Vybz Kartel's legal woes took a significant turn for the worse when he was hit with a 2nd murder charge in Jamaica.

As we previously reported, Kartel, real name Adidja Palmer was charged October 3 with murder, conspiracy to murder and illegal possession of a firearm in connection with the death of Barrington Burton.

On Monday (October 24) the 35-year old dancehall artist was hit with another murder charge in the death of Clive Williams aka Lizard, according to the Jamaica Observer.

Also charged in Williams' murder is Kiro Jones.

“Arrangements are being made to have Palmer and Jones brought before the Courts shortly,” a police news release said.

Kartel is said to be "shocked at these baseless allegations, but has the greatest confidence in the judiciary and the legal system," according to his lawyer, Michael Deans.

'Cause I may be bad, but I'm perfectly good at it/Sex in the air, I don't care, I love the smell of it/Sticks and stones may break my bones/But chains and whips excite me. - Rihanna "S&M"

From her music videos to interviews, Rihanna has made no secret about the fact she likes to mix things up during sex.

The pop princess was spotted picking up a few essentials at a sex shop in Paris, France recently.

Riri reportedly dropped $1500 in five minutes on lingerie, toys, leather handcuffs, scented candles, bath-oils and an X-rated book, Omahyra & Boyd, by photographer Ellen Von Unwerth according to The Sun.

"She knew exactly what she was after and didn't want any assistance picking out items," an onlooker told the publication. "There was no dithering. She was grinning from ear to ear and seemed to be in a hurry to get back to her hotel."

Riri wasn't quite done shopping in Europe. A couple of days later the singer was spotted leaving a weed shop in Amsterdam according to The Sun.

We could be seeing a Lil Wayne collaboration with Tyler, The Creator sometime in the near future.

Wayne recently expressed an admiration for Tyler and his Odd Future crew and according to Tyler the feeling is mutual.


"Wayne's cool. I ran into him at my hangout back home, and he's just cool," Tyler told MTV News. "I wanted to kinda fan out and sh*t. But he gave me a speech about how happy he was that I won a VMA and that seeing my mom go crazy kinda made him feel like he won it too, because that sh*t was real as f*ck. He sat there for three minutes giving me a speech and I was like 'I just wanted to say The Drought 3 was my sh*t.' I couldn't 'cause he was sitting there like 'Yo, I love everything you do. That [VMA] sh*t almost made me cry.' It was awesome"


The Odd Future front man added that he has a beat in the stash for Weezy, he just has to muster up the courage to ask the Young Money CEO to hop on it.


"I actually have this beat that I want him on, but I was too scared to get it to Clancy [his manager] to get it to them, but Wayne's cool."

The feud between Webbie and Terrence J is heating up.

Webbie was a guest on BET's 106 and Park Friday October 15, when an incident occurred that caused the rapper to be banned.

“We would not like to thank Lil Webbie who is now banned from coming on the show. We will not be seeing him on ’106 & Park’ anymore,” Terrence said at the time.

No one is exactly sure what happened to cause the ban, but it has been speculated it may have had something to do with Webbie saying something inappropriate the show's co-host, Rocsi.

A new video just surfaced of Webbie talking about the incident. He said his ban has more to do with Terrence being jealous than anything else.

"I am BET. That's on ol' girl [Rocsi], she wanted this d*ck. Y'all seen the picture," he said referencing a picture that surfaced of Rocsi hugging him. "I didn't even know who the little b*tch was at first. I'm feeling somebody behind me and I'm like 'What the f*ck?' Then I see that h*e. Then I see this busta ass n*gga [Terrence J] from across the stage and he's like... [looks away from the camera]. You know how the bustas be when they try to act like they aint look? Next thing you know he come on tv 'Hey Webbie is banned off tv from BET.' Man get your h*e man"

Webbie said things could get heated when he sees Terrence again.

"I'm slapping the f*ck out of Terrence when I see him straight up," he said. "It's a personal issue you hear me? Terrence like that girl and that girl wanted me. I'mma keep on looking for Terrence--I'mm beat his b*tch ass up. You wanna act like a gangster on tv I'm beating your p*ssy ass up."
