Rapper Blueface has been sentenced to four years in prison.
The sentence was handed down on Friday and stems from a probation violation related to assault charges he received in 2021 after an altercation with a security guard.
The news was first revealed by Blueface’s father, who posted an emotional Instagram story while driving back from the court hearing. Wack100, the rapper’s manager, also confirmed the sentence but remains optimistic about Blueface’s release. According to Wack100, Blueface could be back home in less than a year. “He got four years, 400-something days off. Comes down to three years, he go to state… he’ll be home in nine to 10 months,” Wack100 shared.
This latest legal issue isn’t Blueface’s first run-in with the law. Earlier this year, he turned himself in after violating his probation, and he was already dealing with a warrant for his arrest in Las Vegas. The rapper was previously sentenced to probation for up to three years with a suspended prison sentence of two to five years for his involvement in a strip club shooting. His sentencing had been postponed due to the judge’s surgery.
In related news, Blueface’s ex-girlfriend, Chrisean Rock, also found herself in legal trouble recently, landing in jail on drug charges. Blueface’s mother, Karlissa Saffold, took to Instagram earlier this year, pleading, “Can you please get my grandson’s parents out of jail?”
