Tony Yayo | Where Are They Now? | What Happened To Him?

Tony Yayo spent a good chunk of his early life with a young
50-Cent, teaming up to rap, hustle, and generally struggle through
life together on the mean streets of New York City. But when 50
finally began to hit his stride in the early 2000s, suddenly, Yayo
was nowhere to be seen. Turns out, his prior criminal activities
had finally caught up with him, landing him behind bars for well
over a year. But 50 wouldn’t forget about the man he grew up
alongside and when Yayo was finally released, he would rejoin the
group he helped found in the first place -- G-Unit -- by taking his
rightful place as one of the group’s longest-running members.
Unfortunately, a true solo career was never really in the cards –
but that hasn’t stopped Yayo from continuing to participate in the
world of hip-hop behind the scenes while also capitalizing on his
long and storied history in the industry. Ever wonder how Yayo went
from being released from prison to finding himself back on the
inside within the span of a day? Then stay tuned to our newest
episode of Where Are They Now to find out all about Tony Yayo!
