A producer that's worked with Ye aka Kanye West states that controversial rocker Marilyn Manson is working with the rapper on the sequel to his \"Donda\" album. Digital Nas spoke about the pair in an interview with Rolling Stone, highlighting the \"crazy dynamic\" that lies at the heart of their creative relationship.
BRIDGETOWN: Barbadian voters bought into the philosophy that they are “safer with Mia” wholesale and re-elected the ruling Barbados Labour Party (BLP) into government with a consecutive clean sweep of the 30 seats in Parliament.
Preliminary results showed the BLP had won all the seats in the election, which Prime Minister Mia Mottley called 18 months ahead of the constitutional deadline, and in the process allowed the party to become only the second political organisation in the Caribbean to sweep all the seats in an election on consecutive occasions.
The other time that has been achieved was in Grenada, when Prime Minister Dr Keith Mitchell led his New National Party (NNP) in winning all 15 seats in 2018.
Reacting to the results on Thursday morning, Foreign and Caricom Affairs Minister Dr Amery Browne said, \"For my part I wish to sincerely congratulate the people of the Republic of Barbados on the peaceful conclusion to their 2022 national elections.
\"I also warmly congratulate Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley and her BLP team on the emphatic renewal of their mandate to serve that nation and her people. The Republic of Barbados continues to exemplify the strength of democracy within Caricom, and we can be confident that she will continue to inspire and provide good example to the rest of the world.\"
Mottley made it seven out of eight victories in the St Michael North East constituency, easily defeating the Democratic Labour Party (DLP) candidate Damien Griffith by a margin of 3,216 to 476. Roy Turney of the BFP polled 48 votes.
Mottley, who had already signalled that this would be her last general election, told supporters she would be announcing her new Cabinet on Monday and that later on Thursday, she, along with Dale Marshall, will go to meet with President Dame Sandra Mason to be sworn into office. Marshall returns as attorney general.
Mottley defended the decision to call the election early, saying it was important to “take fresh guard” as the island moves into the future to deal with a changing global socioeconomic situation.
“I thank you, you the people of Barbados for accepting us at our word that if we do not fix our problems starting from tomorrow we will not be able to guarantee safety to our people in the next ten-15 years.”
Mottley said the three-week campaign had been “rough,” telling supporters, “We wanted to start 2022 as far as possible on a fresh guard…and you have given us that opportunity.”
She recalled that on May 27, 2018, she had told the nation that (from those) “to whom much is given, much is expected,” adding, “I repeat tonight that that is our commitment to you, the people of this nation.
”I promised you…we would be the opposition to ourselves and regrettably there were those who felt that they would spawn their own opposition and do the things that would make this country almost difficult to govern,” she said, an apparent reference to Bishop Joseph Artherly, who had been a member of the victorious 2018

ANDY Alberto Macias-Hosein was a university lecturer who left his homeland of Venezuela to seek a better life for his wife and son in Trinidad.
On Saturday, he was killed at his workplace, a jewellery store, on High Street, San Fernando.
Macias-Hosein earned US$3 a month in Venezuela. He graduated with a BSc in Spanish, Literature, Latin with a speciality in Greek mythology and was awaiting accreditation to get a teaching position in TT.
While he waited, he did jobs where ever he found them to support his family back home.
On Sunday, his brother Kenny said that was what he was doing on Saturday when he was shot in the back by the men who robbed Ketan Jewellers.
“The human body is trained to do two things: stand still or run. My brother chose to run, he did not do anything wrong, and for that he was killed. Shot in the back by a coward.”
He said Macias-Hosein was no threat to anyone.
“Andy was not a bad person. He was just trying to make an honest dollar.”
The four men who entered the High Street business place, smashed a showcase and escaped with an undisclosed amount of jeweller, killing Macias-Hosein in the process.
One man from La Romaine has been held as the search continues for the others.
The Hosein brothers were born in Venezuela, to a Venezuelan father and Trinidadian mother who died in 2015. They had dual citizenship.
Hosein said brother has been coming here for years, spending months away from his wife, Denise-Ley and their son, Francisco Abraham Macias, 7.
“Every night when he came from work, he would go on WhatsApp and talk to his family and read a story for his son.”
On Saturday night when Macias-Hosein did not call, “Francisco asked his mummy why his daddy did not call.”
He said the child broke down in tears when told what happened to his father.
“They are in shock. They are in a mess over there. My father, he is 78, he is distraught.
“He (Macias-Hosein) was planning to return to Venezuela in April, spend a few months with his wife and child, and return to TT in August/September.”
He said when the autopsy was done, funeral arrangements will be finalised. “He will be buried here. He always said where ever he dies bury him right there.”
