Gucci Mane Sentenced To Serve 1 Year in Prison!

Atlanta rapper Gucci Mane was sentenced to a year in prison today (November 12) for violating the terms of his probation.

The rapper will begin serving his sentence immediately and could be released in as little as six months, according to MTV.com.

The news comes as Gucci Mane was promoting his album, ironically titled The State Vs. Radric Davis, on December 8.

The album features a Gucci along side a number of high profile artists, including Lil Wayne, Cam’ron, Soulja Boy, OJ Da Juiceman, Waka Flocka, Bun B., E-40, Trina, Nicki Minaj, Keyshia Cole, Plies, Rick Ross and numerous others.

Gucci Mane’s legal problems forced him to cancel a series of controversial college appearances at Florida A&M and North Carolina A&T last month.

Students on both campuses protested Gucci Mane’s appearance because of his controversial lyrics and alleged gang ties.

A murder charge against Gucci Mane was dropped in January 2006, after he shot a man during a botched robbery attempt in an Atlanta-area residence.

He also served time for assaulting a local nightclub promoter named Tyrone Tucker with a pool cue.

Chris Brown Officially Sentenced To Serve 5 Years Probation + No More Rihanna....

LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) — Pop singer Chris Brown was sentenced Tuesday to serve five years probation and more than 1,400 hours in “labor-oriented service” for assaulting his pop star girlfriend, Rihanna.

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Patricia Schnegg said in the sentencing she wants to see Brown conduct “actual physical labor, as opposed to some type of community service.”

The sentencing was delayed earlier this month because documents detailing Brown’s proposed community service plan in Virginia, where he maintains a legal residence and wants to serve his sentence, had not arrived in time for Schnegg to review them.

Brown’s probation will be overseen by the state of California, the judge said.

He must also complete domestic violence counseling.
