People come for Brandy for posting 'negative' pics of Africa

Quite a number of people from different parts of Africa blasted US singer Brandy for posting pics on her instagram page that they felt 'portrayed Africa in a bad light'. Brandy, who was in Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire a few days ago to perform, posted the photo above and called it 'Beauty'. She posted another pic of three young boys in tattered clothing and called it 'depth'. 

Africans didn't see the 'beauty' or 'depth' in the photos. More responses after the cut...

Burna Boy was part of a gang that stabbed someone to death?

I did a double take after reading this report on Thenet.ng. According to the investigative news portal, singer Burna Boy was part of a gang that stabbed someone to death in the UK in 2010. See it below... 

Burn Boy’s ‘uncontrollable’ mannerism and persona didn’t just start yesterday; NET investigations and sources have linked him to a criminal past, a period of his life he would rather not make public knowledge.

We are told on good authority that while in the UK back in 2010, Burna Boy was arrested by London Police for allegedly being part of a gang and stabbing someone to death. He was tried as a minor and sent to jail.

After 11 months, he was released and given two months parole plus community service on the grounds of being of ‘good behaviour’. But Burna is said to have disobeyed authorities and travelled back to Nigeria where he signed a record deal with Aristokrat.

He later travelled back to the UK but was arrested at the airport and deported to Nigeria. He is currently barred from the UK for the next 15 years.

Gucci Mane Facing Up To 20 Years In Prison On Federal Gun Charges

Gucci Mane really hasn't had the best of years in 2013. He's feuded with many of his former affiliates, violated his probation and been arrested, was reportedlydropped from Atlantic Records, just to name of a few of his misadventures. And those misadventures continue with this latest piece of news, which may be the worst bit of news yet-- GuWop is facing up to 20 years in prison on federal gun charges.

We reported over the weekend about how Gucci was ordered to hand over all his guns and ammunitions. In federal court on Tuesday Gucci was charged with two counts of possession of guns as a felon, following two incidents in September when he threatened and showed cops his firearms.

We've been keeping you up to date on the various shenanigans of Gucci, but the federal prosecutor's news release shed more light on the incidents dating back to September-- around the time Gucci was going on his Twitter spree and had been dropped from Atlantic.

"On September 12, 2013, Davis, who was a felon at the time, was found in possession of a firearm," the release said via CNN. "Then, just two days later, on September 14th, he again possessed a firearm different from the earlier gun. On both occasions, Davis displayed the loaded firearm, acted erratically, and made threats to individuals, including police and his attorney."

Each firearm possession charge could result in a maximum sentence of 10 years and a fine of up to $250,000. We'll keep you updated as this unfolds
