Although the Young Money Rapper is on bail, trouble is far from over. On Saturday afternoon, Cory was arrested in the Bronx, New York, after cops searched his backpack and found an unregistered Taurus .9mm pistol. He was charged with criminal possession of a loaded firearm and, if convicted, faces a mandatory minimum sentence of three and a half years in jail.
"This was a big mistake on my part," Gunz told the New York Daily News early Monday morning after his dad, Peter Gunz, posted the $30,000 bail. "I didn't have any intentions of harming anyone or committing a criminal activity. So many young people look up to me and I need to fight through this.
"It's been really hard, really stressful," Cory continued. "When the smoke finally clears, people will understand what was going on."
So far, his manger, Nick Cannon has been really supportive.
