Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman — the notorious Mexican drug kingpin — has been found guilty on 10 felony charges following a three-month trial. He’s expected to spend the rest of his life behind bars at a high security U.S. prison.
According to ABC News, El Chapo was convicted by an anonymous Brooklyn federal jury on Tuesday morning (February 12).
The United States Department of Justice website explains he was charged with “being a principal operator of a continuing criminal enterprise – the Mexican organized crime syndicate known as the Sinaloa Cartel – a charge that includes 26 drug-related violations and one murder conspiracy.”
Of course, this isn’t the first time El Chapo has been in prison — he’s notoriously escaped twice.
Now, he faces a mandatory sentence of life imprisonment at his sentencing, which is scheduled for June 25.
Countless rappers have cited El Chapo in their music, including The Game on the appropriately titled “El Chapo,” Gucci Mane on “Cartel Talk,” Fashawn on “Hola Santiago” and Fat Trel on “Walking Thru My Hood.”

Well there goes mexico. Although he was ruthless he maintained a certain level of stability. Shit is about to get thick south of the border. Watch how the bodies drop and the overdoses rise.
the high rate of overdose happens in the us, mexico doesnt have a drug problem like that, nobodys gonna drop cause he is still the boss even if he is in jail
These rappers glorifying Mexican cartels are complete dumb fucks. Yeah, let’s praise these guys that flood our hoods with drugs. Mexicans don’t even like black people, so don’t get too chummy. It’s the same shit with dumb ass rappers praising Che Guevara; he would have hated their dumb asses being that he was an extreme racist. Keep rapping about men that hate your asses though. It’s amusing.
Not all Mexicans dislike African Americans. You sound like Donald. Quit preaching and hate spewing these blanket racist ass generalizations about other people.
So Che went to Congo in 1965 to fight with africans for the worldrevolution because he hate blacks right ?
We only hate dumb mayates like you pendejo
Thats why i laugh at these dumb fuckers like 2 chainz who tries to “rep his city” and look out for people and try and be a synbol of his community yet he makes songs boasting about a sack of shit murderer guys responsible for uncountable over dose deaths how many deaths over territory and trafficing humans like cattle and how many people locked up in prison? Guys a piece of shit and so zre all the cock suckers that support him

Why do rappers glorify evil people makes no sense. They should be inspired by more righteous people and make songs about them. El chapo couldn’t care about these rappers making songs about him and makes all these fake gangsta rappers look like school girls. He is going to be sent down for life and has to answer to God for his evil crimes and acts.
Because the crews behind these rappers move the Cartels product. And the rappers themselves market the product through their music.
