A rep for Michael Jackson's Estate has exclusively revealed that a new album featuring 10 never heard before songs will be out in November this year. These tracks may be from his recording sessions in the 80s or the newer material that he was working on with Akon, Will.i.am and Ne-Yo just before his shocking death.
It is estimated that Jackson’s vaults contain more than 100 completed and unreleased songs.

http://www./2010/07/actors-guild-bans-emeka-ike.html

The Chairman, Board of Trustees [BOT] of AGN, Prince Ifeanyi Dike, claimed that making the decision was inevitable as Emeka’s alleged misconduct and anti-guild activities are becoming unbearable.
“The actors in Nigeria have unanimously decided to suspend Emeka Ike indefinitely for anti-guild activities. We have also stripped him as the Vice President, South East of the guild. Let me use this medium to state that the move to suspend him was not made by the Board of Trustees, but AGN members who have been monitoring his anti-guild activities for some time now.“He has been disturbing the peace of this guild, sponsoring thugs to threaten us. So right now, anybody who deals with him on behalf of AGN is doing so at his or her own peril.”
Dike further claimed that he and other members of the BOT have been receiving life threatening text messages from unknown persons.
“Emeka Ike has been sponsoring some unknown people to harass us, particularly in Anambra State. I received a message recently that if I come to Anambra State, I will be killed,” Dike said.
Emeka Ike reacted that nobody can ban him from the guild.
According to him, “who is banning who? I have not heard of it, but the BOT has expired since 2008. Their tenure has ended and they have no power to ban me. They have no power again because they have lost in all the Eastern states where they claimed to be controlling. You need to ask them why they can’t go to some states again. You can also ask them if I have not suspended Ezenna Agu as the Chairman of AGN in Anambra State.
“I have filed a case against them in court and very soon, they will go to jail because I will not make things easy for them. They are the ones that will be banned. Don’t just bother yourself with anything they say because I’m the President of AGN and whatever I say is the final, just watch out.

There are reports that the musician is mulling a run for the top office in Haiti. Reached by phone, Jean told CNN that talk of a campaign is a bit premature as he is still mulling it over.

“I can’t sing forever,” Jean said.The Canadian publication Le Droit reported over the weekend that Jean would be throwing his hat into the political ring in his native homeland. But Jean told CNN that such reports reflect him being "drafted" but he hasn't decided for sure yet.

He added that he has filled out the necessary paperwork in case he does decide to move forward with a candidacy. Jean has been an outspoken proponent of Haiti through his Yele Haiti Foundation and was one of the first celebrities to offer aid after the devastating earthquake.
