Rapper Meek Mill is headed back to prison.
The Philadelphia rapper was sentenced to two to four years in Pennsylvania state prison Monday after violating probation.
According to Philly's CBS 3 , the 30-year-old known legally as Robert Rihmeek William, was already under probation for a drug and weapons case and has been arrested twice this year – in March in St. Louis, where he was charged with a misdemeanor for an altercation with two airport employees and in August for illegally riding his dirt bike in the Inwood section of Manhattan.
Mill spent eight months in prison following a 2008 conviction for dealing drugs and gun possession.
The "House Party" rapper performed in Atlanta earlier this year at the V-103 "Pop-Up Live" concert at Philips Arena, but a summer tour with Yo Gotti, slated to play Lakewood, was postponed.
