2012: New Orleans rappper Baby Gangsta, also known as B.G., was
sentenced to 14 years in federal prison for gun possession and
witness tampering on July 18, 2012.
B.G., real
name Christopher Dorsey, is one of the original members of Cash Money’s Hot Boys. Starting off early with Lil Wayne, Turk
and Juvenile, B.G. had a hand in creating early street hits like “Neighborhood
Superstars,” “Get It How U Live,” “Ride or Die” and more. B.G. dropped his solo
debut, Chopper City in the Ghetto, in 1999. B.G. later resigned from
Cash Money Records in 2001 to create his own label, Chopper City Records.
Before his
2012 sentencing, B. Gizzle pled guilty to being a felon in possession of a
firearm during a 2009 traffic stop in eastern New Orleans. Police found three
guns in total and the car itself was stolen from a rental car parking lot. B.G.
obstructed justice by pushing one of his two associates to falsely claim
ownership of the gun but later confessed to ownership.
XXL checked in with B.G. in January of 2016 for a Doin’ Lines feature. Houston rapper Z-Ro
is determined to keep B.G.’s name alive in the rap game and announced in May
2016 that he and B.G. plan to drop a joint album.
