unit is on the scene at England’s second-largest city. Vide

RompHim is Jamaican man new style

SOCIAL media recently erupted with photos of a new fashion trend — RompHims — a project by the company Kickstarter, which is designing rompers specifically for men. Men online have been openly shunning the style and vowing never to wear it, while women have promised to disown their men if they dared to purchase, let alone wear one. Below All Woman sought the views of men on the new summer fashion trend. Hell no, hell no. I would never even think of wearing that. That's something my girlfriend has, both the short ones and the long ones. They are too feminine, and even if they had a rough look, how would I pee? She has told me stories of how she has had to basically undress in public bathrooms when she wears them. That's too much stress. No. Even if I lived in a foreign country that's more liberal, still no. It's almost like wearing female biker shorts with an attached top. And if any of my friends wear it, I think I'd unfriend them in an instant. I've seen t

Why do so many women settle for cheaters?

THERE are a million ways a man can hurt a woman, and even if she threatens to leave, when she cools off she usually forgives him anyway. But many draw the line at cheating — in fact, many no-nonsense women, especially when this happens more than once, see it as simply unforgivable, even questioning the moral compass of those who subject themselves to this kind of treatment. But there are several women who see cheating as normal, something to expect in a relationship, and who simply shrug when their men stay away for days, impregnate other women, or insist that it's not in their nature to remain monogamous. And while some women stay because they rely on the men financially or otherwise, there are others who have no need to remain in these situations, and yet they simply resign themselves. Why are so many women willing to settle for cheaters? Relationship counsellor Wayne Powell says that there could be several compounding factors behind a woman's decision to stay with a cheati

Story BY SHERDON COWAN Observer Some cried openly, while others sobbed quietly behind heavily tinted sunglasses. But they all wept.The heartbreaking scenes and mood were not easy to make sense of, except that all the beautiful people gathered at the Hagley Park Road Seventh-Day Adventist Church yesterday did so for the final farewell party for Jamaican-born British high jumping star Germaine Mason. His life may have spanned a brief 34 years, but the scores of well-wishers who flocked the church grounds and nearby streets stated one obvious thing – his time was well spent, erecting a lasting legacy. Mason's impact on the lives he touched will last forever. Full of promise in a life still to be lived to its fullest, Mason was cut off in the tender flower of youth when he perished in a motorcycle crash in East Kingston on April 20, not far from where he grew up. Affectionately called 'Ger' by family and friends, Mason was a solid rock, a shoulder to lean on. Olympic
