Fetty Wap Hit With 6-Year Jail Sentence

From NBC New York, where you can read more on the story:

Rapper Fetty Wap was sentenced to six years in prison Wednesday for operating a large scale drug conspiracy that sold kilos of cocaine in New Jersey.

Fetty Wap, who hails from Paterson, New Jersey, pleaded guilty in August to a conspiracy drug charge, which carries a mandatory five-year prison sentence, admitting that he participated in a massive drug trafficking racket that moved drugs from the West Coast to Long Island.

Prosecutors alleged he distributed 25 kilograms s of cocaine in New Jersey after picking it up on Long Island.

During Wednesday’s sentencing, he apologized, saying: “I truly am sorry for any pain I caused. I hurt my community, people who look up to me. My family and myself.”

His attorneys said he was simply trying to support his family when his music income dried up during the pandemic lockdown. That led him to make the worst mistake of his life, his lawyer said.

Lil Durk has called Gunna “a rat” for allegedly snitching on Young Thug.

On Monday (May 22), the Chicago native sat down with DJ Akademiks to promote his new album, Almost Healed. While speaking with the internet personality, the host asked Durkio about his thoughts on snitches, with the rapper not biting his tongue on the subject.

“If you ever told, if you ever tell, I hate you,” Durk said. “Like, with a passion. I don’t sit up here and play games, man. [Gunna] told, You should have went in there and kept your mouth closed.”

“I never unfollowed him [on IG],” the “All My Life” entertainer continued. “I don’t know why I didn’t. I just don’t take Instagram and all that type sh*t serious. But if you a rat, you a rat. If you rewind the clip a little bit, I looked into the camera, and I told you, if you a rat, I f**king hate you. Because I love Thug.”

Atlanta Cop Sentenced For Taking Part In Robbery Of Bankroll Freddie
