UK Rapper Pa Salieu Sentenced To 33 Months In Prison

UK rapper Pa Salieu was sentenced to 33 months in prison.

The 25-year-old rapper was convicted of violent disorder and possessing a bottle as an offensive weapon, which stems from a 2018 incident. He was reportedly cleared of a second count of violent disorder.

Yikes..

Prosecutors say Salieu took part in a fight that happened outside of Coventry’s Club M after his friend Fidel “AP’ Glasgow was stabbed to death.

Salieu, who was 21 at the time, used a bottle and a tree branch to attack a 23-year-old man from another group, prosecutors said.

No one has been charged in the death of Glasgow, who was the grandson of the Special’s Neville Staple.

Salieu released his acclaimed debut Send Them To Coventry in 2020. He has worked with artists like FKA twigs, Backroad Gee, Mura Musa and others.

He was also nominated for the Rising Star Award at the 2021 BRITs.
