Tip got off easy. Remy Ma wasn’t so lucky.
According to the International Herald Tribune, Remy Ma left the Manhattan courtroom today in tears, having been convicted of assault, weapon possession, and attempted coercion. She may face anywhere from 10 to 25 years. We’ll know the verdict on April 23.
She quietly wiped away tears as the verdict was read, then wailed loudly and sobbed openly after she was outside the courtroom. Many of her supporters also cried.
She should’ve hollered at T.I.’s lawyers.

Looks like T.I.’s lawyers are sketching out a plea deal that will limit his bid to 1 year.
From the Associated Press:
Rapper T.I. was expected to plead guilty Thursday to federal weapons charges and will face prison time, according to two people familiar with his case.
The 27-year-old singer, whose real name is Clifford Harris, was expected to be sentenced to 1,500 hours of community service talking to youth groups around the country, followed by about 12 months in prison, according to two people familiar with the negotiations who spoke on condition of anonymity because the plea deal had not been finalized yet Thursday morning.
If this goes through, those lawyers definitely deserve a raise and some hookers.
Update:
Tip is expected to enter the plea at 1:30 p.m. Quick, get those “Free T.I.” t-shirts ready.

::Little Vic feat Kool G Rap - Caked Up
Little Vic is a new MC out of NY, but he reminds me of Elzhi for some reason. His style is fresh, his lyrics raw and intricate. “Caked Up” is taken from Vic’s impressive debut, Each Dawn I Die, due sometime this month. I know some will hesitate to check the record unless a big name is on board, so I’ll go ahead and add that DJ Premier produced one track on the CD.
Here’s Killa Kyleon, one of Slim Thugg’s weed carriers, desecrating the “Roc Boys” beat. Someone should’ve told him that “Roc Boys” freestyles are so 2005.
