Meet Prince Hugh Thompson CEO<br />

<strong>GUZIGAR</strong> ENTERTAINMENT & MARKETING INC.<br />

Prince Hugh Thompson born in 1966 Marlie Hill , St. Catherine, Jamaica.<br />

His parents are Ivan Thompson and Valda Lewis . Prince was a prize child according to his Dad and Mr. Shaw, his<br />

Godfather. Both reminded him that he was celebrated from birth. Bus drivers would stop and everyone smoking<br />

herb, drinking, reasoning having a great time,<br />

When I heard these things were happening I realized , that if as a child you're celebrated at birth, it meant that you<br />

definitely were destined to be a celebrity.<br />

I found out more and more that I was born to entertain after Entertaining for a while. I want to know more about<br />

the fundamentals behind the scene, based on listening to Beres Hammond, Denis Brown, Culture, Joseph Hill, and a<br />

whole lot more artists, the producers are robbing the artist’s revenue so I was more interested in learning about<br />

public relations and marketing and promotions and all that.<br />

After practicing these traits I realized media is a great part of the circle, so I went into Radio so I could play my own<br />

music, if the dee jays refused to play them. And that felt good. Then I ventured into acting. I was in the Movie<br />

“SCAM” starring Christopher Walken and Loraine Bracco.<br />

By then Christopher Walken taught me how to conduct myself on a movie set. While on the set. I got a speaking<br />

role but it was stripped from me for the strangest reason. The director wanted the baby to do a few more takes at<br />

the airport scene, based on the fact that I was also the senior casting partner with Mr. Hart who later didn't recognize<br />

my work, after I gathered about 150 mostly white people including the baby Annabella. The father of the child<br />

didn't want to stay a another minute cause the time that the Director asked for was expired and the father wanted<br />

to go. Now he wanted me to persuade the baby dad to stay one more hour. The guy insisted he was not staying not<br />

even for one more minute. For the first time I realized I couldn't make this persuasion, which was unheard of . I can<br />

convince an eskimo to buy snow in the winter.<br />

So the director cut my speaking role. my second movie break was “TOP SHOTTAS” starring Kymani Marley & Lenard<br />

“Louis” Ford aka Axe, Teddy Bruckshut , Louie Ranking was my real good friend. Spragger Benz, Wycliff Jean<br />

Paul Campbell. Only this time I’m a member of the CAST not a cast coordinator LOL, the Director was black and<br />

better yet seemed to be a Rastaman Mr. Cess Silveira so I<br />

came to the realization again say I can do this it feels<br />

good. I started writing my first movie script on the set .<br />

By the time we finished shooting in Miami I had completed<br />

the script.<br />

I had so many interesting stories to tell, so I'm going to<br />

tell them in my way..<br />

So I'm currently directing my first debut film as a Director<br />

and Star along with Henry Joseph and many more<br />

in the cast ..<br />

5 dayz to a Hundred Mill . its on (youtube.com )the<br />

Since I love history I started a magazine named B.O.B. Magazine initiated from the notion that there will be a<br />

What is it that white people want from us? We try to build our own society striving trading and staying welfare free, hoping they could see<br />

of the African people, that they called Blacks. Decided to misjudge our standards and values, basically tried to belittle our integrity and our<br />

makers of the City of TULSA, and invade us with bombs from the air and foot soldiers destroying churches, clergy men, kindergarten,<br />

judges, lawyers, hospital doctors, nurses, clerks, technicians, teachers, mechanics, police officers, a whole municipality, markets, barbersho<br />

fire stations, news paper company, radio stations ,animals (cats, dogs, pets ) everything looks like a war zone, even our veterans who came<br />

soil. was ever charged for this horrible & heinous crimes against humanity. In fact the organization who did it is still alive and<br />

Kapri a rapper born in Pompano Beach Florida to Haitian immigrants entered the scene as Kodak Black.<br />

to become a free man.<br />

A new hairstyle and a fiancée are also a result of<br />

the new lifestyle for the rapper. His past and present<br />

trouble with the law had it's origin in the<br />

neighborhood he grew up in. His ambition for rap<br />

started all the way in Elementary school and he fed<br />

his passion for words through studying. Early on he<br />

started using the name Black being recognized by<br />

his fans this way.<br />

Brutal Youngnz and Koylons where groups during<br />

his initial rap projects. A boost to his notoriety was<br />

given by Canadian rapper Drake. In October 2015<br />

he became part of the Atlantic Records label.<br />

In sheer contrast to Kodak Black's many unlawful<br />

activities he showed a streak of humanity by generously<br />

donating to various education projects. He<br />

also gave money to survivors of shooting victims<br />

and most prominently allowed financially Paige<br />

Cook to donate pencils to under privileged kids and<br />

set up a $10,000 scholarship for aspiring potential<br />

In 1978 he played the international<br />

superstar Sam Cook,<br />

where he pretended that<br />

these white boys were his<br />

valet at a nearby hotel.<br />

Mr. Moony was always one<br />

who found it necessary to<br />

highlight the struggle under<br />

police brutality to Hollywood<br />

disenfranchisement of African<br />

American performers of the<br />

Arts.<br />

He has never been afraid to<br />

voice his opinion on these<br />

issues .<br />

one of comedy’s pioneers and<br />

His Excellency ,The RT. Hon Neville Oriley<br />

Livingston OM. CD. OJ. OW. He left a huge<br />

void in our lives that cannot be filled. He was<br />

a man who lived his life on the Basic Principles<br />

of Rastafari. The most charitable heart<br />

of a human being and exceptionally humble.<br />

He was a man who would cook and bring<br />

you the food like he was the servant when<br />

you went to his home .<br />

One day B.O.B. Magazine visited 10 Darley<br />

Crescent only to discover Jah B was doing a<br />

dub plate for a sound system. While he was<br />

completing it, a little boy from the garrison<br />

walked in with his dad. The dad told Jah B<br />

that his son needed books for school. He<br />

didn’t know what to do. His spirit told him to<br />

go see the Don Dadda. Jah B asked him how<br />

much he needed ? The little boy answered<br />

and said $16,000 JMD.<br />

The person who purchased the dubplate had<br />

paid just Jah B the exact amount of $16,000<br />

JMD prior to the kid walking up.<br />

Jah B gave the dad the $ 16, 000 JMD and<br />

told him to go and get his kid the books.<br />

In another incident I gave him a booking for<br />

a show at the Roots Bamboo which I founded<br />

as Wednesday night live Reggae Beach<br />

Splash. I saw him with a Royalty Check for<br />

$ 430,000 USD he had received from Simply<br />

Red Cover of Love Fire. He cashed the check<br />

at his Chinese friend’s supermarket. He gave<br />

me $5000 JMD. Then he drove around the<br />

Neighboring Garrison and give it all away.<br />

When he returned to Darley HQ Jah B had<br />

$28, 000 JMD in his Lexus 300.<br />

I think whole heartedly that he always was a<br />

gentleman. Because of him the Police of Jamaica<br />

have eased the pressure on Rastafari<br />

in Jamaica . R.I. Power Jah B<br />

You will always be with us in true Spirit .<br />

“As Jamaica joins Africa in celebrating and recognizing Africa Day <strong>2021</strong>, Prime Minister Andrew Holness states that<br />

there are significant opportunities for lucrative trade, investment and tourism links between Africa and the Caribbean.<br />

The Prime Minister says connectivity is the greatest link between the region and Africa. In his remarks during the<br />

Africa Day webinar Prime Minister Holness highlighted major bi-lateral agreements signed between the Republic<br />

of South Africa and Jamaica.<br />

Agreements signed so far include direct flights from Nigeria to Kingston; additional flights are being discussed.<br />

The vision is to create “a more powerful engagement and exchange of a range of goods and services between the<br />

Continent and its Sixth Region.”<br />

Additionally the Government of Jamaica recently appointed its first Ambassadors/Special Envoys for Investment to<br />

Ghana, Nigeria, South Africa and Togo. Prime Minister Holness said the Government has been actively pursuing<br />

trade and investment routes that support business opportunities.<br />

“We are preparing to unleash new strategies for travel, trade and investment anchored in the will of our people to<br />

unite. There is the need for Government policies and intergovernmental arrangements to facilitate contacts between<br />

our countries to form even higher levels of trade and investment with economic returns to our people. This<br />

will require us to define the goods and services for which we are globally competitive, and redirect our investment<br />

and trade arrangements to include Africa and its Diaspora,” said Prime Minister Holness.<br />

In the meantime the Prime Minister said the country is on a path to promote itself as a hub for trade relations and<br />

investment arrangements between Africa, the Caribbean and the Americas. He noted that activating the African<br />

Diaspora of the Caribbean and the Americas as the sixth Region of the African Union is therefore imperative .”<br />

Andrew Michael Holness, ON PC is a Jamaican politician, who has been the Prime Minister of Jamaica since March 3rd, 2016 after the Jamai<br />

I believe if we see or know something that the P.M. has done we shouldn't be disrespectful in anyways. We shouldn't allow to denigrate th<br />

your concern in matters that concern you and other disgruntled citizens who share the same opinion. The other day a gentleman, a “pastor”<br />

by closing down big gatherings that relate to Covid 19 . The Pastor was not preaching the gospel of Christ, when he was calling on the PM to<br />

Christ Jesus raised the dead and never to kill anyone. And even when they crucified him his last words on the cross were “Forgive them Lo<br />

same reason which he died for. The most high sake he has risen. We are out fighting the evil spell for a man of color to sit in Jamaica House<br />

respect and love to the other 5% who don’t look like him. Based on common sense the P.M’s middle name is Michael. He was born in 1972<br />

for a kid that grew up in the Spanishtown. As kids we had to survive poison flower, we had to survive political division, we survived Weebl<br />

this was happening.<br />

36


can general election. Holness previously served as prime minister from October 2011 to May 29th and currently still is P.M.<br />

e office of the Prime Minister. A proper dialogue with the authorities in forms of peaceful demonstrations or a community letter and voice<br />

and we all know to respect our pastors, was so upset about the PM. Taking drastic measures in keeping the Jamaican people safe,<br />

die. He actually was taking a page out of the devil’s play book.<br />

rd, for they know not what they have done”. Right there and then Christ acknowledged the ignorance in humanity that he was here for the<br />

regardless if PNP or JLP. A man of color or a woman of color should represent the 95% of people that look like him and show the same<br />

when PNP Michael Manley was the Prime Minister. His parents must have had the vision that the JLP need a Michael too. Look at him now,<br />

y flower, we survived married grocery. We had the worst water crisis in the land of wood and water. Andrew was a kid like myself when all<br />

Andrew made a deal with China<br />

about the cockpit country.<br />

We must always remember that most<br />

of that land belongs to the Queen of<br />

England and she owns 33% of<br />

Jamaica. She still has a representative<br />

who works for her as the Governor<br />

General who she appoints. After the<br />

independence the power vested in<br />

the Prime Minister elected by the<br />

people to choose a queen’s servant .<br />

Jamaica needs more compassion for<br />

this position with the responsibility to<br />

keep Jamaica and its citizens safe and<br />

prosperous. His salary is<br />

$7.000,000.00 JMD annually .<br />

Now if we had a megaphone and a<br />

motorcade with just a little decorum .<br />

we could get his attention without<br />

wishing our little brother in High Chair<br />

to die. I personally rebuke that in the mighty name of Jah Rastafari. On the other hand we must do our own investigation and research<br />

in order to fully comprehend why certain transactions were made the way they were.<br />

If it does affect you, then be nice about it. Have the church forum invite the media and other clergy members, he will get the<br />

message. There is absolutely no need for an extreme threat and death wish on our legally elected leader. This is not the stone<br />

Age. We must look deep in ourselves and become a better version and make our presentation and recommendations and allow<br />

the PM to address our issue in due season. He is a busy man, so you need to give time to address it.<br />

My opinion on the cockpit country is that the Jamaican Labor Party (JLP) under the leader name Sir Bustamante sold out our<br />

bauxite for a shilling per ton at that time.<br />

The only good thing about that deal was, that they didn’t have permission to mine the stones. Jamaica produces the best Pink<br />

Marble. The Quartz is used in Chinese and Japanese Quartz Watches. Jamaican scientists and universities do the research on the<br />

land for its ecological values. B.O.B. Magazine Prince H. Thompson<br />

Michael Jeffrey Jordan, also known by his initials MJ, is an American International businessman and former<br />

professional basketball player. He is the principal owner and chairman of the Charlotte Hornets of the National<br />

Basketball Association.<br />

“One day, you might look up and see me playing the game at 50. Don't laugh. Never say never, because limits, like fears, are often<br />

just an illusion.”<br />

“Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence wins championships.”<br />

48


Michael Jordan is surely considered the greatest NBA player that ever played the game of all times. He is also<br />

the richest former professional athlete in the world with a net worth of $1.6 billion. In ten years this might turn<br />

into a $160 B. Either way we all have a pair or more of his shoes, only because they are very comfortable.<br />

And thy are Jordan's which goes' without say<br />

“There is no 'I' in team but there is in win.”<br />

After winning six rings with his team mate Scotty and Dennis and the others he finds it very easy to go fishing<br />

I know for sure what has been done in this wonderful game<br />

of basketball, that Michael Jordan is the greatest athlete of<br />

all times, but some say, LeBron is the greatest of all time<br />

Now in all fairness, LeBron may be greatest player of all<br />

times playing now but to say he is greater than Jordan, but<br />

personally I disagree.<br />

Michael Jordan won 6 Finals and had 6 Championship trophies<br />

23 means Blackman in Jamaican Lottery, meaning if you<br />

dream to see a Blackman, you would buy the number 23.<br />

As the black Jesus of basketball MJ never lost a finals and to<br />

me that is black excellence.<br />

LeBron James on the other hand played in 10 finals and<br />

won 4 championships.<br />

LeBron got the opportunity to be greater than Michael Jordan<br />

but did not capitalize on the jester.<br />

Based on Michael’s track record if he were given that same<br />

opportunity of 10 finals, Michael would have won 10 championships.<br />

If LeBron even got 6 rings after he retires, he still cannot<br />

compare himself to the G.O.A.T based on the statistics<br />

In all fairness, I can say the Blackman who wears the number<br />

23 will be the greatest of his generation of all times.<br />

Even if and I say if LeBron got 2 more rings he is still not<br />

greater than Jordan because he would have had to play 12<br />

finals to get 6 rings when Michael used only 6 finals to<br />

achieve 6 rings. If a player got the opportunity to reach the<br />

finals, especially when he is trying be greater than those<br />

before, you cant afford to loose a finals. If your name is on<br />

the lost finals list. Then you have right to compare yourself<br />

with Mr. Jordan.<br />

And For that B.O.B. Magazine declares Michael Jordan The<br />

Greatest of all time..<br />
