This is how you eff up a second chance: Lyfe Jennings Sentenced to 3.5 years.

[ween h4ed]

This the dude that bought his ex-fiance a $100k engagement ring that she won't give back right? 
My man just can't catch a break

I read he wasn't even suppose to have a gun cuz he's a felon so i'm sure that didnt help.

I guess i'm just a hoodlum in the sense that I don't see anything wrong with owning a gun.

Clappin' in the street tho.  SMH.  Yankin' fail into the air.

What don't you #!%@@!' get?!  He's a FELON!  A felon gets knocked with a gun, it's a wrap, he's going back, no questions asked.

Some of ya'll _'s are just as dumb, if not DUMBER than Lyfe.  "Well in my opinion, what he did wasn't that bad...we all get caught up in *$#%...things happen in life..."

Funny how Lyfe can accept the consequences of his actions yet you got _'s on the computer gettin' up in arms about this *$#%.

 

[itsgettinhot]

What the hell?  Did I ever say he didn't

up royally?  Cuz let's be clear, he

ed up royally.  Not that what I or you say here matters in any way.

I'd just rather try a little empathy and see if I can learn something instead of pointing out the obvious.

Now, T.I. on the other hand is a completely different story...

...I'm prolly the biggest Tip stan on this board, but that Ns BLOWING IT.

Any time or sentence he gets is time and a sentence that he brought on himself...

...and yeah, there are certain things you can't do if you wanna pose on magazine covers as Malcolm X - lookin' back on it now, that @!+% seems so blasphemous.

Still my dude and all, but that N need to sit and clear his head for a few - you ain't entitled to this music @!+% G, it's a gift, and you're takin' it for granted...

+@!@ outta here...

...after doin' a decade - 3.5 aint all that bad.

You damn sure don't want to do it, but you know you can...

...that's a mentality some people can't wrap their minds around.

 

[roc boy jada]

I guess I should have phrased my statement by saying anyone with common sense would do everything in their power to not step foot in a prison cell after such an experience, rather than saying they wouldn't want to go back. Of course no one wants to go back.
You've got a criminal record, regained freedom, children, a music career, and you decide to bust a door down, fire gunshots in the air, and have authorities chase you?! Unruly behavior like that is inexcusable, especially from someone who has done "a dime." Something is terribly wrong with an individual if they're in his position and can't find the strength to control such impulses.

From the nature of prison, to having years of your life decay, to not seeing your children, there's nothing "easy" about that at all.

He has a song on his new album called "Learn From This" that is about what happened. At first I saw the title and was like "Yeah right, he didn't learn a thing...he's going back to jail after next month." But it's not about him learning from it, it's him telling everybody else they need to learn from what he's done because he knows he was never able to.

I don't know why but this line seems really sad to me:
It's sad but it's true, and I'm gonna do the best I can,
And if by chance I don't make it, the kid's tuition is in my Timberland's

 

[harlem on the rise]

Take Your Pick:

Lyfe Jennings or Jaheim

No it's not.  It's about his failed relationship with his baby mama.

Did you even bother listening to the song before writing that?

Easier said than done.  Some ppl just cant shake that mentality.  And I take back the "should be easy" part.  Aint nothing easy about doing time,  but compared to his previous stint,  this should be easier in the sense that it's not something new and he's done way more time before.
