The rapper is pleased the court didn't add more restrictions, his lawyer said.
A federal judge denied the United States government's request for rapper BG to abstain from glorifying gun violence in his music while he's on parole for a gun charge.
The rapper, whose real name is Christopher Dorsey, is on supervised release for felon in possession of a gun and obstruction of justice charges, according to court documents obtained.
Judge Susie Morgan also ruled that the creator of the song "Bling Bling" and former member of the label Cash Money Records, will need to submit all new song lyrics to the court and prosecutors before publishing them while on supervised release, according to court records.
"To address the legitimate concerns expressed by the Government, the Court will impose a special condition that the Defendant provide the United States Probation Office with a copy of the lyrics of any song he writes, in advance of his production or promotion of such song," according to Morgan's order. "The Government may, if it deems necessary and appropriate, file another motion for leave to file a rule to show cause why the Defendant's conditions of supervised release should not be modified because the Defendant's conduct is inconsistent with the goals of rehabilitation."
