Kevin Gates is scheduled to be released from Polk County Jail on March 24 after being sentenced 180 days under the cell.
Last October, A jury of six women found the 31-year-old Baton Rouge native guilty of battery after a video surfaced of him kicking a then 18-year-old female fan during a concert at Rumors Nightclub in Lakeland, Florida back in 2015.
The Islah rapper tried to use Florida’s “Stand Your Ground Law” for his defense to no avail, as he claims the fan, Miranda Dixon, kept aggressively grabbing on his leg. His wife, Dreka Gates, championed the actions perpetuated by Kevin and noted that Dixon and her friend stayed at the show even after the incident occurred.
Dixon passed out as a result of the kick and was taken to the hospital following the incident where she was given a CT scan.
Polk County prosecutors were gunning for a 60-day sentence for the boot. However, he was instead given 180 days by Judge Sharon Franklin who sternly condemned him for his actions.
“While a simple act of touching or pushing someone without his or her consent may amount to simple battery, the Court finds that such a minor act does not necessarily rise to such a level as to justify the use of force in return,” Judge Franklin wrote in the five-page order, according to The Ledger.
Good to hear. Stay out of trouble.
This kid looks like a fat dyke.
LOL at fat dyke.
I’m a hater! I hate everytime I see a fucking Kevin Gates meme like he’s a fucking philosopher or philanthropist. People may like his music, but he’s no genius! That shit is annoying AS FUCK!!
I wish they could keep him a little longer… he is a bum! He hits women. Cowardly punk butt nukka…..
Have you seen some of the rachet chicks he smacked up? Watch a few WSHH videos and you’ll feel different about women lol.
Some women deserve it and its not cowardly if a woman doesnt respect your physical boundaries and is warned multiple times or shrugged away multiple times and keeps on i woulda showed that bitch what the edge of the stage tastes like curb stomp style myself nasty ass looking bitch and the guys married and has 2 kids he had every right
I’ll give him two months post-release and his black ass back in prison
I hope he does well in life, but as a hip hop fan it will be a sad day when he returns. However, I think more ppl who praise this mediocre rap need to get kicked so I hope he stops rapping but continues to be on stage in some capacity.
Word!!
Word is this black man mister Kevin Gates done dropped the soap in the prison showers more than once. And on purpose too.
Damn bet you were in there with him to see that while you dropped the soap all 180 days while he was there and liked it lol
Y’all really hate Gates huh, I don’t think it’s that’s serious dude just a character. He makes hits whether y’all hate or not, his interviews are mad pointless though
Female jurors and judge? Yea i woulda walked in that courtroom and walked right out while screaming MISTRIAL! lol get me in fucking contempt of court i guarentee even with a contempt charge in a fairer trial i bet he woulda seen no more than 30 days jail and only reason woild be for the contempt 180 days? Damn
There’s pretty conclusive looking video footage of Gates hoofing a woman in the chest at close quarters. I don’t think gender has much to do with being able to spot this.
It does when your a female grabbing for an attatched mans dick repeatedly cause your a nasty hoe and get shrugged off a few times cause yea i have watched the video and again im married myself i would have done the same exact thing
She grabs the bottom of his long ass shorts, pretty lightly. I don’t care how much junk you’re packing, your dick isn’t even getting close to that, she’s not going for his dick she just wants his attention. Then Kevin Gates comes out and defends himself with some nonsense, “If I was trying to stick my dirty ass fingers up some woman’s vagina” or words to that effect. That’s him jumping to extremes to try and defend the fact he just fucking cold kicked a woman. He even went as far in interviews to say he didn’t even kick her which is clearly just bullshit.

Dont matter if it was for the dick even or not and no it wad not 1 tug unless your watching a shortened video…. it was more like 3-4 tugs at him then he finaly kicked her….i dont care if its sexual an assault or a theft if someone keeps touching you when you indicate to them you dont want to be touched then i think the person should be able to answer back in response physicaly with something they may not like…. and fuck for all we know thig guy could be borderline autistic like half the millenials of this era and being touched in itself can trigger a violent response…which is why you keep your fucking hands to yourself like a decent respectful adult and nothing bad will come to you…
Sorry. I’m trying to reply to Djf but it keeps attaching my response to your comment WTF.
Dam, HHDX doesn’t even realize they put up a picture of Young MA for a Kevin Gates article smh…
