"Danger!" Mystikal Released From Prison
New Orleans rapper Mystikal was released from a Federal Prison in Louisiana last week, after serving close to three years behind bars.
As previously reported, Mystikal (born Michael L. Tyler) was sentenced to six years in prison in 2004, for forcing his hairstylist to perform oral sex on him as repayment for allegedly stealing $80,000 worth of checks from him. Last year Tyler was sentenced to an additional year in federal prison for tax evasion charges; that time was served concurrently with his previous sentence.
We have learned that the Grammy-nominated rapper was released from prison on January 11.
Mystikal began his career on Master P's No Limit Records in the mid 90's, but gained national attention in 2000, with his hit single "Shake That Ass." His last album, Tarantula, garnered him a nomination for Best Rap Album and Best Male Rap Solo performance in 2003.
