Belizean lawmaker [Mosses] Jamal Michael Levi Barrow comes to his former New York home. He was once known as rapper Shyne. Now he is a conservative lawmaker and activist.
In the Summer, Barrow came to the United States as a diplomatic ambassador. He was there to strengthen relations between Belize and the United States. He also had an opportunity to return to his hometown of East Flatbush, Brooklyn, New York.
This was a moment…..the brotherhood of HIP HOP LEGENDS……

He came a long way. Back in 1999, he along with Sean "Puffy" Combs and then girlfriend Jennifer Lopez were in a New York nightclub when a scuffle broke out. Barrow would shoot at three patrons who threatened him and Combs. The incident left three injured and the rapper was arrest shortly after.
At the time, he was signed to Bad Boy Records and was preparing for his debut album release. He couldn't get to the release party. He was charged with attempted murder, assault and reckless endangerment. He was sentenced to 10 in the iron college. Since he was born in Belize and brought over as a child and committed a crime while in the United States, he failed to qualify for the DACA.
He would be issued a deportation to Belize and forbidden to return to the United States. Barrow never lived in the country during his first three years of his life. But since he had a family member who was a politician, the U.S. deported him back to the country. Due to his conviction at the time, Barrow would be banned entry to Canada, the United Kingdom and Australia.
Barrow reunited with Sean "Puffy" Combs during his stay in New York. |
He decided to convert his religion. He became an Orthodox Observant Jew. He would study the torah and state his religion as a guiding light to his life. During his time, he traveled to Europe and South America promoting criminal justice and rallying on behalf of incarcerated citizens.
Barrow would continue making rap albums and a few mixtapes before he gave it up.
He now sought to become a politician. He would run for office in Belize. He became a member of the United Democratic Party, a far-right political party opposed to the current prime minister Johnny Briceno. Barrow was granted entry into the United States under President Joe Biden.
He is now allowed to visit the United States and reunite with family members living in the country.
He also holds a diplomatic passport which allows him entry into countries he was previously denied entry into.
Now as a lawmaker, Barrow settled down and married a Belizan woman named Catherine and is considering possibly a run for prime minister.
Who knows what the lawmaker plans on doing in the future. I wish Jamal "Shyne" Barrow the best of luck in his future endeavors.
