Dancehall act Ryan Sudlow,
more popularly know as Bascom X, was
arrested at his Hellshire, St Catherine home
and slapped with gun-related charges on
Saturday, December 22nd. Two other
persons - one of them a woman - were also
arrested and charged with illegal possession
of a firearm and ammunition. Their names
were not released by the police. The
Constabulary Communication Network said that
members of a police party went to Bascom X's
home at around 2:30 pm in search of a man
suspected to be involved in a robbery in the
area. On approach of the cops, the man
ran but was held. A search of the house
allegedly turned up a handgun, which led to
all three being charged. The three are
scheduled for court on January 8.

Reggae
crooner Terry Linen has
announced his presence back on the scene in
no uncertain terms with his "Mood
For Love" single, which is already
receiving good rotation on air. The
singer wrapped up the video for the single
last Friday and it's now in the editing
stages soon to be premiered. Recording
on the Uplifting Music International
label and Shot on location in Blue
Mountains, the music video was done under
the direction of Green Gorilla Media.
The plot for the video is the typical boy
missing girl and all the anguish of longing
for her and pining for that special someone
who just lights up your life comes out in
"Mood For Love." The
director exercises his creative genius here
as every scene, every touch, every look
depicted in the video brings out the central
theme of the song.
