TID vs. Hasheem Face-Off
Tanzanian singer TID might find himself back in jail if threats made against him by NBA star Hasheem are anything to go by. It all started at Club Billicanas where the Kilimanjaro Music Awards after party was taking place.
To the shock of everyone TID walked straight to Hasheem and started hauling insults at him as he threatened to square him up.
After a moment of verbal humiliation the rather humble laid- back Hasheem could not take it anymore. Together with his boys, the NBA star pulled TID to the car park outside the club where he thoroughly beat him. And now word has it that Hasheem wants to take legal action against TID for the humiliating act

Chiko blasts Ringtone Ringtone, who is arguably one of the most loaded gospel musicians in the country, has been advised to donate some of his money to charities instead of living large.
Chiko Lawi , who was master of ceremony during Mr & Miss College beauty contest, held at the carnivore last weekend threw the verbal jab saying money and fame had gone into the Pamela singer’s head.
“ You all know this gospel musician of the hit song Pamela, he seems to have forgotten all about children’s homes after rising to fame. He should be donating to them instead of living large,” said Lawi.
But then again, Lawi was at the same time behaving badly, holding a bottle of alcohol, which he continuously sipped-before the crowd-as he emceed.
“It is so wrong for one to start talking about someone they hardly know. I run a lot of charity work and I can only say he was talking out of ignorance,” Ringtone told UEG on Telephone. “The fact that I drive a good car does not mean I don’t think of the needy,” he concluded.
