Hours earlier, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge David Herriford imposed the sentence on the 31-year-old, who was convicted in December of three felony counts of using a semiautomatic weapon against Stallion, with whom he had a feud inside the car they were riding in.

The bloody incident was recorded in July 2020. The “Savage” and “Shots Fired” singer publicly accused Lanez of shooting her multiple times in the legs. For the first time, he spoke about the incident through Instagram Live. Speaking in 2022 on the CBS Mornings show, he said there was an argument in the group riding in a car in the Hollywood Hills. “At this particular moment, the fight wasn’t even about me, but about the two people in the back seat».

Megan said she never raised her voice or pressured anyone during the fight, but from the moment she got out of the car, the situation escalated. “All I could hear was this man screaming at me “dance bitch” and then he started shooting. I was terrified because she shot twice. I was so scared, I didn’t even want to move or try to escape. I didn’t know he wouldn’t normally shoot me or kill me… I was terrified because I had never been shot before».

As the rapper revealed in the same interview, whose real name is Daystar Peterson, after the incident in which she was injured, offered her a million dollars not to talk to the police. After being shot in the leg the American rapper from Houston saw her career take off and in addition to chart success she became the first black woman to be photographed on the cover of Forbes 30 Under 30.

In total she has won three Grammy Awards and has seen sixteen of her songs climb into the top 10 of the Billboard chart.
