The Associated Press spoke with a dozen people in rapidly growing displacement camps during a visit to southern Somalia in late September. All say they’ve received little aid, or none. A day’s meal might be plain rice or just black tea. Many camp residents, overwhelmingly women & children, beg from neighbors, or go to sleep hungry.

Mothers walk for days or weeks through bare landscapes in search of help, at times finding that the withered, feverish child strapped to them has died along the way.

“We’d grieve, stop for a while, pray,” Adego Abdinur says. “We’d bury them beside the road.”

She holds her naked 1-year-old in front of her new home, a fragile hut of plastic sacks & fabric lashed together with cord & stripped branches. It’s one of hundreds scattered over the dry land. 

The home the 28-year-old Abdinur left was far superior — a farm of maize & dozens of livestock in the community where she was born & raised. The family was self-sufficient. Then the water dried up & their 4-legged wealth began to die.

“When we lost the last goat, we realized there was no way to survive,” Abdinur says. She & her 6 children walked 186 miles here, following rumors of assistance along with thousands of other people on the move.

“We have seen so many children dying because of hunger,” she says.

At the heart of this crisis, in areas where famine likely will be declared, is an Islamic extremist group linked to al-Qaida. An estimated 740,000 of the drought’s most desperate people live in areas under the control of the al-Shabab extremists. To survive, they must escape.

Al-Shabab’s grip on large parts of southern & central Somalia was a major contributor to deaths in the 2011 famine. Much aid wasn’t let into its areas & many starving people weren’t let out. Somalia’s president, who has survived 3 al-Shabab attempts on his life, has described the group as “mafia shrouded with Islam.”

Those who escaped al-Shabab now cling to a bare existence. As what should be the rainy season arrives, they wake in camps under a purple sky, or a gray one offering the tiniest specks of moisture.

With his newest release ‘LateNights EarlyMornings,’ BanditKid, along with featuring artists BanditSlim and DirtReid, presents a laid-back and sincere narrative

Atlanta, Georgia — October 13th, 2022 – A fantastic trio which is ready to charm and stun audiences, BanditKid, BanditSlim, and DirtReid mark a resurgent entry with their hit new collaboration- “LateNights EarlyMornings.” Having dropped for all audiences on October 8th, 2022, the new single is available for streaming on BanditKid’s official music platforms.

A compelling and inspiring new single, “LateNighs EarlyMornings,” is yet another honest, bold, and characteristically appealing drop by BanditKid. The artist’s awe-inspiring lyricism and resonant vocals are fittingly complemented by BanditSlim of The MoneyTrain Bandits, as well as DirtReid of SFE.

“LateNights EarlyMornings” displays an animated yet laid-back, chilled-out vibe, putting audiences in the right state of mind, no matter how they may be feeling. While the Rap and Hip Hop genres continue to grow around the world, few rising stars are able to deliver tracks that hold power and depth to move audiences- a feat at which MoneyTrain Recordings’ BanditKid excels.

The music I make is real rap… sometimes you might be listening, and you’ll hear my voice cracking because the pain is real, the loss of my homies or relatives is real, the chances we took are real, the long nights are real, the time I spent in jail is real and the grind is most definitely real,” says the artist regarding his music style.

Motivated by his nieces and nephews, who love his music and are inspired each day by his own drive and passion for music, BanditKid continues to excel and evolve. Having been making music for a long time, the artist hopes to keep growing and reaching as many listeners as possible. He plans to follow the new single with three more original Rap tracks before the end of the year.

BanditKid, BanditSlim, and DirtReid will also be performing on October 27th for the Bigga Rankin and TampaMystic Industries Most Wanted Showcase at Crazy Atlanta, at 8 pm.

Stream, buy, and download BanditKid and The MoneyTrain Bandits’ new music on all music streaming platforms, and share the music pages to spread the word!

The Black Lives Matter movement is going after Kanye West for the controversial "White Lives Matter" shirt he wore to his YZY Show, saying it's nothing but a stunt to hurt folks fighting for justice.

In a statement to TMZ, BLM says ... "While some may see Kanye and Candace's stunt as a distraction, we recognize that it harms thousands of families fighting for justice for their loved ones killed by state-sanctioned violence."


BLM's also ripping Candace Owens -- who also wore the shirt -- for what they view as spreading "toxic confusion" ... claiming the shirts, and phrasing, can be "used to legitimize violent assaults on Black people."


Kanye should know better, BLM says, telling us ... "Kanye knows very well that 'white lives' have never been targeted for oppression. Black folks, in contrast, are at the bottom of virtually every economic, social, and political measure because of centuries of individual and institutional racism."


For his part, Kanye says he wore the "White Lives Matter" shirt at his fashion show because he thinks BLM "was a scam."


Naturally, BLM disagrees ... they say the movement will benefit everyone in the long run because "when Black people get free, everybody gets free."

Kanye West seems to be saying he wore a "White Lives Matter" shirt because, in his mind, Black Lives Matter is nothing but a racket.

Ye took to IG to respond to all the blowback he's been getting -- and it's been A LOT -- over a shirt he & his Yeezy models were rocking during his fashion show Monday ... which had the controversial message plastered across the back.


Ye says, "EVERYONE KNOWS THAT BLACK LIVES MATTER WAS A SCAM NOW ITS OVER YOU'RE WELCOME."

What he's referring to, it seems, is the fact that a small handful of BLM executives who've been caught in alleged scandals over the past couple years -- including 1 honcho accused last month of siphoning $10 million from donors & another who's been accused of using BLM funds to buy a house.


Candace Owens -- who was also on hand Monday for Ye's show, wearing the shirt too -- has been one of many critics on the right who've latched onto this, despite denials from the BLM execs & it would appear Kanye's skeptical too.

There's more ... KW also went after one specific person who criticized him because of his fashion choice/political statement -- a contributing editor for Vogue named Gabriella Karefa-Johnson, who called his shirt "dangerous" & "irresponsible" in a well-thought-out analysis.


His response was more simple & quite frankly childish ... making fun of her wardrobe. He posted a photo of her, roasting her shoewear, saying -- "I KNOOOOOOW ANNA [Wintour] HAAAATES THESE BOOTS."

Kanye went on to say ... "This is not a fashion person. You speak on Ye. Ima speak on you. Ask Trevor Noah."


Gabriella doesn't seem to have responded to Ye's barbs just yet ... but she was far from the only blue checkmark to have blasted him for his stunt. Kanye was trending all day because of it -- with many recalling other controversial statements, including his infamous suggestion, while on "TMZ Live," that slavery was a choice ... not to mention all the MAGA stuff from over the past few years.

Boosie Badazz is making it VERY clear, Kanye West's "White Lives Matter" shirt has taken it way too far ... and the Louisiana rapper is calling for someone to pull Ye's Black card!!!

The ever-outspoken Boosie laid into Ye after the WLM shirt made its rounds on the internet ... accusing the YZY brainchild of abandoning his race in spite of all the opposition African Americans have historically faced.

Ye has yet to explain the true meaning behind his latest racial stance, but Boosie says Ye blatantly doesn't care about any Black deaths at the hands of White people.

Boosie then went for the jugular ... dismissing Ye's infamous 2005 Hurricane Katrina moment when he said then-President George Bush didn't care about Black people during a live telethon.


Political pundit Candace Owens also joined Kanye in wearing a "White Lives Matter" shirt during the presentation ... which angered people even further.

Ye describes the new Yeezy line as the "future" ... but some people feel like the gear is setting Black people back.

Three U.S. Postal Service workers stole credit cards from the mail while on the job & bought more than $1.3 million in designer duds & accessories to sell online, Manhattan federal prosecutors said.

Chanel, Fendi, Hermes & Dior were the brands of choice.

U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said the workers’ “brazen criminal conduct” began in December 2018.

The scam saw them “manipulate credit card companies & major retailers across New York & New Jersey by stealing credit cards and using those cards to purchase & subsequently sell, luxury goods,” Williams said.

Postal workers Nathanael Foucault, Johnathan Persaud & Fabiola Mompoint allegedly swiped the cards & handed them off to 5 associates or “shoppers” who bought the luxury clothes & bags at department stores in Manhattan, Brooklyn & New Jersey.

Foucault, Mompoint & Persaud are facing charges of access device fraud, bank fraud & other related crimes.

The accused “shoppers,” Rahsaan Richards, Devon Richards, Conrad Heron, Louis Jeune Verly & Kareem Shepherd, are still at large, federal officials said. As was Johnny Damus, who directed them to buy what he resold on LuxurySnob.com, which describes itself as an online store specializing in “pre-owned luxury items.”

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- Officials say that a 6-year-old boy was killed after he was run over 3 times by a man who told police that he had been drinking on Saturday evening.

Pedro Alberto Hernandez, 52, is charged with murder & DWI 4th offense.

According to records, the boy was with his grandfather walking across a parking lot when he was struck.

The grandfather yelled at Hernandez, who then allegedly stopped, backed up & then ran over the child again, causing one of the tires to rest on the face of the child, as stated in records.

The grandfather continued shouting & Hernandez was again accused of running over the child for the third time.

The boy's grandfather told police that Hernandez reportedly smirked at him & attempted to drive off. The grandfather pulled Hernandez from his car & pinned him against the hood until other witnesses held Hernandez down until police arrived.

Hernandez admitted to drinking four 16-ounce beers while parked at work before driving to a washateria where he was going to meet someone who owed him money.

This would not be the first time Hernandez is accused of drinking & driving.

Records indicate he was convicted of driving while intoxicated in Harris County in 2015, convicted of DWI in Freestone County in 2016 & also convicted of DWI in Fort Bend County in 2020.

He is still serving 5-year probation for the 2020 DWI conviction.

Hernandez appeared in probable cause court Sunday, where a judge set his bond to a combined $600,000 for both charges.
