In today’s Daily Rap, poor old Shyne is barred from entering the UK, whilst N-Dubz star Dappy called the cops on his girlfriend after she gave him a broken nose.
Shyne Barred From Entering The UK
Recently-freed rapper Shyne faced even more problems with immigration officials on Thursday when he was barred from entering the U.K.
The hip-hop star walked free from prison in October after serving eight years of a 10-year sentence for his part in a 1999 shooting in New York, and was deported back to his native Belize immediately after losing his appeal to stay in the U.S.
After arriving in his homeland, Shyne returned to the recording studio with producer Scott Storch to make his first new music in more than a decade, but upon arriving at London's Heathrow airport on Thursday to meet with U.K. producers, he was turned away from entering the country due to issues with his travel documents.
Shyne's last two albums, his self-titled debut in 2000 and Godfather Buried Alive in 2004, were made up from songs recorded prior to the 1999 shooting, which involved his then-mentor Sean 'Diddy' Combs and Combs' girlfriend at the time, Jennifer Lopez.
Dappy Calls Cops Over Broken Nose
N-Dubz singer Dappy called in cops after he received a broken nose during an argument with his girlfriend.
The N-Dubz star contacted the police when a bust-up with lover Kaye Vassell got out of hand, leaving him with injuries to his face and needing hospital treatment on Saturday.
A source tells Britain's News of the World, "They'd been out the night before and had a massive fight the following morning. Things were out of control. Dappy knew he had to do something. He called the police. Dappy refused to be helped by the medical staff because he didn't want to look like a wimp. But he was in lots of pain and went to hospital afterwards so his nose could be treated."
A police spokesman confirms a young woman was questioned over a suspected assault, as well as being in possession of a Class B drug. It was not known if she will face charges as we went to press.
