It’s been a long time coming for Michael Tyler, better known as Mystikal. After serving a six-year prison sentence for sexual battery, the former No Limit rap star wants a chance to redeem himself and continue with his career. Since he’s been released, Mystikal has been open to doing interviews and wasted no time in getting back on his grind. Here’s an interview with Sway for MTV…
Mystikal still owes one more album to Jive Records and his contract will be fulfilled. The Louisiana native who was once a member of the No Limit Records roster recently signed with former rival label Cash Money Records, both based in New Orleans, Louisiana. We once knew the flamboyant rapper for his energetic personality and explosive performances, but now there’s a noticeably big change in Mystikal’s persona. He’s humbled himself down and makes it a point to let everyone know that he’s appreciative for the support from fans and peers. Snoop Dogg and Mystikal recently chopped it up about the past and even revealed facts about Snoop’s tenure at No Limit Records….
Michael Tyler aka Mystikal was convicted of a crime and served his time. It’s apparent that he feels remorse for what happened so what’s done is DONE. Mystikal has fulfilled his legal obligation to the victim and state of Louisiana, now it’s time to enjoy what he now has to offer us through his music.
“…we’ve got to take responsibility for what we do, too. “We’ve got to pay more attention to what we’re doing ourselves. We can’t be fools, especially when you’re blessed and successful beyond your dreams. We’ve got to tighten up…. I’m still trying to feel this reality, I was gone so long, all the things I achieved felt like a dream, like I had never done that stuff.”

Tim Mosley, better known as Timbaland, sat down with The Breakfast Club and revealed things about himself that most fans probably never knew.

There are things embedded in his persona that propelled him to be amongst the greatest musicians of our generation.

If you don’t know already, the rapper that we all know as Rick Ross isn’t the original Rick Ross. The MMG artist was inspired to use the name of former drug kingpin ‘Freeway’ Ricky Ross without his consent.

Will the Real Rick Ross please stand up…
Just as Freeway Ricky Ross thought the law would ride with him on this issue, an L.A. County Superior court judge ruled that Rick Ross, the artist, can rightfully use the name and dismissed the case. No statement has been released from Freeway Ricky as of yet.
