[edit] Music career

After meeting with Sean Combs in 1998, G. Dep was signed to a $350,000, five-album deal with Bad Boy Records.[1][4] In the next year, he appeared on two songs on Black Rob's 1999 debut album Life Story.[5] G. Dep released his only solo album Child of the Ghetto in 2001. Child of the Ghetto peaked at #106 on Billboard 200 and #23 on Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums.[7] Single "Special Delivery" from the album peaked at #59 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and #3 on Hot Rap Singles.[8][9]

G. Dep was subsequently dropped from Bad Boy Records.[10] G. Dep and Loon released independent album Bad Boy in 2007.
[edit] Criminal record and substance abuse

Coleman stated in an interview that he has been convicted of robbery and served time in Rikers Island.[11] Coleman has been arrested for drug offenses, burglary and grand larceny more than 25 times since 2003.[1]

After the release of Child of the Ghetto, Coleman had a long-time struggle with PCP addiction.[12] In 2008, Coleman told XXL about his substance abuse problems and rehabilitation.[13] At the time of his latest arrest Coleman was in Narcotics Anonymous' twelve-step program.[14]
[edit] Murder case

On December 15, 2010, Coleman walked into 25th Precinct to turn himself in. He confessed to cold case, 1993 murder of a Queens man. Coleman had attempted to confess twice before, but was previously considered to be under the influence of drugs and incoherent.[14]

On October 19, 1993, John Henkel was shot in the chest with .40-caliber gun outside of James Weldon Johnson Houses on Park Avenue and East 114th Street. Coleman stated that he ambushed and shot Henkel during an attempted robbery and fled and threw the weapon into the East River.[1] Coleman's information matched with the case and he was charged with murder. He is currently being held without bail at George Motchan Detention Center in Rikers Island.[3] Coleman told in interview that he confessed because the case weighed on him and he was "just trying to get things right between himself and God".[15] Coleman claimed that he did not know that his victim died.[6]

Sean Combs commented G. Dep's situation on Sirius' Shade 45 radio show, saying Coleman did the "right thing" by confessing.[16]

Coleman pleaded not guilty to second-degree murder at his appearance in New York Supreme Court on January 13. He is facing life sentence for the crime.[15]
