DG YOLA TURNS HIMSELF IN FOR 1 YEAR BID

AFTER SHOOTING COUSIN IN THE CHEST

PLANS TO RELEASE DEBUT ALBUM STILL IN PLACE

Atlanta, GA – Atlanta rapper, DG Yola, whose real name is Mario Talley, turned him self into authorities this past Friday, August 7th to begin a one-year bid stemming from an aggravated assault charge he received in December of 08. This, according to manager Lady B of Power Hittas Records.

The charge stemmed from an incident in which Yola’s own cousin tried to rob him of cash and a 2009 Jaguar upon Yola’s return from a performance, forcing Yola to shoot the man in the chest in self-defense. Yola’s cousin has since recovered and the two have apparently reconciled.

Although DG Yola was sentenced to a one year prison term, it is possible that he will qualify for an early release for good behavior. Prior to beginning his bid, Yola had been out on a $100,000 bond and had been fitted with a monitoring device.

Despite the sentence, DG Yola, who is best know for his South Eastern street classic, Ain’t Gon Let Up recent street single I'm a dog feat. Gucci Mane, still has plans to drop his debut album, Gutta World in October. Yola currently has a mixtape in the streets, Still Standing, hosted by MixxBosses DJ Panic which is available for download web-wide.
