Rapper Fetty Wap was sentenced to six years in federal prison in a Long Island, New York, courtroom on May 24 — 18 months after his arrest on drug trafficking charges at the New York Rolling Loud festival in October 2021. The 31-year-old New Jersey native pleaded guilty last August to conspiracy to distribute and possess cocaine from the West Coast to Long Island. Last summer, attorneys for the recording artist — whose legal name is Willie Junior Maxwell II — said his plea deal 'pertained only to cocaine' and spared the artist from a 'potential life sentence' had he been convicted on all charges Maxwell was facing.
