By -

Celebrated RnB sensation,Philanthropist, Actor, Producer TYRESE GIBSON who has evolved into a coveted entertainment juggernaut made a post on his Facebook page recently about the just ended 58th Grammy Awards. The owner of Voltron Recordz expressed his disappointment to the fact that he did not take home an award that night even though his Black Rose album did very well on the market and on various charts. Below is what he said on his Facebook wall:

Every ten years this world will produce someone who's not afraid to speak OUT!!!! Someone who doesn't live his life in fear.... Someone who stands firm in his faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and more importantly who has REAL TALENT doesn't live his life consumed in gimmicks and random ploys of getting attention with baseless issues...... My open letter to the Grammys.. Me and my daughter had a blast she was able to meet her favorite artist and more important SEE her dad get on stage and perform while the whole world watched.... People are going to decide diminish my points into a rant, or say that this is jealousy or me being competitive..... That's not the case at ALL!!! I've gotten a million calls and text messages with the outpouring of love and support and confusion so here's my response.... My #BlackRoseAlbum was #1 on the top 200 Billboard - #1 in 15 countries.... Approaching 400k sold domestically and internationally and I'm independent - with my label #VoltronRecordz song #SHAME this week is #1 for 16 weeks...... But yet I came home with no Grammy... As much as I wanna make this about me.... Because it's always been a Chidhood dream to win 1 just 1... That didn't happen... And the whole world watched this go down...... I'm concerned about my genre.... R&B Soul... Black R&B soul artist being stuck on URBAN AC RADIO ONLY - and getting no love from MAINSTREAM RADIO!!!! You can't expect anyone to download, run to a store and buy or steam an album that they don't know EXIST.... Shame #1 for 16 weeks and still only being played on urban AC???? When white R&B soul artist sing... They're played on ALL formats of radio and their sales reflect that..... Why is the R&B Category in the pre-telecast?  You're sending the message that R&B Doesn't matter... This is my request to R&B Soul Singers..... We need to have a real meeting like for real.... And urgent meeting cause shit has to change and change NOW or our genre is going to DIE!!! I don't play the politics and bullshit game.... We need to have an open dialogue and create a list of demands or decide to STAY HOME..... Sometimes I wish SAM Smith, or Justin Timberlake or Robin Thicke world of sung SHAME cause DJ Rogers Jr ( who wrote it ) and Warryn Cambell ( who produced it ) and And legendary Richard Furch ( who mixed it ) would of gotten their GRAMMY!!!  If Robin Thicke, Justin Timberlake or Sam Smith had sung shame my album would of SOLD MORE and my song would of been played on literally every radio station that exist!!!!!!! I'm not gonna go quiet.... I'm not gonna sit on my hands......

Dancehall king, Shatta Wale has acknowledged that he is blessed beyond measure but says only Angel Daniel Obinim and a few pastors can explain the kind of blessings he has received from God. Ever since Shatta Wale rebranded from Bandana to his present brand, everything the artiste has touched and brought has turned to gold. He has been consistent in the music industry for over three years. Shatta Wale who is religious when he is in his studio but wild when industry players take him for a ride use any opportunity that comes his way to give thanks to God for his mercies. Well, in a post on Facebook, the artiste has sang the praises of Angel Daniel Obinim, leader of International God’s Way church and a man frequently embroiled in several controversies saying he is the only pastor who can explain how great the Lord has blessed him as an artiste. He said:” Only Bishop Obinim and few men of God can explain how great the Lord has blessed me..God bless you daddy.Good morning”. Source: my
