Felony cocaine charge for Coolio

By: hiphopblog.comPosted On: 06/29/2009 10:46 A

Rapper Coolio has pled guilty today to one felony count of possession of cocaine.

Coolio, whose real name is Artis Leon Ivey, will enter an 18-month drug rehab program called Deferred Entry of Judgment. If Ivey successfully completes the program, he can request that the judge dismiss his case at the end of a year and a half.

Coolio was arrested March 6 at Los Angeles International Airport after cops searched his luggage and found drugs. A misdemeanor battery charge and one misdemeanor count of possession of a smoking device were dismissed in exchange of Coolio's plea.

Mr. "Fantastic Voyage" is scheduled to return to L.A. Superior Court on September 28 for a progress report.
