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.

  • Bella

    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.

  • P

    I like his work, too bad he couldn’t control himself for some reason.

  • WhatsYoursIsMine-Voting Early and I can’t wait!!!!!

    Arson is a weirdo crime.

  • http://www.gravatar.com Re (MADVILLIANY…I heart DangerDoom)

    Public masturbation is another weirdo crime, along with arson.

  • Seek the light beyond the shadows

    I heard prison is quite pleasant. There is this musty smell that seems to be a permanent fixture, a combo of funk and ass. 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.

  • 6 Figgaz

    Nik: Still starin’ out the window thinking about yesterday… you know…

  • Black Beauty

    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.

  • shyhomie

    @ Nikki and Re

  • keysha

    Defacating on other people…another weirdo crime (regardless if the reciever likes it).

  • shyhomie

    LOL @ Nikki and Re

    Too funny!

  • Rocky

    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.

  • Trishaann

    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!

  • megan

    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.

  • Kesha: (I BLEED BLACK N GOLD)

  • DA TRUFF!!! The Truth Will Set You Free!!!

    SMH…poor fella

  • Darkesthourglass

    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.

  • Somer

    I hope this means I don’t have to hear his irritating ass voice again in LYFE!

  • CiCi

    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.

  • CiCi

    @ 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.

    brinababy seems to be blinded by stardom. You can hack up 2 people like O.j. simpson annd still have a fan base.

  • CiCi

    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.

  • tiff

    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…

  • Hmm… Makes You Wonder

    what the…

  • Razzell Dazzell

    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!

  • Teeza

    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?

  • jay

    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

  • MS. FEE

    DUMB ASS!!!!!!!!!

  • Granny “B”

    I totally agree with everything BrinaBaby said. I love this man to death (his music, his voice, his swagger, his message), yall Nigga’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 shit you don’t know about!
