Chris "B.G." Dorsey Gets A Commuted Sentence!

B.G. may be heading home.

Former New Orleans rapper Christopher "B.G." Dorsey is rumored to be leaving federal time out in less than a month. It appears that 14 year sentence is commuted to less than 12 years.

Bryan "Baby" Williams, known as Birdman, the CEO of Cash Money Records and Rich Gang said that B.G. will be released within a few weeks. After numerous denials, it appears that he will get a conditional release.

In July 2012, B.G. was sentenced to 14 years behind bars after pleading guilty to firearm possession. He also pleaded guilty to obstructing justice and convincing an associate to claim ownership of the gun.

In September, U.S. District Judge Susie Morgan rejected a motion filed by another inmate on B.G.’s behalf. The motion requested for the judge to have the rapper’s 14-year sentence reduced.

B.G. first requested an early release in February after the Bureau of Prisons system went into lockdown due to violence in USP Beaumont. During that time, the rapper wrote that “murder and mayhem” were normal incidents at the federal facility where he was located. He added that the public had no idea what was really going on behind prison walls. In addition, he claimed his health issues make him more prone to catching COVID-19.

In June, B.G filed another motion, which was supported by letters from Birdman, Ronald "Slim" Williams, Wendy Day and Gary Payton Jr., to be released early. Unfortunately, Judge Morgan denied that motion as well.

B.G. got his start in hip-hop when he was 14 years old. He and Lil Wayne, then 11 signed to Cash Money under the group, The B.G.z. 

The two would dissolve the group to join local rapper Juvenile, Turk and Lil Derrick (Bullet Proof) to become the Hot Boys. The album sold well in the South but what took Cash Money to its greatness was Juvenile's 400 Degrees. 

B.G. went on to release five labels with the label. His debut Chopper City was released in 1996 when he was 15 years old. 

The major label debut album Chopper City in the Ghetto went platinum. 

B.G. had left Cash Money citing disputes over money. He has released 10 albums before he went federal time out.
