Rapper and actor, Clifford Harris, better known as T.I; has been sentenced to one year and one day in prison, having pleaded guilty on three charges of possessing illegal weapons.
The rapper was originally arrested in 2007 after being caught trying to purchase unregistered machine guns. The arrest took place near by where he was soon to headline at the BET Hip Hop Awards, in Atlanta.
He recently completed 1,000 hours of community service which included speaking to adolescents about the dangers involved with drug and gun possession.
In a hearing in Los Angles, in March 2008, he originally pleaded "not guilty" - which would have seen him face 10 years behind bars - however, he then changed his plea to "guilty".
The star has up to 60 days to report to jail.
