SMH
Posted by Bossip Staff
Lyfe Jennings is in a wee bit of trouble:
R&B bigshot Lyfe Jennings just got nabbed by Georgia police for allegedly shooting off a gun, taking cops on a chase in a Corvette, and refusing to take a DUI test. Smyrna, Ga. police tell us they were responding to a gunshots fired call when they spotted Jennings’ Vette hightailing it away from the scene. A chase ensued and Jennings eventually crashed. He was charged with felony weapon possession by a convicted felon. and he faces charges of attempting to elude, as well as discharging a firearm near a public highway and refusing to take the sobriety test. Lyfe — real name Chester — was in prison from 1992-2002 after being convicted of arson.
Poor thang.

WHO CARES ABOUT THIS *****, HIS CAREER WASN’T GOIN ANYWHERE ANYWAYS…
Bless his heart…I hope he comes out of this okay. He makes wonderful music.
Bossip, yall was a lil bit slow with this one. But i wish my boy didnt have to go down like that. His music was the Truth.
oh why, Chester, why…
I guess they got him now.
Arson is a jake crime….
I heard he is a lame in Toledo…
This dude was just waiting to go back to jail, well it looks lke he got his wish.
Good. Now I won’t have to hear any of his awful music anytime soon!!!
Oh man, I had no idea this cat was this gully, damn!! The real thugs are singers!! His latest joint is the cut though!! The old 30 is not the new 20!! Sorry J, i’m just the messenger!!
THAT ***** IS GOING TO BE TAKING IN THE ***** FOR “LYFE” *****, DAMN DUDE,
@ Nikki
What do you mean by ‘jake’ crime? Anyway that n!g did a 10 year bid behind that mess!
Hey Lyfe,
Must be nice?
NO MATER HOW MUCH MONEY OR SUCCESS THEY STILL DO WHAT THEY KNOW. AND HE SHOULD HAVE STAYED WITH HIS BABY MAMA INSTEAD OF CHASING ALL THOSE DIFFERENT WOMEN.
I’m sorry…his poetry is alright but his voice makes me sick. He riffs his voice way to much, it sounds like he’s crying all the time…
Dude is deep…but he’s a convicted felon…some habits just never die.
I like his work, too bad he couldn’t control himself for some reason.
noooooooooooooooooo! i love lyfe…….
Are they holding his hairline in a different cell?
damn lyfe, datz *****kd up..woulda thought he learned his lesson afta dat long ***** bid he did b4 he got on..he always talkd bout it..hopefully he’s not in for anotha 1..
sorry lyfe! his first album was the bizness then he just fell off….
Dodo dumb ***** *****!
NO LYFE NOOOOOOO!
SAY IT AIN’T SO!
What a DOUBLE DUMB*****!!
This is what I mean about black males who have everything they ever wanted and still can’t manage to get it right!!
shyhomie…
I mean let’s not get it confused no crime is cool but Arson? That is a weirdo’s crime…
…and he did 10?? See that proves my point…if you have to do ten at least let it be a crime of money of some sorts….
As Florida Evans put it after James died, “DAMN DAMN DAMN DAMN DAMN” !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dayum Chester….
“Must B Nice”
Lyfe just got added to my “N*ggas That Should Be Allowed to Wear Hats in Mugshots” list. Other entries include Ne-Yo, Plies, and LL. Wayne Brady’s a contender for next year…
Arson is a weirdo crime.
I knew MY folk would understand me…
COBB COUNTY IN THE HOUSE!!!
Public masturbation is another weirdo crime, along with arson.
I GUESS HE RAN OUT OF UNINTERESTING NARRATIONS FOR HIS NEXT ALBULM!!! LMAO @ MYSELF!!!
Hi 6….
Flashing and committing other n u d e acts…all weirdo crimes
I’m Speechless!!!
I heard prison is quite pleasant. There is this musty smell that seems to be a permanent fixture, a combo of funk and *****. You never saw a smile like the one on an inmate who just received a letter from his moms. Oh and the stories, there is always jail house drama going around. Now that lyfe is going back he will be able to serenade those men to sleep. Its going to be Good Times.
Nik: Still starin’ out the window thinking about yesterday… you know…
What a shame? I liked his music. Well,now he will have plenty of time to come up with new material. He is a little bit off is he is running around burnig shi* up, and shooting off guns.
@ Nikki and Re
Never heard it put like that!! Now I have! Thanks!!
HE SHOULDA CALLED HIMSELF 8 TO 10. MAYBE HE WOULDA CHILLED.
Staring at someone from across the street everyday when they get off the bus…weirdo crimes.
@Shyhomie
No prob
Who are you?
East coast West?
Why are you such a mystery?
I now know your HT and WT but not your age?
What size shoe do you wear?
Low fade w/ waves…naps?
I have the equivalent of 6 figgz…but in question form…
You know I could feel bad about a mf *****ing up bu this one I dont. See this **********er tried to throw the mother of his kids along with the kids out of a home he claims that he brought for them and when that didn’t work he called the electric co to have them to remove the meter because he claimed no one was living in the home, but the electric co refused because the bill was paid in full, and the bill had been being paid over the last year so they new someone was living there. SO THIS IS KARMA FOR HIS ROYAL ***** *****
shyhomie…
Anytime fam…
Stalking…mos def a weirdo and perv crime…
Huh? Oh no, Lyfe…I hope this isnt true. However that pic is JACKED UP… no wonder he changed his name, am I the only one gigglin’ at finding out his name is Chester??? HAAAAAAAA
Rubbing your own teats when a hot girl p*****es by…weirdo crimes…
B e s t I a l I t y…another weirdo crime…
u african amricans and jail.
***** for sure!!!!
Defacating on other people…another weirdo crime (regardless if the reciever likes it).
LOL @ Nikki and Re
Too funny!
This is upsetting. He was one of the few success stories from my hometown of Toledo. I hope they don’t lock him for Lyfe.
Ooh…I got one!!
Eating Pork…well at least it should be…but a real weirdo crime…
Fornicating with dolls…
Question?
If one drop of semen has more life in it than one drop of blood…why doesn’t Dracula suck d*ck instead?
NOOOOO not Lyfe dang I really like Lyfe thats too bad. I hope things work out for him but dang is it that serious?
@Shyhomie
(Feel free to contribute!)
@Nikki
Pork should be a crime
Blaming your weight on the baby you had 10 years ago…annoying crime….
We have to make better decisions.
Rocky…
I heard he is a lame…any truth? 216 Baby!!
Dracula only sucks it when it’s standing tall…because all the blood as migrated to that region…
Question of the day: Why is obescity called an epidemic?
We’re not stepping over obese people and swatting them away like locusts…
how sad. he talked that mess about 30 not being the new 20, yet he does something stupid like a 20 year old. now his ***** is going back to jail. SMH.
Vodka- $19.99
Motel- $54.99
Straps- $2.99
Finding out she swallows and loves it in the *****…PRICELESS.

Okay…now sans the riddles and volunteer some info…or ask me something…
This don’t make no damn sense. You can’t blame everything on the man.
Maybe he was racing to catch his hair-line before it left…. oops
naw i like lyfe…seems like a cool brotha.
Throwin’ down the gauntlet ma? No more games? Lol. Remember: patience is a virtue; good things come to those who wait…
@NU
I think dracula knows giving some brain may kill his @ss?
damn..SMH @ the “stick up kid”
shame.
Dang Lyfe!! WTF??? He must got that T.I. syndrome and thought he was going to get away but you got priors man. SMH. “I dont care what they told you, 30 IS NOT the new 20!” You cant run from the cops, you cant have a weapon if you’re a felon, and you cant be driving drunk. You’re the one whos stuck in never neverland!
this saddens me. he is smarter than this, at least i thought. i truly hope there is more to this that we don’t know. if not, he is going down.
Aww Lyfe! Damn Gina!(in my Martin Lawrence voice)
his name is chester — lmcao
LOL @ Chi-Town. Arson is a crazy man’s crime. I thought he was in jail for something else.
This is an abomination to be so talented but yet so dumb at the same time….
Chester your smarter than that come on
They neer said the corvette was recked, so I take it 5-0 whopped his black @$$…-well dont let them cuts and bruises fester Chester..
Never I mean
Oh hell no! Comeon Lyfe man. We only have few good RnB brotha’s out there and here he goes cuttin up. Wasn’t 10 years enough??
Even when your hustlin days are gone,
She’ll be by your side still holdin on,
Even when the 20s stop spinnin,
and all the gold-diggin women disappear,
She’ll still be here
That was my cut!
damn my boy they should have warned you about COBB COUNTY they dont like black people period point blank ***** somebody should have told me I might would have picked another county 2 move 2 cuz these *****es stay har*****ing…..F.Y.I C.O.B.B stands for (count on being busted)LOL……
He knew he was an ex-felon……what the ***** did he expect.
This man is a joke- i saw him on judge hatchett and he talked about mentoring youths to stay out of trouble- He is just a bonafide thug- can’t change his ways- loser- who cares about him any way
damn my boy they should have warned you about COBB COUNTY they dont like black people period point blank ***** somebody should have told me I might would have picked another county 2 move 2 cuz these *****es stay har*****ing…..F.Y.I C.O.B.B stands for (count on being busted)LOL……..
For realz…cause I live in Cobb County GA…they dont play that *****…that also where T.I. was…lol
SO MUCH FOR SECOND OR THIRD CHANCES AND REHABILITATION…….
something was always seedy about him and COMMON! they rub me the wrong way – speaking of which, is johnny gill still holed up in the west wing of EM’s house?
@mickey
He better be or Eddie will whip that @$$ with a house shoe!
Ahh Man, this means another CD with him talking through the entire album…Dang!!!!!
SMH…poor fella
DAMN..I RESPECTED DUDE FOR HIS POSITIVE MESSAGES,NOW HE GO DO THIS…*****..IDK..THERES TWO SIDES TO EVERY STORY,BUT THIS ***** WAS SPAZZIN.
Bet he was just aching for an excuse to go back to jail. Probably wasn’t doing much with his life anyway. His family must be proud. Must be nice.
I hope this means I don’t have to hear his irritating ***** voice again in LYFE!
I really like his music. I appreciate his creativity, sound, and uplifting messages.
I find it alarming that he did something so foolish. He had no business with a waeapon, and driving under the influence.
He has a gift and blew the opportunity of a lifetime. I don’t think the court will be so lenient this time with a convicted felon.
To all those hating on my ***** Lyfe I say this, FALL THE F*&# back! It’s such a crying shame how people believe everything they hear and listen allow the media to be their God. *****ody knows what this man has endured, or why he would behave this way. He has truly served his debt to society and (i’m sure) only wants to lead a life that is normal as possible, but the police are always looking for a way to make some celebrity an example. I bet *****ody even remembers him being on Judge Hatchett talking to that little boy about going to jail and getting his life straight. Why are people so quick to judge or even feel they have the entitlement to do so?! Real talk I feel horrible about the entire situation because this is yet another positive, family oriented, very intelligent and talented black man that has fallen victim to the har*****ment of our legal system. He may have not made the best decisions but who has??!! The soul community will not be the same without him, I really hope this is not the end of Lyfe Jennings and I will always be a fan. Leave the brotha alone dayum.
@ BrinaBaby,you say leave lyfe alone that ***** put his self out there. When your a celeb you cant pick and chose when the public can and cannot get in your buiss thats the price of fame$$$ so ***** him he shot the gun he ran and it is what it is so he should know better being a x-con…what ever happens its all on him.
@ BrinaBaby
Don’t blame the police for this. He was the one who refused a breathalyzer test, and had a weapon when he was a convicted felon.
He knew the risk that he was taking when he drove under the influence. He could have taken someone’s life.
Yes, there are alot of dirty rotten SOB’s on the police force, but that has nothing to do with Lyfe’s poor judgment that could have cost people their lives.
If he was innocent he would have stopped his car, and he would have took the breathalyzer test if he had nothing to hide.
Just because he makes good music does not excuse his behavior. If you do the crime you have to do the time.
he’s family oriented with hella kids out of wedlock (please)…Brinababy you trippin on a ***** s*****ing ***** children…
TRAPPER JOHN MD
brinababy seems to be blinded by stardom. You can hack up 2 people like O.j. simpson annd still have a fan base.
You can have sex with little girls on film like R KELLY and still sell out arenas.
Celebs are not perfect, they have issues too.
Celebs are far from perfect and we shouldn’t make excuses for them just because they make great music or movies. He set himself up *****ing around like that. Can’t fault the police for that, they’re just doing their job. No reason to take up for singers just because they put out some good music. Guess he won’t be doing that in a while.

To all those hating on my ***** Lyfe I say this, FALL THE F*&# back!(As If!) It’s such a crying shame how people believe everything they hear and listen allow the media to be their God. *****ody knows what this man has endured(He’s gonna endure gettin buttpumped, I know that!) or why he would behave this way(He’s stupid!). He has truly served his debt to society and (i’m sure) only wants to lead a life that is normal as possible, but the police are always looking for a way to make some celebrity an example(Yeah, I’m sure they made his convicted felon ***** shoot off his burner and run from the fuzz, right?). I bet *****ody even remembers him being on Judge Hatchett talking to that little boy about going to jail and getting his life straight(Don’t remember, don’t care). Why are people so quick to judge or even feel they have the entitlement to do so(Cause he might have killed an innocent bystander, for starters!)?! Real talk I feel horrible about the entire situation because this is yet another positive, family oriented, very intelligent and talented black man that has fallen victim to the har*****ment of our legal system(Sure he is….). He may have not made the best decisions but who has(All the *****s NOT in jail!)??!! The soul community will not be the same without him(And that will be an improvement!), I really hope this is not the end of Lyfe Jennings and I will always be a fan. Leave the brotha alone dayum.(Oh I will, but them *****s in “Gen-pop” won’t!)
@ Daywalker
LMAO!!
he knows better than that what’s wrong with him fool i feel bad he gone get lock down 4 lyfe
I guess they will have a cell for chester & o.j. maybe they can become homeboys of prison lyfe! They say they always go back…I guess he want to life..Another brotha got…
what the…
This is sad! This guy had a sound future and already went to jail. What’s wrong? Let me guess….its not his fault. Please! He didn’t learn his lesson, so now he will have to be held accountable. I don’t know all the facts to this story, but for face value, why the hell would one take police on chase. Didn’t he learn anything from OJ? Obviously not!
WTF is wrong with ppl today??? He jus got out of jail, made some good music actually worth listening to and then he do some stupid ***** like this??? Mayb he was running out of “REAL LIFE” stories for his CD
10 years for arson…life for evading police..some folks don’t know “how to be free!”
And the way Lfye talks himself up, you would have thought he served 10 years for attempted murder, accessory to murder or robbery…but this clown gets butsted for ARSON…WOWSERS! What did he burn down?
this is a shame. Another black man locked down in the system and people are saying “Good, I didn’t like his music/voice anyway.”
SMH
DUMB *****!!!!!!!!!
Bravo on those responses. Honestly, he did what he did and he deserves what anyone other person would get in this instance, agreed celebs are far from perfect, but that brings up the point that we are not perfect either. ***** stardom in this case trust I am not blinded (thanks though Ci Ci). In my opinion, that is a fair chance to explain his situation infront of a judge and let him or her decide what to do with it. We all have our personal views and feelings when it comes to celebrities, but have you ever been on the other side of that fence? Comparing his situation to O.J? WTF come better, please. You could love or hate Lyfe be it his music, style, or whatever other way you wanna angle it his talent has nothing to do with this, and isn’t the argument at hand. At the end of the day I truly believe that he has a right to explain his side of this before we get all judgmental (again no excuses for drunk driving). To the comments about his kids, some nerve…. What the ***** makes you so sure he is not a family man? Do you know the relationship he has with his kids? Trapper John MD…Are you *****in his baby moms and getting her side of it or something? That man LOVES his kids, point blank. Research before you say something and if you dont give a ***** as you say, dont say *****.
I totally agree with everything BrinaBaby said. I love this man to death (his music, his voice, his swagger, his message), yall *****’s just hatin’. Like BrinaBaby said, “Noone knows what this man has endured nor his relationship with his “TWO” boys (while Mr. Trapper John MD insists that he has “hella kids out of wedlock). Like BrinaBaby said do some research before you start rappin’ bout ***** you don’t know about!
