Chief Keef The Subject Of Another Arrest Warrant


Chief Keef

Last August, arrest prone 17-year-old Chicago rapper, Chief Keef, was arrested in Miami for marijuana possession. Keef, real name Keith Cozart, told police "I have weed in my right front pocket, I want to be honest with you, officer." Really, Keef.

Keef recently missed a court hearing in connection with the case and a warrant has been issued for his arrest. If he sets foot in Miami, police could arrest him, much like they regularly do in his home state of Illinois.


However, Keef, doesn't seem to care. He's on Twitter and Instagram all the time and getting paid large sums of money for doing shows performing his music some struggle to decipher. He recently bragged on Twitter that he has already made "$6,000,000" in his career.

17-year-old Chicago rapper, Chief Keef, has been arrested again. Police in Chicago, Illinois have him under tight surveillance and have arrested him for everything from gun possession to heroin distribution to speeding. Keef even repeatedly pointed a gun at police while running from them on one occasion.

Therefore, police in Illinois have him off for said illegal conduct, which resulted in house arrest, as he is a minor. His latest arrest came hours after he pled guilty to speeding. Keef, real name, Keith Mozart, was detained again by police for trespassing...four blocks from the courthouse his speeding hearing was held in.

The most serious allegations looming over Keef is murder. The mother of slain local rapper, Joseph 'Lil JoJo' Coleman, states Keef paid to have him murdered in an act of gang violence. Keef mocked Coleman's death on Twitter but deleted the tweet shortly after.

Teenage Rapper Chief Keef Released From Jail But A Facebook Post Has Landed Him In Trouble


Chief Keef

17-year-old Chicago rapper and gang member Chief Keef, real name Keith Cozart, was released from jail yesterday, after serving 60-days in an Illinois juvenile detention center. He was detained on a gun possession probation violation, stemming from the original offense of pointing a weapon at a police officer.

However, according to NBC News, Keef, may already be in trouble with the law again. It is being reported, upon his release, Keef took to Facebook and posted items taunting "a street gang over a 2011 murder." The post has since been deleted, most likely on the advice of his lawyers.

A local Chicago pastor Corey Brooks has announced he is going to baptize Keef, which is good. He needs spiritual guidance to stay out of trouble and jail. The music industry is another minefield he will have to negotiate and with rappers constantly getting into violent confrontation, Keef needs to make some hard choices regarding the direction he will take.

Side Bar: Can you imagine Justin Bieber and Chief Keef hanging out together. Bieber likes hanging out with rappers, who have a penchant for smoking weed (Snoop Dogg and Lil Twist). However, do you think he could survive on the streets with Chief Keef. Also, can you imagine Bieber with dreads ("Chief Bieber").

Chief Keef Released From Jail

Thursday, Mar 14, 2013 | Updated 1:50 PM CDT - ... According to the Chicago Sun-Times, police are concerned about a posting on Cozart's Facebook page Thursday that taunted a street gang over a 2011 murder, however the posting appears to have been removed.

Over the past year, the rapper has managed to sign a major record deal and released a full-length CD in December, but he's also come under fire for joking on Twitter about the shooting death of an 18-year-old rival rapper, Joseph "Lil JoJo" Coleman.

South Side Pastor Corey Brooks announced a few weeks ago that he would baptize Cozart when he was released from jail.
