Sheff G is dealing with some serious legal issues. Recently, however, he took the time to write a heartfelt message to his girlfriend. “Throughout all our ups and downs I learned how to become a better man," the message began.
"You taught me and walk me through so many things in such a short time," he continued. "I love you more than everything baby girl ... Everybody make mistakes in this world n I can’t believe I would be the one to make the mistake of losing you. You my heart, my other half, and I’ll do anything to see you happy and living, loving life."
According to Complex, the artist is preparing to be sentenced on August 13. He pleaded guilty to attempted murder in March after being one of 32 people indicted in a 140-count gang case. He agreed to five years behind bars.
“Notoriety could not shield this defendant from justice," Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez said of the plea. "He used his fame to fund and direct violence, terrorizing our streets, and though we sought a much longer sentence, he will now be held to account. Brooklyn will not tolerate gangs that endanger our communities, and we remain committed to dismantling these criminal networks and holding those responsible fully accountable.”
During an interview with FOX 5 New York earlier this week, he revealed how he's feeling ahead of the sentence.
“It’s always gonna be tough,” he said. “That’s something very hard to prepare for but you build and you build and you put the right things in place and the right people in place and you just hope for the best.”
“I just want the kids and the youth to see the growth and the development with me and my label," he added. "And all my peers around me, just give my story out to the world."
Perry Farrell has released another public apology following an on-stage confrontation involving his bandmate Dave Navarro.
The Jane's Addiction frontman was involved in a physical altercation with guitarist Dave Navarro last year during a live performance, an incident that prompted the band to cancel their reunion tour and eventually led to their split.
“I'd like to address what happened on stage last year,” Perry, 66, said in a statement shared across both his personal Instagram account and Jane's Addiction’s official page. “I've reflected on it and know I didn't handle myself the way I should have. I apologize to our patrons and my bandmates for losing my temper and for disrupting the show.”
He went on to admit that he did not meet fan expectations and described himself as deeply remorseful toward everyone impacted by the incident.
“Jane's Addiction has been at the center of my life for decades. The band, the songs, the patrons, and the impact that we've had on music and culture mean more to me than any words I could ever possibly write down,” he shared.
“My aim has always been to give our audience the best possible show, something real, honest and positive. In Boston, we fell short of that, and I'm truly sorry to everyone who was impacted.”
Jane's Addiction also issued its own statement regarding the altercation, which ultimately led to the group’s remaining members filing a lawsuit against Perry alleging assault, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, negligence, breach of fiduciary duty, and breach of contract.
“Today we are here to announce that we have come together one last time to resolve our differences, so that the legacy of Jane's Addiction will remain the work the four of us created together,” the band wrote, signaling that the group would not move forward with Perry. “We now look forward to the future as we embark on our separate musical and creative endeavors.”
