Before he left office a few years ago, Donald Trump pardoned Kodak Black and Lil Wayne, who were both facing pretty serious charges. The former has still landed himself in a bunch of legal trouble since, but Wayne has mostly stayed out the way. Trump also was vocal about freeing A$AP Rocky, though the rapper said that it ended up being little help.
Now, another rapper has benefitted from a Trump pardon.
