Andrew Holness re-elected for historic third term as Prime Minister
Jamaican Prime Minister Andrew Holness, 53, has won a rare third term in office after his Labour Party sailed to victory in Monday’s election.
The Caribbean nation’s electoral commission said the Labour Party had won 34 seats, beating the opposition People’s National Party (PNP), which secured 29 seats, according to preliminary figures.
The candidate for the PNP, Mark Golding, has conceded defeat.
Holness campaigned on a promise to lower the income tax rate from 25% to 15%, while Golding had said he would raise the income tax threshold.
The incumbent was also credited by many voters for bringing down the number of homicides in the country after the murder rate fell to its lowest in 25 years in the first quarter of 2025, according to official figures.
While there was some criticism of the measures used to bring about the drop in crime – such as states of emergency being declared in some regions – the increased sense of safety seems to have helped propel Holness to another term.
But the economy was at the centre of the election campaign with the Labour Party pointing to the low unemployment rate of 3.3% as one of its achievements in office.
The main opposition party, the PNP, accused the government of squandering money, citing the high cost of second-hand school buses it had purchased.
It also raised questions about the integrity of Prime Minister Holness, citing a report which had questioned his income and assets declaration.
Holness denied any wrongdoing and accused the PNP of using the report as a “distraction” because, he said, the government’s record was such that there was little the opposition could criticise.
While turnout was low at 39.5%, an observer mission sent by the Organization of American States (OAS) praised Jamaican voters for being “calm and orderly with a sense of civic maturity and pride”.
Holness thanked voters for “this historic third term” and for their “trust, your faith and your belief in the vision of a stronger, safer, more prosperous Jamaica”.
Google’s stock reaches record high as government retreats and AI competitors play a role
Alphabet’s shares surged to a record high Thursday, after U.S. regulators stepped back from a proposed set of new restrictions on large AI platforms — a decision that unexpectedly strengthened the hand of Google’s parent company. But while regulatory relief is one factor, analysts say the real driver behind Google’s market-breaking rally lies in the success of its competitors. In fact, that’s what the judge in Google’s antitrust case said, too.
In a 230-page ruling, District Court Judge Amit Mehta wrote that Google can no longer enter into exclusive distribution deals around making its search engine or its Gemini AI technology into a default option, and that it must share some search data with competitors, but stopped short of requiring it to spin off key assets, especially its Chrome web browser.
Mehta wrote that the emergence of generative AI has “changed the course of this case,” which began in 2020, several years before the mainstream release of ChatGPT fundamentally changed the tech sector. “The money flowing into this space, and how quickly it has arrived, is astonishing,” he wrote.
Alphabet’s stock closed up 8% Thursday at $231.10, its highest level ever.
Surprise on Wall Street
What surprised many on Wall Street was how much Google appears to benefit indirectly from the rapid progress of its rivals. Microsoft, OpenAI, and Anthropic have spent billions elevating user expectations in AI-powered search, work software, and creative tools. Each breakthrough has ignited wider adoption of AI across industries — demand that has spilled over into Google’s own ecosystem of services and cloud infrastructure.
Bank of America Research wrote that the ruling potentially cleared one of the two big stock “overhangs,” saying its “top takeaway is the judgment preserves Google’s ability to maintain its search distribution position.” The other overhang, competitive uncertainty for search query volumes, remains, although BofA’s thesis that AI is actually expanding the search market could also become a “potential net positive for Google.” The bank said it has noted an improving position for Google’s AI and search products year-to-date despite strong growth at emerging Gen-AI competitors.
To that point, after seeming to lag in the “AI race,” Google has shifted, embedding its Gemini model across Search, Docs, and Pixel devices. Investors once worried that AI chatbots could cannibalize Google’s core search advertising. But Google has released data showing ad engagement holding steady, and that AI-generated answer summaries actually drove more time spent inside the Google ecosystem.

Navigating the Ethics of Music Catalog Deals: When Rebellion Poses a Threat
MBW Views is a series of exclusive op/eds from eminent music industry people… with something to say. The following op/ed comes from Claire Hoffman, an associate at Michelman & Robinson, LLP, a national law firm headquartered in Los Angeles, with additional offices in Irvine, San Francisco, Dallas, Houston, Chicago and New York City. Hoffman specializes in corporate transactions in the entertainment industry.
In the summer of 1985, Tipper Gore and the Parents Music Resource Center held a Senate hearing to protest rising deviance in popular music. Gore railed against Prince, Madonna, and other headlining acts she deemed Trojan Horses, deceiving parents into buying music for their children that promoted drugs, violence, sex, and the occult.
By fall, the Recording Industry Association of America had agreed to place the now-infamous black-and-white “Parental Advisory: Explicit Content” sticker on selected releases deemed too distasteful. To preserve their “family-friendly” reputations, retail giants like Walmart refused to sell these “explicit” albums, opting instead to carry only “clean,” censored versions.
But what was meant as a scarlet letter quickly became a badge of honor. When the “Tipper Sticker” appeared on an album, it signaled subversion and cultural cachet. In his 1989 song “Freedom of Speech,” Ice-T reveled, “Hey, PMRC…The sticker on the record is what makes ’em sell gold…The more you try to suppress us, the larger we get.” Gore and the PMRC had forgotten the golden rule of the music industry: rebellion sells.
The Price of Rebellion in the Streaming Era
Parental Advisory warnings may have faded in relevance during the streaming era, but the story underscores a persistent tension in the music business: controversy drives sales — but it can also sink value. In the last decade, that tension has played out in the careers of some of the industry’s biggest names.
Sean “Diddy” Combs saw his streaming numbers spike, even as he faced lawsuits and a federal raid. After being shunned from radio playlists for using a racial slur, Morgan Wallen rebounded to score multiple No.1 hits. Kanye West lost a billion-dollar brand partnership after a string of antisemitic remarks — but still commands a massive audience and accompanying streams.
For music investors, this paradox represents a risk — one not easily managed. After all, artists do not have a fiduciary duty to maximize investor value. Left unchecked, misbehavior by musicians can result in a catalog being pulled from the radio, a Twitter campaign tanking streams, or an arrest postponing tour dates indefinitely.
In such cases, the investor’s only protection lies in the purchase agreement. For this reason, many have turned to morals and misconduct clauses.
Two Paths to Protection
Morals clauses are forward-looking. If an artist engages in behavior specified as harmful, the buyer may take action. Remedies can include monetary damages or termination of the contract and release from future obligations. In practice, this clause is more common when the deal includes an ongoing business relationship between artist and buyer.
By contrast, a misconduct clause is narrower and backward-looking. It addresses liabilities existing at the time of the deal, not future conduct. Sellers may be required to disclose pending claims or past settlements involving harassment or assault — or confirm that none exist. If undisclosed issues surface after closing, the buyer may be entitled to compensation or termination of the agreement.
When Bad Behavior Is the Brand
Even with these tools, quantifying and mitigating this risk remains a persistent source of friction between artists and investors.
As buyer’s counsel, when we propose a morals or misconduct clause, the pushback often echoes the same refrain: “He’s a rockstar.” The implication? Rebellion isn’t misconduct — it’s the brand. Sex, drugs, and chaos aren’t risks; they are the product.
Artist representatives argue that such provisions penalize the very qualities that drive catalog value. They also raise concerns about scope: that a vaguely worded clause could be triggered by an unproven allegation, an internet rumor, or a bad-faith claim from a publicity seeker. And in a business built on myth-making, they’re not wrong to be cautious.
Cancel Culture Meets Catalog Value
This debate has only intensified in the age of “cancel culture.” Sometimes public outrage delivers long-overdue accountability. Other times, it’s little more than a fleeting popularity contest.
For catalog investors, the distinction matters. Some scandals spark curiosity streams or galvanize fan loyalty. Others make music virtually unlicensable. Predicting which way it will go is guesswork.
And even when misconduct is clear, quantifying its commercial impact remains difficult. Morgan Wallen’s 2021 use of a racial slur triggered radio blacklists and widespread backlash. But months later, his album stayed at No.1 for eleven straight weeks. As of this writing, two of his songs sit in the Billboard Hot 100’s top 10. Yes, his conduct caused reputational harm — but not a measurable decline in core revenue.
Contrast that with R. Kelly. Allegations against him had circulated since the 1990s, yet his catalog remained largely untouched for decades. It wasn’t until a documentary exposé reignited public outrage that streaming platforms removed his music from curated playlists and licensing deals collapsed. Streams dipped, and his catalog became radioactive.
What’s forgivable today can be unforgivable tomorrow. The market moves with the culture — not the contract.
Balancing Edge and Exposure
The challenge isn’t whether to include misconduct provisions in catalog acquisitions — it’s how to draft them to reflect the tension between artistry and asset value. A few approaches help:
- Tie to Material Impact. Limit triggers to events that demonstrably affect the assets — such as takedowns by streaming platforms, lost licensing opportunities, or measurable revenue decline.
- Set a Time Horizon. Focus on misconduct within a defined period to avoid indefinite reach while still surfacing relevant risks.
- Disclosure Warranties. Require sellers to disclose past allegations, claims, or settlements. Known risks can be priced. Hidden risks cannot be managed.
These strategies reframe morals and misconduct clauses away from abstract morality and toward commercial impact.
Investing in Culture, Investing in Risk
The music business has always thrived on risk — on the push and pull between rebellion and commercial appeal. As catalogs become billion-dollar assets, that risk carries larger consequences. For investors, the goal isn’t to sanitize the art or dull its edge. It’s to write deals that anticipate volatility and guard against scandals that can wipe out value overnight.
Morals and misconduct clauses aren’t about judging artists. They are tools for managing risk in a market where culture moves faster than contracts. The challenge is to draft with clarity — preserving the freedom that fuels creativity while protecting the investment in a business where popularity, morality, and profit are always in flux.Music Business Worldwide

President Irfaan Ali of Guyana secures second term in general election
Guyanese President Irfaan Ali has claimed a second five-year term in office, even as official final results from Monday’s general election are yet to be published.
Ali’s People’s Progressive Party (PPP) secured at least 242,000 votes in the poll, claiming majorities in eight of the 10 districts in the South American country, according to Reuters news agency.
We Invest in Nationhood (WIN), a new political party founded just three months ago, came in second with around 109,000 votes.
Ali, 45, campaigned on a pledge to use the country’s vast oil reserves, discovered in 2019, to improve infrastructure and reduce poverty, while navigating territorial tensions with neighbour Venezuela.
It is not yet clear how many seats each party will have in the 65-member parliament, but the current vice-president, Bharrat Jagdeo, told local media that the PPP would have a “bigger majority” than at the last election in 2020.
Despite a lower turnout than at the last election, the PPP appeared to have increased its vote share – while the long-term opposition A Partnership for National Unity trailed in third.
Much of this election centred on how parties would manage revenues from massive oil reserves discovered by the oil giant ExxonMobil in 2019.
Since 2019, the company says it has found billions of barrels’ worth of oil in Guyanese waters and territory – causing the state budget to quadruple.
With a population of around 800,000, Guyana now has one of the highest levels of proven crude oil reserves per capita in the world – and is one of the region’s fastest-growing economies.
But opposition parties say there is unfair distribution of oil earnings to groups connected to the PPP, accusations the ruling party denies.
Businessman Azruddin Mohamed, leader of the WIN party, alleged voting irregularities in Monday’s election, even as he celebrated the party having “shaken the pillars of Guyana’s political establishment”.
Observers from the Organization of American States were deployed to Guyana for the election and have not yet reported any instances of electoral fraud.
The election came the day after Guyanese police said that a boat carrying election officials and ballot boxes was “shot at from the Venezuelan shore” – in the contested Essequibo region.
Venezuela denied being behind the incident – which came as the two countries are locked in a dispute over competing claims to the oil-rich region.
Ranking the 2025 Men’s NCAA Recruiting Classes: Numbers 13-16
By Sam Blacker on SwimSwam
With the NCAA season around the corner, many people are wondering how their favorite team will do this season, and how teams did in their recruiting. This is the first year that we will not see 5th-year athletes at the NCAA Championships, though there are a few redshirt athletes hanging around, which means the incoming freshmen have more opportunity to make an impact than in years past.
As always, we are ranking the 2025 Division I men’s recruiting classes for this season. We have already posted the honorable mentions, so we are getting started with the ranked teams, where we will be starting at #16 and working our way down to #1. This article will cover #16 to #13.

- Individual Recruit Rankings: Boys Final Standings
A few important notes on our rankings:
- The rankings listed are based on our Class of 2025 Re-Rank. “HM” refers to our honorable mentions and “BOTR” refers to our Best of the Rest section for top-tier recruits.
- Like most of our rankings, these placements are subjective. We base our team ranks on a number of factors: prospects’ incoming times are by far the main factor, but we also consider potential upside in the class, class size, relay impact, and team needs. Greater weight is placed on known success in short course yards, so foreign swimmers are slightly devalued based on the difficulty in converting long course times to short course production.
- Transfers are included, though they are weighed less than recruits who arrive with four seasons of eligibility.
- For the full list of all verbally committed athletes, click here. A big thank you to SwimSwam’s own Anne Lepesant for compiling that index – without it, rankings like these would be far less comprehensive.
- Some teams had not released a finalized 2025-26 team roster at the time these articles were published, meaning it’s possible we missed some names. Let us know in the comments below.

Best NCAA Swimming and Diving Recruiting Classes: Men’s Class of 2025
#16 Michigan Wolverines
- SwimSwam Ranked Recruits: BOTR Alex Thiesing (KY- free)
- The “Rest”: Luka Mladenovic (Austria – breast/IM), Antoine Sauve (Canada – free), Alexey Glivinskiy (Israel – free/IM), Boldizsar Magda (Hungary – free/back/fly), Antoine Destang (MI – free/fly), Will Siegel (NY – free)
The Wolverines’ incoming group has a heavy international flavor as they look to build on their 2nd-place finish at Big Tens last year. Austria’s Luka Mladenovic looks the most important of the incoming swimmers, as he fills a slight hole on breaststroke and should make the medley relays even more dangerous next year. He has long course bests of 26.72 in the 50, 59.97 in the 100 and 2:10.08 in the 200, all set this season, and split 59.08 on Austria’s medley relay this summer. His converted times are 51.25 in the 100 and 1:51.70, enough to make the ‘B’ finals at NCAAs last year, and he should be an upgrade on Ozan Kalafat for the relays.
Antoine Sauve has had a breakout year, going 48.41 in the 100 free and 1:46.39 in the 200 free at Canadian Trials. Those convert to rapid times of 41.79 and 1:32.31, both of which would have qualified for NCAAs last year, and would make him the prime replacement for Gal Cohen Groumi on Michigan’s relays. Alexey Glivinskiy is also a fantastic freestyler, with similar bests of 48.43/1:47.10, and they should make for a mean 1-2 punch at the conference level and on the 400 and 800 free relays. Glivinskiy also brings an elite 200 IM, with his 1:59.00 from the world championships converting to a 1:42.00, good enough for 6th at least season’s Big Tens. Boldizsár Magda, a versatile sprint free/fly/back swimmer out of Hungary who has split 48.3 on the 100 free before, could be another great addition.
Those four are joined by BOTR recruit Alex Thiesing, Antoine Destang, and Will Siegel, all three-distance freestyle specialists, while Destang brings some 100 fly chops. Thiesing is20.25/43.55/1:34.76 in the sprint freestyles, but set long course bests of 23.25/49.75/1:49.99 to indicate that he could be in for a bit of a breakout this fall. If their international recruits adapt quickly, Michigan brings in a class here that could cement their status as the main challengers to Indiana in the Big Ten.
#15 Harvard Crimson
- SwimSwam Ranked Recruits: #10 William Mulgrew (MA – free)
- The “Rest”: Will Browne (VA – free/fly), Ognjen Pilipovic (Serbia), Maro Miknic (Croatia), Vito Rados (Croatia), Mark Iltsisin (Estonia), Pablo Martinez Palop(Spain), Chase Shipp (CA – diving), Rem Turatbekov (VA – diving)
Harvard is headlined by William Mulgrew, a distance freestyler who recently competed for Team USA at the World Junior Championships and holds a best in the mile that would have qualified for NCAAs this March. He is joined, similarly to Michigan above, by a big group of international swimmers.
Mulgrew was the #10 recruit on our 2025 class rankings thanks to his prowess in the mile, where he holds a best of 14:48.26. That is half a second under the invite time for last year’s NCAAs, and would have been 2nd at last year’s Ivy League championships, behind Ivy League Record holder Noah Millard. Mulgrew would also have placed in the top eight of both the 500 and 100 free, giving Harvard some serious points in events that they had only one swimmer make the top ten in last year, the now-graduated Shane Washart. While he is the big domestic get, equally important in terms of the conference title could be Will Browne, a sprint freestyle specialist from Virginia with bests of 19.95 in the 50 free and 43.32 in the 100. He goes up to 1:36.15 in the 200, and adds some nifty 47.57 speed in the 100 fly and a 1:47.72 in the 200 IM.
Mulgrew has been on a tear in long course, chopping seven seconds from his 1500 time (15:05.97) and six on the 800 (7:51.99), and it is in that pool that the majority of the Crimson’s incomings have proven themselves. They bring in five international recruits, with a focus on freestyle. Spain’s Pablo Martinez should be a great training partner for Mulgrew and is 15:22 in the 1500, while Estonia’s Mark Iltsisin is 8:12.97 in the 800 and 3:57.74 in the 400, along with a 4:30 400 IM. Ognjen Pilipovic and Maro Miknic are both free fly specialists, and Miknic could be the best of the lot with his time of 52.49 in the 100 fly, converting to a 45.91 that would have placed 4th at Ivies last year, along with 22.64/50.27 freestyle speed. Vito Rados shores up the breaststroke group with bests of 1:02.51 in the 100 and 2:18.80 in the 200.
A pair of divers completes this class, and both USA National teamer Chase Shipp and Kyrgyzstani diver Rem Turatbekov, who placed in the top three at the Virginia State championships the last two years, look like good recruits who should pick up some points at the conference level.
Harvard, which fell to second at Ivies last year as it had their seven-year winning streak snapped by Princeton, has loaded up this year. They may not quite reclaim their conference crown, but it certainly won’t be due to their incoming class if they don’t. Mulgrew’s ability to compete on the national level, and the shot in the arm their relays will get make this a well-rounded and impactful recruiting class from the Crimson.
#14 U.S. Naval Academy Midshipmen
- SwimSwam Ranked Recruits: #17 Xavier Sohovich (FL – free), BOTR Chase Maier (IL – free) , BOTR Preston Kessler (PA – free)
- The “Rest”: Jaiden Sreenivasan (WA – free/IM), Zach Arnold (NY – free/IM), Joshua Lopez (MD – free/fly), Luke Lamb (PA – free/back), Alex Park (AL – fly), Charlie Greenwood (VA – fly/IM), Kyle Dowe (AZ – IM), Andrejs Brooks (MD – fly), Kai Funaro (TX – free), Sebastien de Fabrique (CA – free), Martin Perecinsky (Ohio State transfer – free/back)
Navy bring in a big class featuring three high-quality recruits in Xavier Sohovich, Preston Kessler and Chase Maier, as they look to reclaim their Patriot League title from Army. Sohovich soared up into the top-20 recruits this year after some huge drops across the 100/200/500 freestyles, and Kessler (sprint free) and Maier (distance free) give them stars across the whole distance range.
Those three would all have won a Patriot League title with their best times. Sohovich comes in with times in the 200 free (1:34.66) and 500 free (4:15.46) that would have won those events last year, along with a top-three time in the 100 (43.68), while Kessler, a quintessential 50/100 freestyler, would have won the 100 (43.28) and placed 4th in the 50 (19.82). Both should slot straight onto the relays as well – Sohovich has split 19.7/42.9/1:33.9 . Maier brings 44.08/1:35.91/4:17.60/15:09.69 speed across freestyle, already fast enough to win both the 500 and 1650 free at conference level, and quick enough to be part of Navy’s 400 and 800 free relays. Those three alone would be a game-changing class, but they are joined by Jaiden Sreenivasan (free/IM), Joshua Lopez (free/fly), Luke Lamb (free/back), Charlie Greenwood (fly/IM) and Andrejs Brooks (fly), who would all have made conference ‘A’ finals last year.
Alex Park (fly), Kai Funaro (free), and Kyle Dowe (IM) add even more depth around them, and this is a class to contend with. They may not be in the same place to make an impact on the national stage as some of the Power Four classes will, but they add a huge amount of depth, a potential NCAA qualifier in Sohovich, and some likely conference champions. Army’s reign at the top of the conference looks like it will be a short one.
Navy also adds Slovakian Martin Perecinsky as a transfer from Ohio State, who comes in with three years of eligibility. Last season as a freshman, he set best times in the 200 free (1:35.83) and 500 free (4:19.82) at the Big Ten Championships, placing 21st in both, and he then set a new PB of 1:42.22 in the 200 back at the CSCAA National Invitational Championships. He’ll be a contender for a Patriot League title right away in both freestyle events and a podium threat in the 200 back, where teammate Ben Irwin will be the big favorite to repeat after he won last year as a freshman in 1:40.04.
#13 Princeton Tigers
- SwimSwam Ranked Recruits: BOTR Alex Townsend (NC – fly/IM), BOTR Jiarui Xue (MN – free/IM), BOTR John Rusnock (CT – fly/IM), BOTR Keian Lam (IL – breast/IM), #7 Chase Sorosky (AZ – diving)
- The “Rest”: Jack Haley (CT – fly/IM), Jake Tarara (IN – free), Cole Kawaja (CA – free), Oliver Rowe (TX – free/fly), Luka Martinovic (Croatia – diving)
Princeton, one year on from snatching the Ivy League crown from Harvard, look primed to defend this year after bringing in a huge class. They graduated just 195.5 of their 1330 conference points from last season, and bring in multiple freshmen already in scoring range at Ivies.
They are headlined by no fewer than four BOTR recruits, all of whom bring IM prowess in addition to their stroke specialism. Alex Townsend may well be the best of those four, with 46.7/1:45.3 speed on fly alongside a 1:45.94 200 IM, but is matched almost exactly by John Rusnock, who is also 1:45.94 in the 200 IM as well as 47.4/1:45.3 on fly. Both would have made the ‘B’ final in the 200 IM and 200 fly last year at the Ivy League Championships, and Townsend would have been an ‘A’ finalist in the 100 fly to boot. However, the incoming freshman who would have scored highest at those championships was distance freestyler Jiarui Xue, who would have taken home 60+ points across the 500, 1000 and 1650 free. He has best times of 4:20.54 in the 500, 9:05.99 in the 1000 and 15:06.71 in the mile.
Keian Lam would also be a three-event scorer across breaststroke and IM, and has bests of 53.70/1:57.79 on breaststroke that rank 3rd and 2nd on the team, respectively. Oliver Rowe will shore up the mid-distance freestyle and butterfly groups, as will Jack Haley, who also adds 1:48/3:51 IM speed. Jake Tarara is 20.0/43.9 on the 50/100 free, and should be fighting for a relay spot.
The Tigers also bring in a pair of elite divers, just in case the swimmers alone were somehow not enough. Chase Sorosky was the #7 recruit in our diving rankings, and they also bring in 2024 World Junior bronze medalist Luka Martinovic, who placed 16th on the 3-meter at senior worlds in Singapore this year. Sorosky is the Arizona state record holder in the 1-meter event, demolishing the old mark by over 100 points, and is a 10-time Junior National finalist.
Their big loss from last season was Tyler Hong, who made the ‘A’ final in the 100/200 back and 200 IM. They don’t bring in a backstroker to replace him, but have strengthened in just about every other area. They may still be a work in progress at the NCAA level, but this is a high-quality group that should make a splash at the conference level, and improve the Tigers’ hopes of scoring on the big stage.
