Last night, Club Amazura was the epicenter of a sensational performance and unexpected drama at the highly anticipated T-Vice and Carimi concert. The event, which promised a night of thrilling music and dance, delivered much more with unexpected turns that kept the crowd on their toes. Carimi’s Electrifying Performance The night kicked off later than expected, with Carimi not taking the stage until around 12:30 AM after extended sound checks.

We’ve all heard the buzz on the latest turmoil Zenglen is facing due to Nicky’s final decision to leave the band well it’s almost official and this time around it just might stick. This is not the first time Nicky has threatened to leave Zenglen when his demands weren’t met. I guess Zenglen didn’t believe him since his previous threats never materialize to anything more than just empty threats. From my sources, not only is he serious this time around, he has a press release prepared to go out any day now. The press release won’t be telling you any…
509 is not looking back far as Kenny is concerned. The band held an audition last night. They are looking to replace Kenny and their current member, Stanley who’s also decided to leave the band to pursue his solo career. Kenny, one of the founding member of the band, left to 509 to join Zenglen as lead singer replacing Reginald Cange. The first potential new recruits are Mac D of K-Dans’ brother, his name escapes me at the moment so I’ll have to get back to you guys on that. The second potential member to be is none other than a…
The weather spared no mercy, and with the switches in the lineup from Zenglen & Djakout and finally going with Krezi Mizik & Djakout, the promoters still prevailed. The turnout was excellent with an estimated 1800 or more, the crowd well behaved and both bands delivered one of their best performances. First up was Krezi Mizik whom the fans seem to be getting used to with each performance. They did a good job. One thing I’ve complained about Krezi in the past is their lack of showmanship but the band seems to be more into delivering good music rather than…
Ralph Delly opened up the press conference by sending a message to all media, especially the Internet ones: “I want the media to try to educate the public, especially those on the Internet, it is your role to analyze the new releases by the band, you have to help guide public opinion. If you follow certain message boards, I’m not going as far as saying it is a detriment to the industry, but a lot of negative comments that are said with no good merit can break a band; it is up to the media to alert the public when…

There was a bigger presence of the mainstream media,…
King Kino, celebrated his birthday with his close friends and fans at a private gathering that took place at “Mixed Notes Café” last in Elmont Long Island.

This was a very private affair where admission was only by invitation. The King’s birthday is actually the 23 of December, but he is expecting a similar…
