a couple of things to talk about and we will do just that the topics are as follows um Lieutenant stitchy is unresponsive after severe brain hemorrhage I know some of you who are young buds you probably don't know who Lieutenant stitchy is but most of us in here should know who Lieutenant stitchy is if you're 880s 90s baby you definitely know who Lieutenant stitchy is Lieutenant stitchy is somebody that's prominent in the entertainment industry uh we would call him one of the Trailblazers Trend Setters and he was probably the first to leave from a life of at the height of dancehall music and went to church he was also a school teacher right he was also a school teacher matter of fact he used to teach with my auntie so he was also a school teacher as well brilliant guy um humble guy and all these things but life is lifing so one of the things that we didn't say this morning is today is September 4th 2024 and you know all Praises doe to the most high we are happy to be here nobody feel like you control this my friend you you don't control this all right just live every day with gratitude and live every day um giving praises and thanks you understand and try to be the best you that you can be because I keep waking up I don't know if this is probably a part of my mission is to just tell everybody I remind people every day that you don't control this so a lot of the times while you in the middle of your foolishness and friger just remember say in in like this fast your whole world can change you understand you're up and you're riding High don't be looking down on nobody else and a and a poop on them for lack of a better word because you know that Riding High stuff you ride high and then it's a long way down that fall gets even harder I'm just saying you're not in control of any of this uh you can do what you can or you can try to take preventative measures but I've seen people take all the preventative measures in the world we see people eat healthy them exercise regularly them do everything them live calm and Balanced Life Liv you know don't raise your voice above octave 10 because it disrupts your inner flow and them live perfect life sickest people you ever see they get hit with the worst sickness you know what I mean and then I see those smoke and drink can carry on me I wonder when you are dead when are you going to die I ain't lying I go back to Jamaica a lot and I see a lot of people in the community still man still a puff him big tobacco raw tobacco to and still drink him R him R nephew and still a St go about him business he been doing that since I was a kid I'm a big man now I'm like when are you going to die cuz everybody else around you where do the healthy stuff them dead and gone already right or on their way out the door so I'm saying I say that to say this you're not in control of this so forget everything when man tell you man don't run this yeah we're here we're here for a little period of time and it's all about what we can do with the time that we're given some of us are going to get long time some some of us are going to get short time we don't know who and we don't know when that's the thing right so Lieutenant stitchy is unresponsive we're going to get into his story um there's a young man whose story I want to be magnified this morning because it speaks to what I've been speaking about for the longest like on top of the brain draining and on top of everything else that's going on with us as a people from that particular small island um we are brightest minds are being murdered as well and the story is kind of sad because you know this young man was super bright and he was on his way to collecting his University degree becoming a graduate you know breaking generational curses and cycles and he was gunned down recently so we're going to talk about him and put some context to his story so he isn't just another person who got shot and swept under the rug and oh well you know I thing go keep it moving kind kind of thing maybe we can learn something or teach something from his situation that as well and then yesterday we spoke about a fishing community in mchill that was wiped out by barel and I said that I wanted to help uh people like those you know in any which way we can and we understand that you know some people out here on social media don't know social media is available for everybody I say this over and over it's available for the wise as well as for the fools so you going see all kind of comments on social media for a while I was taken back by the disrespectful comments and by the lies that people were trying to spread but I realize that if you let those people stop you then you you eventually become them you know that's another message to good people don't let bad people change you into being bad like them that is actually their goal their goal is they know they're low them know them low you know them know they're dirty and they want to see you become like them instead of them watching you and emulating you and trying to elevate themselves it's easier to drag down than it is to pull up it's hard work to pull up hard work and a lot of people a lot of people don't want to do the hard work that's the reason why a lot of people are the same way they are and they'll get to the point in life where they're like I just some still like me or don't like me take where you get right because they're they're refusing to do the hard work to transition into evolve into somebody better so we can't keep on follow them people here who spread these false rumors charity driver Jamaica vacation bu nice things for Guess asking for money to help people in Jamaica as the new way of scamming that's one of the things that they put out there about us right so I had to do everything very transparent put it all on video so everybody could see all the stuff laid out we purchase watch me P the bar watch me send off the barel them these kind of things and even when we do that if you're going to do something good just do it why you have a video camera there why also you do this for likes you're not really doing it because you know so any which way you go you can't win with the people them who are the Skeptics and the criticizers and those who mean anybody no don't mean nobody no good even their own people one thing I will say though before I say this is ask yourself though look yourself in the mirror and ask yourself what when you put efforts forth to destroy people who are willing to help people who are in need and you discourage those people do you know that the people who are in need are still in need and are you going to fill that void cuz it's like me handing a loaf of bread to a hungry person and you box with a loaf of bread the hungry person is still there there's still hungry are you going to replace that loaf of bread with another loaf of bread from yourself if you're not then you're a wicked red person that's what I'm trying to get through to my people we have to elevate ourself and start think better and do better right that's one of the conversations we had earlier this week with one of the callers that were calling in we have to change our mindset as a people and it starts with us and our mindset right so one of the things we're going to talk about also this morning is highlighting some good and know not because it's Vibes Cartel son but because it's in the line of what we've been talking about I was watching their utg initiative foundation in action yesterday and I was like wow you know like they they're they're giving back a lot they're giving back a lot and they're helping in a time when the help is really really needed to see how these boys were raised and what they have become like a pillar in their Community especially at such a young age them could have follow any other kind of company but here they are and they're doing great things so we have to highlight the great things because if they were doing bad things we would have highlighted the bad things too right right so that's where we're at this morning um with this live we're not going to stay on too long I'm trying to make it a solid one hour live and then get off and go rest my throat before my voice actually go all the way gone and then I can't be on tomorrow C Robinson says karma is a [ __ ] for those that hinder the meek and weak and vulnerable absolutely and they're not seeing it they're not seeing it but let's get into Lieutenant stitchy story first so Lieutenant stitchy soon as we say Lieutenant stitchy let me see one of his songs that come to mind young we your size young girl wear your size if you don't Tex the advice girl then you would get Lieutenant stitchy he probably has many other s not probably he does have many other songs um he's a he's he's one of those word Smith kind of DJs and you know just a lot of stuff I could say about him as an artist but veteran DJ Lieutenant stitchy has been reportedly hospitalized in Kingston after suffering a debilitating stroke on Tuesday you see when we talk about you do everything right the man say leave dance him gone to church he's turning his life over to the Lord and get baptized recommitting himself he's been doing God's work ever since and him DJ only clean stuff and that's why I was saying lady s can do the same thing she can still do dance song cuz she was isn't the first lieutenant stitchy PVE the way first right and then others follow just clean up the lyrics CU Dan don't have to be dirty per se so if you want to be in dance all you don't have to just leave completely you could have clean up the lyrics it's him I was using as an example David Rodney his former manager told the Jamaica Observer that the Entertainer's family confirmed his hospitalization Rodney however could not confirm the context of the illness there seemed he said there's been talks that he suffered a stroke but that's up to the doctors to determine first he said he they said it was a hemorrhage brain hemorrhage and he um he was debilitated not on on responsive and this is what's coming out there's been no official statement from the medical team yet is what his former manager said now news that stitchy was devastated by severe brain hemorrhage did the social media rounds early on Tuesday and his family has set up a GoFundMe account to raise money for his medical care Rodney who managed s's career from 19 88 88 to 95 that's quite a bit of years said that he last spoke to the 58y old toaster Entertainer several weeks ago and that he was upbeat about the new projects that they have in the works our observation or our conversation rather was what was about music and he was eager to work on this new album right Rodney said he said that he was aware he was aware of stitchy having medical issues this year during a show in Canada already H we didn't know about that now a former athlete and school teacher Lieutenant stitchy whose real name is cleave Lang cut his medical teeth on the competitive sound system circuit in Spanish Town his hometown during the early 80s alongside other aspiring artists such as Papa San Papa um went to church too Wick man major worries them kind of foundational artist there and in 1986 he got his mainstream breakthrough with the hilarious here he is wear your size young girl wear your size young girl wear your

of secular music a whisper whisper bre young girl we your siid and the next one here is called noty dread send one that's one from Lieutenant stitchy which is another rib tickling hit because he

1997 Lieutenant stitchy became a born again Christian in 97 he became a born again Christian and has since recorded a number of inspirational albums and songs the GoFundMe appeal can be found at and I

um on the Gund me concerning Lieutenant stitchy so according to his family he is unresponsive and he's going to need a lot of help I go back to saying you don't control this you don't control this and you don't know what's coming shout out to my auntie Marine that's my favorite aunt Auntie Mar said you know nephew we all get a package you know yeah we all get a package from the Creator yes and you don't know you don't know what your package going to be and the longer you live and are around the more likely you are you're going to get that package kind of like say you're dead and drop out young and healthy your your package is there some will be Alzheimer's some will be dementia some will be you know heart attack stroke some will be what whatever the case may be but we're all there's a package there is life you know is life and this is life's journey remember none of us will escape this alive don't it not one of we here smiling laughing joking will get out of here and transition alive that mean we have to go through that passageway that's called death but usually before death comes some form of suffering or some form of ailment or sickness that takes us into that realm that we call death or that passage then not call it de really but I'm just using that word for I call it transitioning but I just use that word because that is what is more familiar to other people as well so again I will leave the GoFundMe um information for lieutenant stitchy pinned at the top of the comments after this live is done and it will be the first comment pinned there for those of you the one and two who might or will then it'll be there for you right for the rest of you who normally just send out priers because you don't want to send a dollar just go and send out your priers same way see I won't tell you don't send your priers but dollars work with priers it's like faith without works is dead so you can wish that he's getting proper care all you want to and you can pray about it all you want to but until the money is there to make sure that it happens more than likely it will not happen right that's we at with that it said let me just say this quickly too Gund me I've said this before GoFundMe is was not established for I don't know if you know it GoFundMe was not established for people who say particularly got sick and wanted money to save themselves or to pay for their medical bills GoFundMe was pretty much established for crowdfunding that means if I have idea and I said I want to open sofo TV restaurant in Florida and I've been doing cooking videos all along and my and I've gained an audience of hundreds of thousands of people and they're like yo your food is banging when you going to open a restaurant light goes on how do I start a restaurant when I don't have the money to start one ask your audience for the money so you set up a gofund me right and then your audience would be like man I can't wait for you to open a restaurant here's $10 here's $5 here's a dollar here's 50 here's $20 here's whatever you can give and then when the money is accumulated I would use that money to set that restaurant up and then those audience will transition from being online to coming to my actual brick and Mar restaurant that is what GoFundMe was all about but luckily GoFundMe has it can be used for this too right so if you're stuck in your medical situation and it's going to cost more than you can afford then you can reach out to go fund me as well there are people out there who feel like people like Lieutenant stitchy them a DJ from back in the 80s the man have no money to take care of them medical bills have no insurance in place have no this and no that I want you to remember something the people who laid the foundation for what we enjoy today as dance hall music and reg music back in a few them time the the checks weren't that big the were not that big the young Bo you see today the Roger Wild and the young boys you see today the and clear some big check that the the people who paved the way never dreamt of seeing one of those types of checks you understand so uh they were more like doing it for the love of doing it and of course it was also about being somebody Progressive and productive it was a career path and it was a career path that you could afford to pay your bills off of and feed your family off of but it wasn't no career path that you could stack great riches up off of look if you look into the fraternity it's not waste them waste out them money stitchy left that kind of brous Life first of all he was never that kind of person but if you want to say he left the Brado docious part of danceall reg music and went over to transitioning into his Christian Life from 1997 way back when so it it's not like know there were supposed to be all this money piled up sitting in the corner waiting for anything old time DJ some rich if you look in the fraternity most of the oldtime DJs they're not rich they're nowhere near Rich they're regular they their financial status is regular regular yeah it's the newer DJs you see with all the Flash and they they they get paid big checks to do shows they have all the hype their generation and change things they have social media and all these other kind of things you know and streaming and all that so it's a different time so please don't look at this like we not help him cuz and then shouting out to the dance hall and reg music fraternity as well y'all a lot of out there are doing pretty well for yourself and you can reach out to your brother and help him out I remember when the Goof and me went up for bu Bon son and people were like big Grammy Winer money bu supposed to go me and within less than 24 hours that Gund me was taken down you know what I think happened there I think the family members who put the G onund me up never got in touch with buer before they put the go fundme up or I think that buer banton's friends cuz you know buer well connected to some super rich people in the industry so I think bu B's friends were like yo buo oh snatch down that goof on me bro yeah we not a r like that we got this so I'm hoping that Lieutenant stit is treated in the same manner somebody call him family put on pull your resources together cuz y always bragging about your red bottoms that cost $500 a appearer and your $10,000 this and your $50,000 that and this when we just have imported the car is a import foreign feature you know 180 this cost you know English pound I hope some of you could actually be like yo um see what with stitching snatch down the go on me there what was the goal of the go on me okay we have that all right C I hope it I'm just hoping I'm just hoping I'm sewing a seed and hope the seed grow you know what I mean kadra Empress says look at the way they talk about beanan one time sister in who oh who had cancer yes remember Bean man's sister-in-law caren's um sister that had cancer um she passed away not too long ago that's the same thing they were doing they were beating the brakes off beanie man big beanie man every time you see him is a be man a Ben and a travel and this and that come on man beanie you you alone should have be able to pay for all that I be trying to tell y'all what you see ain't really what it is I don't know our people see a b a be Audi something newer and they're like yo money I don't know why we equate money to cars cuz it's a lot of BR people out here driving a nice car I'm just saying there's a lot of broke people out here driving a nice car it's a lot of people out here who are m just upkeeping of appearance and image because it goes with their career Fields but if you check their finances they have very little and nothing you know what I'm saying so don't let it be that for you where you're deterred from being helped because you think what you see is what it is cuz half of the time more than half of the time it's not what it is at all lady J says Andre spoke about the go on me on Monday I think okay lady J know why we need know if Andre spoke about it but or what good will that do for us but you can go over to Andre and and see if you find um or lady jel

I've done I've done covered stories on Andre before um and I don't mind sharing I'm not that kind of person but me like cuz some people get carried away and they start saying the wrong names and they know why they say the wrong names you know me and Andre don't have nothing big up to Andre but there are other names out there that people drag come over here and there's storm brewing in the background if understand what me say you don't you how should I say it now you don't give your your somebody who has made their s your enemy for no reason and is slandering you and you're not responding you don't want people bringing them over here for in and putting them in front of you you know what I'm saying right so with that said uh she made me laugh whenever I was in her presence God Rest her soul somebody said true they can't pay insurance or by gas and Stacy and William says yes s please post it uh nandy says that makes sense NAA TV says 100 yeah man some of them just nasty and disrespectful and the kind of stuff they're over there saying and I don't go over there it's the same people that love mix up and me love the mix up sometime but that part the mixup yeah so that's how I get them call watch this and it's in my Bo so open it now and hear about wife this and P them that and I'm like why is this person talking like this about me I don't even know this person I've never said anything bad about this person and it's multiple of them so you know refrain from the name thing um anyhow I guess it comes with the territory so we ain't crying right let me save this page real quick so I don't forget to put this up there I hope technology is Advanced one day quick when we can just like this in the air grab it and throw it on the screen and then it's right there from this computer to this one and it's right there I don't know we don't know what the future holds he's a true musical genius yes Lieutenant stitchy is and you got to go check out his work don't wait till another thing before me transition into the other topic don't wait till our greats have passed for us to give them their flowers we tend to be a kind of people that are conditioned in this manner when they're alive we act like we don't see them and then when they die we act like we were their biggest fan right oh my God in dead you send your best FL we kind of do that in real life to our family members as well and our friends as well right them show up at your feral with the biggest bucket of flowers them show up with the most prettiest this everybody nicely dressed you know tears streaming down their face that time you did sick for about five years before you dead you know and you did a Act for help for the whole 5 years before your dead you know and then put you in an expensive coffin and then make sure your grave site nice and all this and then drop you in the ground and cover you it's like you're happy that I'm dead you're celebrating that I died you know all the money spend could help help me with it and probably would have still be alive you know give me some more years so you come spend all this now put me in the ground that that's that's the sentiment that's what I get from it so give the Giants them and the Legends their flowers while they are alive that's what I say right that'sa another fun fact about me that a lot of people don't know is that I hate name dropping but I'm going to do it anyways because we're talking about Lieutenant stitchy a family member of mine is Professor nuts I am related to Professor nuts and not not not distant family but close family I don't know if some of you knew that as well but I'm related to Professor nuts as well speaking of Dance all and reg music entertainment and the people who are in the industry Professor nuts is my close family member you know uh so just throw that out there as well and Lieutenant stitchy taught with my auntie who was a teacher as well and she is now the director of a hospital in Upstate New York so real thing me I tell you and real people and real events and real life right all right with that said and I'm related to Jesus Christ K Empress said we're all related to Jesus Christ we're related to some more people but I won't put them out there yet I think those who've been following me for a long time know the other people that I'm related to as well but my relation to these people don't big up my pocket or make my dollars grow and it don't feed my children or nothing I was just putting it out there that that's what that is all right let's go to some good news real quick so little Vibes before my phone run out of life and prosperity cuz I heard the battery little Vibes I'm so proud I am so proud and at this moment I have to again give my respects to Tanisha Tanisha is Vibes cartel's baby mother the woman that had these children for him uh and the woman that raised raised them in the decade and change that he was not around and and to see how these boys have turned out into Stellar young men you know top earners for themselves and Stellar young men who are giving back in a major way it makes me feel proud so big up to Tanisha you did a good job as a mommy you never lose none of your youth them to the streets or to anything all the other trappings that we see Beall the people who are are famous or have some money and then them children just go the wrong way you know so here he is saying what he's saying and then I'll get into the details of [Music] ITA initi know that initiative is just to give back to the society Jama you know stop a great feeling that we can start here in and you know my family is blessed enough to can do this and you know be able to give back to the community and it's a it's a really great feeling because you know po more has a lot to do with my development and you know today we just gave back some books some pens some pencils as well as some paint paint of the school up it look nice some as well you know so this initiative is is is is going to be great get copyright infringement [Music] [Music] right the man say yoes big initiative up ini everybody get familiar with it you know December coming keep with it all right so that's him talking about the initiative as they are putting in the work me know get a copyright infringement for that because the music did overpower too long but that's cartel in the song talking to his son you know him said Vibes Addy watch the road pre everybody enough Hypocrites out here don't like your daddy make sure hustling a hobby come mix up out here with gangs and guns and this and that and the other and that song was made while he was in prison speaking to his children through music so we love them kind of thing and love to see the positivity that goes along with it now the the the the writing shout out to dance hall mag says that adijah AE Li Vibes Palmer the eldest son of danal star Vibes Cartel has donated essential supplies to six schools in in Portmore through the utg initiative Foundation which he co-founded with his little brother Akil laddi Palmer and ioon Palmer AO is this the youngest brother iiko is super smart and super quiet you it won't be hard to pick out who he is but this effort marks the beginning of what the young entertainers hopes will be a sustained campaign to bolster educational institutions throughout the Island's Nation we decided to give back to the schools because we know that most parents are struggling to cover school fees and buy supplies for the new term is what lior Vibes said in that release right there we bought what better we thought to ourselves what better way to help than to support the kids directly not with a prior but directly because we can so the initial donation Drive conducted on August 30th focused on providing material that are crucial for enhancing the school's infrastructure and operational capabilities the beneficiaries including Waterford primary and Infant School portsm basic and Primary School Waterford High School Cumberland high school and these schools received a range of items from school supplies to construction material and Equipment paint over the school make the school look nice patch up the wall them where you know thing a p break off and all these kind of things among the donated items were pens and pencils paper books um school bag markers for students and teacher supplies as well as cement paint blocks the new bathroom fixtures that are needed to update the bathroom them in the school addressing both immediate educational needs and the long-term needs of the facility itself the Palmer's initiative reflects a growing Trend among Caribbean artists who are leveraging their influence to affect positive change in their Community Leela just did hers in chisana Christiana my ends them there and these are the things that I am hoping to be able to do as well if the people not stop spread rumors py and actually get the people them to actually help and donate you know what I mean then we could step out as a united front and make changes as well now the Palmer initiative reflects a growing Trend among Caribbean artists who are leveraging their influence to affect positive change in their communities there's a vlogger out there named Kino Kimo Kimo does the same thing as a vlogger and he has a super supportive audience who allows him to be able to do these types of things right it also highlights the critical needs facing Jamaica's education system where many students and many schools struggle with inadequate facilities and limited resources of course at this point you want to say to yourself Jamaica is not a poor country the money is being used in a messed up way in other words make we cut the long talk short and don't try pretty up nothing politician them tee off the whole of the money so the schools are dilapidated a lot of them and the roads on the way to these schools full of pothole where you can jump in a and fish out and if your car drop in there you need rescue from them that's what we talking about but guess what we've been crying and saying politician this politician that for the longest and we notice nothing is changing so apparently we're going to have to do for self instead of waiting for them to do for us in the meantime we hope that the people mindset changes when election time come so you remember who was in power and couldn't get the simple things done for you and no say they don't need to be in power anymore and you switch your tose and give some else a chance to see if these things can come to fruition for you right instead fight up yourself vote labor right till Mead P till Mead andone of them not doing what they supposed to do when they're in power for you anyway back to this he emphasized that this initiative was inspired by his father Vibes Cartel and his longstanding often unpublicized philanthropy efforts now a lot of people don't this cartel from social Med social media bust not too long ago but of course he's making use of it because that's the person he is up to the time but his children are following in his footsteps in a positive way right giving back and never forgetting where you come from and the more you get is the more you can give back kind of things some people hoard all their riches and then go show off other people who don't have not even half of what they have there's no joy in that so don't ever forget where you come from Cartel always been that and a lot of people don't understand that this is why a lot of people love that guy like crazy because even within their constituency he does more for them than the government or governing bodies elected bodies are doing that's why Try label him as a done that's why Try class him as some who run the place there and ganger anytime and that's another thing about Jamaica anytime you rise to a position in life where you know you are in a position now to fix up a whole community and you have a voice now so you can't say yo my youth bring that want see that again all right yo grab 12 of them you from over there come over we help fix up and build up the school and school see whato no computer we put a computer room in there because computer age now the youth them in the community need to be familiar with a computer inside and out so put a computer center in there put six computer in there put the youth them in there anytime you start moving like that you are done you are lock the place and and and for some reason I think it's because the government themselves they're shamed they are ashamed because they're getting put to shame by citizens citizens are doing what they are supposed to be doing and the citizens them know say you have the money to do it and you're not doing it so when they show it to the people so we spread kind of message done yeah you the 12 from over never the 12 come we commit crime you know the 12 youth if you go through the community say yo I'm a G that I'm a boss that and a man so them say yo is a him send them commit crime and it's not so The Story Goes that's why I keep telling people stop following certain narratives that are put out there and get to know the truth how the place actually really run for True right if you ask about people will tell you that under Vibes Cartel a whole of Youth go school school fee pay uniform bought books paid for kept kids in school keep even food P people table and them house bills paid and these kind of things so to see him here still doing it but even here's the big part the big kicker even while Vibes Cartel was incarcerated his initiative was still active I'm not asking you I'm telling you this his initiative was still active and still giving in this manner so now his children have picked up and started their own initiative to run alongside his initiative it gets no better than this man this is what you call leading by example right he said that we started important more because that's where we're from the idea for this initiative came from watching my father he's been doing things like this for years just not always in the Public's eye and we're continuing that Legacy by giving back to our community and I like to say big up to little Vibes big up to Little Addy we watched you guys grow from your early days till now right you from um from them just start from they were so tiny till now and we're super proud we're super proud and we still shout out shy as well for what she her role in making sure that these children stayed on track and became productive Progressive members of society but not only that they not just make it little bit they are thriving in a manner that they're able to give back so much right and continuously give back so much and lead by example as well so I think the legacy is in safe hands and I'm super proud of them for being this and for doing this and y'all can go look it up just like you have the Bounty Killer foundation and we shout out bounty all the time just like you had bu trying to do the same thing but they wouldn't give it to him in Jamaica because them say buo um you know him did have that background whatever and then you have Leela ik who does the same thing quite a few people um utg initiative Foundation is what it's called utg initiative foundation and if you don't know what utg means it means Uptown Gaza you know you have D town yeah get people something and then you have up soel something yeah ghetto that's come from and then but children them and not celebrate no ghetto because they are born into riches and father them Father make sure it's set like that for them right come walk fo them come drive Ben and B then not come and not come beg nobody for nothing they are set up already to be Progressive and successful up utg stands for up Gaza utg initiative look it up and they will be doing another drive again in December so stay on top of that and look out for that as well big up to the youth that met me super proud uh onto our next topic though for the morning this young man right here this is kind of a not kind of it is a sad story uh how should I lead into this story now we try balance the positive with the negative so we talk about lieutenant stitchy and I'll post his information and that was kind of a somber kind of a topic and then we went into the utg initiative Uptown Gaza that's a positive thing and then now we're going to go into our last topic for the morning which is a University of West Indies uh student who was known as a high achiever he was murdered before he could collect his degree if you look at the icon this morning for this video You Will seeo Watson he is the brother tall brother in the strip Champion shirt red blue yellow something Champion shirt to the far right of the icon for this morning the Buffalo sod rest says you don't have to be a done to be a good Steward to your community LeBron James and others have done the same and they don't run the block they just give back as they remember where they come from the difference there is my friend the Buffalo soldes is that that is America and what we are talk about is Jamaica and Jamaica run a different way from America and that's what I want a lot of people to understand too even before now that you've said that even before getting into even before getting into listen speaking about wanting people to understand how Jamaica run remember I've told y before I said I used to be one of the people that used to remember left Jamaica long time even though stayed in tou with my culture and stayed in touch with Jamaica you would think say left Jamaica big but I left when I was little now check it I come to realize that boy s you have to go put your foot in on the people them shoes for really understand you know cuz you there saying stuff that people are hitting me on the Inbox and they're saying understand but think you really know so like Dr the place come see what link up with show you blah blah blah so after I saw what was going on and I fully understand now my narrative has changed over the years so some people are saying I'm a criminal supporter a gun man friend him a gun man himself all these things about me which ain't true is not true at all I'm a lot AB biding taxpaying citizen I do believe in an advocate for self-defense and I do believe in an advocate for keeping a firearm on me or around me at all times just like shoot it out in case have to go defend my life right but I don't advocate for no damn criminal and criminality or criminal mindset so when we were saying to the people them work with the police call the police and tell them what you saw and all that it was hard for me to explain to people who live in so-called First World countries where if you pick up the phone and dial 911 or 119 or whatever you dial police at your door in a second it was hard for those people to see what it is I was saying cuz I was trying to give you the reality in Jamaica tell you stuff like police station Clos 7 8 and 9:00 at night so anything happen so good luck no response till tomorrow right you live in a place where police responds 24/7 you don't know what it's like to live in a place where nobody respond till tomorrow your house Catch Fire you better find a way to put that out because fire department not responding and that go B down flat you live in a place where the fire department is close by and you dial emergency and they're there with big hoses hosing down to save some of your belongings you talk to the police and the police can take care of you and protect your family and don't say who did what and go after the criminals and catch them and clean up your community you can put up cameras and all these things and nobody says anything you talk about Jamaica where in a certain place the people put up camera Gman shoot out them camera there or if you put up the camera on scene remember know people are putting everything on social media so when a man know is a gunman see a footage of himself walk Community blood CL know so next thing you know the individual that owns that property is gone down yo take the r camera dog man camera blah blah blah a different kind of scene my friend talk to police so much police in corruption you don't know who is a gang member police you don't know who is a Hitman for a or a gang member or who is a government Hitman sanction you don't know who is who so you got tell somebody sometime and you end up dead all you was trying to do was clean up your neighborhood so once you start to understand how the difference is between where you are at versus how Jama run then you will be like yeah LeBron James and them they they give back and nobody considers them to be a Don or anything that are Jamaica versus America two totally different po tea two totally different po of soup bubble right right that's how the place goes and once we know that then we could have more empathy for the people and the condition that they're in stuck between a rock and a hard place so when you hear man say yo life rough know take it just like that some place it really rough if true yeah all right K Emperor says it's my second amendment Amendment right somebody say I wonder if that has a foundation that says um I shouldn't call her name so I'm not going to call her name anymore but uh I don't know if she has a foundation either she does have a heavy presence on social media speaking about everything so it would be fitting for her to have a foundation I don't know if she has one or not I can go look it up you know or you can go look it up since I'm not allowed to speak about her but enough love to her same way so the University of West Indies High achiever murdered before he could collect his degree his name is keano Watson and his dreams to take his family especially as his mother out of the inner city were shattered the 23y old was the youngest of three children for his mother Sandra Blair but he was the first person in his family to attend University on Sunday when he received his status letter from the University of the West Indies that he had met the requirements of fulfilling his degree

a school get education and become somebody big you know and watch take you out of that place put you in a somewhere nice unfortunately the allent town Kingston resident will never fulfill This Promise because he was cut down in a hail of bullets standing outside of his gate on Dam's Road on Monday Monday gone Blair was consumed with grief when she was visited by news reporters from the Star and other media houses but it's through the star popsy is his nickname you know the whole we have nickname or most we have nickname so she call him popsy remember know youngest of this your wash belly

she had to BU up her belly to ensure that she received his tertiary education after he graduated from St George's College in 2017 with a total of 16 C SEC and Cape subjects a brainiac a little bright youth you know back of the class no subject was a trending me and ding them was a trending thing for quite a while and I think me and Shakira was just talking about this like we can't believe so we reach a place now where people proudly say me don't I'm proud back of the class we have no subject D chargeing them and I remember one time gone where that was so embarrassing that even the D children did not want to be called d p would a fight you in a school in a man if you call somebody D it was like saying suck your mother it was a fighting word right if you can't fight them you fling all two big Stone after them and run that's how embarrassing dce was so I've lived long enough now to see it reverse to where people said I'm proud to be done and back of the class no subject he told me not to borrow any student loan to send him to college because he wanted to take me out of the ghetto say if him pay back student loan it would have take forever for him to achieve his dream me beg me borrow and when him do work and travel him save him money from work and travel and him help PE off him student um tuition them you know the the program that they have where as a US student you can go abroad um and my mom did it when she had her restaurant open right here in Florida and took students from Jamaica to work at her restaurant throughout the summertime and they go home with a nice paycheck you know what I mean a nice sum of money where you would see them start shopping like the week before them go back to Jamaica then make sure save this amount buy up this and that going to

foundation I don't knock people's beliefs and it works for them and it works for them and it works for a lot of other people as well right so she said he told me not to borrow any student loan to send him to college because he wanted to take me out of the ghetto and say if pay back the student loan take him forever to achieve this dream so beg and borrow and when him do work and do go travel and work pay off all of the money them and travel and work and help to pay sometimes I just $1,000 him get to go UI and he would make a sandwich and him carry him sandwich and never complain in the status letter letter the University of the West Indies congratulated him on achieving this major Milestone I was so pleased to inform you that your certificate will be ready for collection as of September

couldn't go out the gate because any go out there to fully look at him it would have been two bodies because I wouldn't come out there alive she said so she couldn't even go out there to look at her son and this is how the article ended now boy popsy close this video off this morning by saying this often time us as people with these types of platforms we highlight negative things and truthfully because we realize that our audience members find that more entertaining and they gravitate towards that so the youth them who are coming from adverse circumstances but are determined to make it out cuz it ain't where you start is where you're heading and which part end up so papsi was one of them youth know that was determined and his mother was determined notice you don't hear nothing about no father in the picture and one of the things that drive me to be an example myself and yes me mention Vibes Cartel because another one like when a r with deadbeat daddy with a friend boy don't take care of them youth them even if you not with the woman you're supposed to present in the youth life right a mother shouldn't have B up belly and talk about oh she alone do it and try put the the picnic through school and all this now I don't know their circumstances I don't know if the father de and that's how she end up without the father or anything like that but we've seen these too many times right now without going off on that let's get back on track highlighting the negative stories yeah all fun and games fine and good but but we often forget youths like popsy them right we often forget these youths who stand firm under great pressure and great adversity keano Watson otherwise called popsy determined to change the trajectory of his family's life not just for better himself not just for come out of which part him there gunot bu people dead here but I'm use my god-given intellectual abilities and get us up out of this mommy you see our life set up that's why I'm telling you say wake up every day man act like you're grateful you know control this we started out this morning with Lieutenant stitchy we end it with popsi look at the look at the turn off graduate listen to mother as a youth some fresh stuffy stuffy all right some fresh m a c of te and drink it probably the cup of and drink it mmy you know what that mean to me at theme age is somebody that respect his mom respect her words and follow through on her instructions even when they're small that's somebody to be honored the letter from the University of West Indies says his degree was ready to be picked up just bring your government ID any day starting September 2nd today September rotted 4th the brother dead couple days ago after him received that letter shout out to the youth them who have to fight their way up out off a lot of people don't understand your struggle and your pain a lot of people don't understand your reality that's why we here we don't care if want to call with criminal support all this we're trying to bridge the gap so people actually understand that there's a reality here happening in this beautiful island that a lot of us like to romanticize and Jama nice and if you look at the tourist picture beautiful but I keep on bring you to the reality of a lot of our youths them in that same Paradise there is Hell on Earth for them don't ever forget that popsi K Watson we salute you bro you did well you did great great you did super great the time was cut short and only the almighty Knows Why with that said mothers and respect to each and every one of you tuning in this morning if you're a person that's a Praying person and you believe in prayer and you believe in whatever you believe in Keep On Believing in that your relationship with the almighty Creator is your relationship with the Aly Creator no watch nobody else understand all right know some people laugh when the lady come on just now and say what she said but if it's not your thing it's just not your thing if you want pray to a fruit tree that's your business if you think the cow is almighty God then that's your business if the rain is God for you and the sky and the Sun and the Moon and not the person who created all of them is your business but allow people to indulge in what it is that gives them strength to stand in situations like these right now if we have to over wall and see one we own P shut up dead just like the woman said we probably would have coll understand right people keep a Praying Spirit go with God be good bless you that you can be and I'll catch you tomorrow
