In the latest issue of XXL magazine, the publication interviewed Harlem, New York emcee G-Dep at Rikers Island. The 36 year-old is presently facing potential life in prison if found guilty for second-degree murder, regarding a 1993 robbery-shooting that G-Dep confessed to this past December when he walked into a New York Police Department precinct.
In the interview, the former Bad Boy Records artist and father of three spoke to his fans, whom had heard the local legend on appearances with Gang Starr and Diddy, prior to his own Child Of The Ghetto solo debut.
“I want to apologize to the people out there that supported me. You kind of just listen to the music. You might not necessarily want to deal with the trials and tribulations that they go through all the time, so I apologize to the fans,” said the emcee, noting that he prefers to refer to listeners as “supporters.”
Additionally, G-Dep revealed that his former mentor and “Let’s Get It” and “Special Delivery” collaborator, Diddy, had contacted G-Dep’s wife. “I haven’t spoke to him in a minute, and he reached out to my family. He spoke to my wife and was showing support. That’s what’s up,” he said. Diddy also recently praised his former late ’90s signing during a Sirius Radio interview.
this dude should have kept his mouth shit, now his children are going to grow up without a their father
Dude wasn’t there for his children when he was free. The person, he killed had family too.
True they’ll be without a their father. Why he no keep quiet? I don’t know. Mama mia.
he probably has peace of mind now though. besides how much was he helping his kids being a druggie anyway. and he was probably on that crack 2 escape that guilt he was feeling for murdering somebody
i guess in a way turning himself in and doing to right thing is setting a good example for the kids
The dudes family that he killed said why did he confess theyve long made peace and now habe to be brought thru the pain again…
Damn G-Dep… that “Child Of The Ghetto”, the song, is classic.

Oh apparantly Dep didn’t know that the individual he shot had died. He confessed to the shooting and than he was alerted the man had died.
