: NEW YORK (AP) — Remy Ma has been sentenced to eight years in prison in the shooting a woman outside a Manhattan nightclub.
The state Supreme Court sentence was handed Tuesday to the 26-year-old rapper, whose real name is Remy Smith, for assault, weapon possession and attempted coercion.
Remy Ma, who could have faced up to 25 years in prison, was teary-eyed as she heard the sentence.
She says last summer's shooting was an accident; an appeal is planned.
Correction officials say they called off her weekend wedding at the Rikers Island jail after the groom — fellow rapper Papoose — showed up with a handcuff key.
Remy Ma's lawyer, Ivan Fisher, denies the key could be used to unlock handcuffs. Papoose isn't charged.
Fisher says the two still plan to wed.
I like Remy as a rapper but this was some *** azz s**t!!!
If she really thought her friend had stolen the $3000, she should've just punched the ***; kicked her ***!!
She didn't have to *** her; if you can't take it to someone with your hands, you are a ***!! Anybody can ***, but not everyone can fight.
This is really eff'ed up. She don't deserve that, she could have at least got charged for just gun possesion. Makeda is a grimy chick and everyone knows that. She stay asking for people SSN in the hood and she is a known thief. That is why Remy popped on her because she stole $2000 from her the same *** Remy bought her clothes and paid for her to get into clubs. Remy asked her to hold her bag and next thing you know all of her money was gone. I bet Makeda uses this to write a book or something so she can get paid. Such a slim-ball.
Keep ya head up Remy! And leave Lil Kim alone, lol.
Stupid ***! How you accidently *** someone? Come on! Her *** knew she didn't stand a chance, she should actually be lucky faces 25. And now her son will be about 16 when she gets out and more than likely will be doing the same buffoonery. All that talent wasted over a couple g's. She has paid like ten times that on lawyer fees on top of being locked up like an animal for 8 years.
SAD TO SAY...BUT THATS WUT THAT AZZ GETS!!! SHE CAN TAKE THAT..."IT WAS AN ACCIDENT" *** ON SUM WHERE!!! SHE HAD EVERY INTENTION OF DOING EXACTLY WUT SHE DID!! DUMB AZZ LUCKY THEY DIDNT STILL GIVE HER ATT MURDER!! SHE NEEDED MORE TIME THAN THAT!!! IM NOT HATIN...BUT IF YOU DO THE CRIME YOU NEED TO DO THE TIME!!! SUM OF YALL SAME LAME *** CONTRADICTING AZZ MOFOS THAT SAID T.I.P. NEEDED EVERYTHING THAT THEY GONE GIVE HIM!! NOW THAT REMY GOT 8 YEARS....YALL ALL ON SUM..."SHE GOT DONE WRONG" ISH!! WTF?? WUT ABOUT THE GIRL SHE ***?? SO ITS BEEN SAID...SHE DIDNT EVEN HAVE REMY'S 3 STACKS!!! YALL MOFOS KILLS ME!!!
I hate it for her, but rappers, entertainers need to know that just because they have money doesn't mean that can uphold the law. Maybe she will not have to do the entire 8 years. I'm thinking maybe she'll only do 4 years. I feel bad for her son, he's missing out on time with his mother being there. This is sensless, what was she thinking?
@KellsT, I agree 100%.
Sad and unfortunate for her son...WTH is going through these people's mind..Just pull out a gun and *** and questions later huh? And she was in NYC...hell nah...She is lucky she didn't get the whole 25. God bless her son... Over $3,000...What is $3,000 when you're a celeb anyway. Alot of these rappers/entertainers spend that in an hour...hell 30 minutes.
@ miss_twenty_three and every other ghetto bird on here who thinks Remy was treated unfairly, let Remy put one in your ignorant *** and see if you still feel she should get away with what she did. I can't believe how stupid some folks can be! What amazes me is these project bunnies even know how to use a computer.
DANG YO..THE GRIMEY PEOPLE STAY GETTING OVER..
BUT A)what goes around comes around B)whatever's in the dark will eventually come in the light...
REMY NO DOUBT YUH ARE GONNA HOLD YA HEAD AND REGARDLESS WHAT HATAS SAY YUH KNO YUH STILL SPIT THE SICKEST...IT MAY LOOK LIKE YUH LOST BUT THE GAME IS FAR FROM OVER... BLESS...
Okay well she should of thought about that before she did what she did...*** how come celebrities think that they are of a higher power and think they can get off on stuff like this. Now she'll have 8 looooong years to reflect.
If it were any average joe on the street they would of gotten the maximum sentence.
Like someone posted earlier... in the famous lines of D. Chapelle-when keeping it real goes WRONG. This ish is major, 8 long hard years of your life. If you gonna talk about it, be about it, don't come with all the crying and ish, not hearing it. 8years + $3000=not worth it. She's not walking right through metal detectors now. We all want to lash out at someone and do stuff out of anger, light up people with a few hot ones, we all have regrets, but nothing is worse than regretting something that affects my kids. @realdasu, "so all you project rats, close them legs, learn english, move to the burbs and read a book! real talk!" I'm there with you on that, closed my legs, got the he--out of Newark and now resting comfortably in the burbs of VA, preparing for my law school education. Thats the business.
Yall crazy! She could of been facing Life...That woman she *** could of been killed or something...Who cares if it was a accident that just stupid and crazy...
A grown azz woman running around acting gangsta...Remy watching to many movies...She has a kid she should of been more concern about...She could of sign up for a feature movie or something and did all that....crazy
Wow, I don't feel a bit of sympathy for her *** b/c if the girl would of died, she would of been facing more time than that. How the hell do you accidently *** someone? Aren't you pulling out the gun? Aren't you pointing it? So how is that an accident?
She better make room for MADDOGG and BIG BERTHA to bunk up with her in the cell.
@ PLaymateBri

*getting up from computer, clutching stomach, slapping knee, falling out dying!* DEAD! DEAD! DEAD! I just died three times. LMFA[SPAM]O!!!!!
F^ck that Remy! Do your time b!tch. You str8. You a gangsta remember? Sad. I glad she got 8 years. I wish the dumb broad would've gotten more. How do you accidently go get your gun AND accidently jump in the car AND accidently pull the trigger. WTF? If you *** her on purpose, say it. That's what gangstas do. Keep your head up and stay far away from the brooms!! LOL!
To the person who said that Makeda was grimy and deserved what she got: Sounds like you were a little jealous of her before she got painfully thrust into the limelight. Bet she won't be asking around for social security numbers anymore! She just got her ticket out the hood. You probably stole the 3G's and passed Remy the gun yourself. You just made Makeda even hotter! Bet you feel like a dummy everytime you see her on television don't ya...don't ya? I bet it was that silky hair that made you so mad wasn't it?
there is no way you can load a gun in front of someone and pull the trigger and claim it was an accident. was it an accident she had a gun? or ***? or maybe it was an accident she got caught. im sad to see another sister get locked up but imagin if this woman she *** had died....she would be doing more that just 8 years. besides she gangsta so she should do this standing on her head....right? LOL
@ solo817
you neva lied! She going to be watching that episode of Dave Chapelle when the lady traced the lady number and went to her house and smashed her car. then got thrown in jail for 25years. WHEN KEEPING IT REAL GOES WRONG! BOUT TIME SHE GET OUT REALITY SHOWS WILL BE PLAYED OUT SO SHE CAN'T DO LIKE LIL KIM OR FOXY AND HAVE OR APPEAR ON A REALITY SHOW.
SHE JAIL NOW SCREAMING "SOMEBODY GET AL *** ON THE PHONE, JESSE, OBAMA, ANYBODY SH!T JOHNNY U HERE I KNOW U DEAD BUT I NEED YO HELP!"
SHE MADE LUCKY. One she was mad unappologetic. That's a no no in the court...got to humble yourself. Two she should've came at the whole situation to get a plead deal. I mean if you have the gun in your possession and you *** then you can't beat that with an oops plead lmao. She acted like she didn't give a *** the whole time, including when she was locked waiting for sentencing. She talked crazy to the guards and put it out there in an interview. She mad lucky that she ONLY got 8 years. She faced 25 years and she stayed under 10 even with all her *** going on. She do 4 years good then she might see outside in 5 years and no matter what you remy supporters have to say about the victim i know if that girl was someone you cared about then you'd want sometype of justice.
A lot of you sound wack as ever talking about Remy should have gotten less time.
Let me come position a few pieces of lead in your belly and see if you and your whole family don't lobby to have my azz put under the jail.
If you ask me Remy got off easy.
So who caused who to Lean Back?
Ignorant non rapping gangsta thug miss wanna be pepe lepew dusty looking not taking her son into consideration from day one inmate! The only thing I pray for Remy is that she is able to hold it all together mentally over these next 8 years.
Maybe they will let her paint a stripe up the back of that county outfit.
esotericdredz Flag post 8 Years is a slap on the wrist and further proof that the only color than matters in crime and justice is GREEN.
That woman could have died..And she showed no remorse..She deserved to get more time.
^^^I doubt if money played any factor. The kid that killed my 1st bf only got 3 years. So 8 years for *** someone is a lot to me.
Also this kid *** a girl in the stomach & killed her bf & he only got 4 years.
*maybe the laws in NJ are different?*
I truly feel bad for her son! What she did was crazy!!!Despite the fact the chick Makeeda was a thief or not! If she really felt like she stole that money she should have beat the broad bloody & kept it moving at least she'd be free right now... *** Rem' when keeping it real goes horribly 'WRONG'! Stay strong hon'...
REMY played herself. She *** someone and put them in the hospital...and instead of trying to play herself down in the trial, she tried to be cute and came to court dressed like a hoochie. She thought she could beat the rap. She didn't learn anything from Lil Kim and Foxy. Those chicks each got a year and they weren't accused of attempted murder. Remy doesn't even have the same cache. I feel sorry for her son but not for her.
I think this is unfortunate but i dont think 8 years is excessive. If it was an accident she should have stayed to help her. The whole thing was a bad look for remy why you *** b*tches over 4k is times really that tough for you remy ma? Now everyones oh what about her son she wasnt too concerned when she was at that club, or when she bought that gun, or when she pulled the trigger. I guarantee pappooose will disapppear after a couple of years if that it's different when it's the chick in jail.
i know she *** up and u get time when u *** up but all yall peeps saying good thats what she get yall are some lames. but was happy when oj stab two people several times and got off. you never wish jail on nobody. i could see if you knew rem and had beef with her and u laughed but to say thats what she get and she should have gotten the whole 25 is like puffy say ***
I am speechless reading the sentence and reading the comments-to the dude that said Remy's skills are 2nd grade who have you been listening to??? Rem's skills are waaaay better than any other female MC even some males so pls stop hating on her because of the crime-my girl gots skills-My prayers are with Jayson (her son) and EVERYONE involved-I will always support Rem cuz everyone makes mistakes and the only people who know the truth are Rem, Makeeda and the LORD-keep ya head up Rem-Pap keep holding her down-and for her real fans she doesn't have a chance for parole so keep her in ur prayers
Stop hating on remy if my so called friend would have robbed me I would have *** her *** too!! She supposed to be her girl. She proved she is not trustworthy. If that was the mobb, her *** would have got hit too. It has nothing to do with being a punk. Every action has a reaction and depending on who your dealing with, depends on how the situation is handled and she reacted in her ay. Where she went wrong was she did not have a gun license. If she was licensed she would have been okay. She'll be okay though.
@ COBONNER
I did not justify what Remy did, I disagree with it and that is my right. How does that make me a project bunny? People use terms with no meaning, I am so laughing at your dumb azz!
@QBtoVA
Firstly, I have beautiful long hair, I probably can sale you a few inches, so why would I hate on the pack hair on your head or Makeda. I don't know Makeda, but I know she is not innocent. That is why I am upset about the verdict because that Makeda is using her wounds as a way to gain fame. If she was truly melancholy then she wouldn't be talking to the press and if Remy was really her friend, she wouldn't be telling the press bad things about her. Personally, I couldn't do to my friend. And secondly, you need to go ahead because why could I possibly be jealous of a monkey like Makeda, LOL. No shade but the chick is not cute, even if she was, I look better LOL..Chicks like you will be the reason why I continue to catch cases because I would have slapped you if you said that to my face. It's funny how you don't know who are talking to online, but I can introduce you, dumb bird. Just because you got a weave and an outfit from H&M, don't make you hot, bird LOL. Get a life, a clue, and better yet, keep your opinions to yourself unless they actually mean something. Stupid chickens need a way out the hood instead of working for it, they rather do grimy things. I don't support that at all.
This comment was very wack and uncalled for:
To the person who said that Makeda was grimy and deserved what she got: Sounds like you were a little jealous of her before she got painfully thrust into the limelight. Bet she won't be asking around for social security numbers anymore! She just got her ticket out the hood. You probably stole the 3G's and passed Remy the gun yourself. You just made Makeda even hotter! Bet you feel like a dummy everytime you see her on television don't ya...don't ya? I bet it was that silky hair that made you so mad wasn't it
and another thing for COBONNER:
"there‘s NO unity in OUR community" - THERE IS NO UNITY BECAUSE OF PEOPLE LIKE YOU. FAKE *** MOTHER EARTH, NEO-SOUL...ITS ALWAYS THE PEOPLE WALKING SCREAMING BLACK PANTHER, AFRO THIS, AND AFRO THAT, THEY POSSESS THE MOST MISERY LOL....TOO BAD YA WORDS CAN'T HURT ME SWEETIE, YOU DONT EXIST, JUST ME AND MY $1200 COMPUTER SCREEN LOL
