Black Rob Sentenced To 7 Years

Damn, MTV just because Black Rob hasn’t had a real hit since Woah doesn’t mean a story like this  doesn’t deserve it’s own news item. I found this buried in the middle of yesterdays For The Record report on MTV.com:

Bad Boy Records rapper Black Rob (born Robert Ross) was sentenced to up to seven years in jail for grand larceny Thursday (March 30) in New York. Rob was picked up on a fugitive warrant February 24 after skipping out on an agreement to turn himself in January 24 to begin serving a two-to-six-year sentence on the charges. A spokesperson for the Manhattan district attorney’s office said the rapper was given the maximum sentence on the charge due to his flight. He will begin serving immediately…

I know it says ‘up to’ 7 years and he probably won’t do a day over 3 if he’s lucky, but that wouldn’t have made for nearly as sensational a headline now would it? Let this be a lesson to any up and coming rappers thinking about signing with P.Diddy: On Bad Boy you can drop two albums and blow up with a huge radio record, and still end up breaking into hotel rooms for loose change.
