On Thursday, Vybz Kartel prevailed on his appeal in London's Commonwealth court after lawyers for the 48-year-old said his conviction was unconstitutional because of bribery charges at his appeal, which occurred over a decade ago. They argued that the judge incorrectly handled charges that one juror paid 500,000 Jamaican dollars (£2,533) to fellow jurors in order to request not guilty verdicts. Adidja Palmer, the musician's real name, is one of Jamaica's most well-known musicians, and she has collaborated with artists including Jay-Z, Rihanna, Digga D, and Unknown T.
