GUCCI MANE SENTENCED TO 12 MONTHS IN JAIL


Gucci Mane was sentenced to 12 months in jail on Thursday (November 12) for probation violation and taken away in handcuffs, according to his lawyer.

Mane pleaded guilty to assault in 2005 for attacking a nightclub promoter, and last September, he was sentenced to a year in jail for failing to fulfill his court-ordered 600 hours of community service in that case. He went to jail and served until March. Upon his release, Gucci went straight to the studio and recorded five songs.

The sentence is a blow to Gucci's career. The ATL rapper has an album coming out — The State vs. Radric Davis — on December 8 and is arguably at the height of his career; in terms of his sentence, he may be out of jail in six months.

WYDU BLOG LOVES THEY ALL COME DOWN



Shout out to Trav and if your a hip hop fan def check out Wake Your Daughters Up.

"Always good to hear new music from former Spotlight artist Mekka Don. The thing about Mekka's music, it's honest music, you ain't going to hear no bullshit. That's what the new song, "They All Come Down," is all about. An honest take on "celebrities" and their falls from grace. Not your typical hip hop subject matter and that's why I'll be bumping it. -Trav"
