Atlanta rapper and current inmate; Gucci Mane’s name has popped up in a disturbing rumor that we are hoping is not true. Gucci is currently serving a year sentence for a violation of his probation and rumors are spreading that Gucci died in jail from an overdose. Well earlier today Atlanta’s post chronicle ran a story starting the rumors. Check it out below:

Rumors are circulating that Rapper Gucci Mane, real name Radric Davic, has died. Text messages were circulating this morning that Gucci Mane died while in Jail by a drug overdose. There are no real sources of this his death, and for the moment it’s just a rumor.

Rapper Gucci mane has been in and out of jail for many different charges. On May 10, 2005 Gucci was in a gun-fight at an exotic dancer’s house where soon he was arrested on a warrant involving the body of Macon, Georgian rapper Henry Lee Clark III (Pookie Loc) found that day near a public school in Decatur. Gucci claimed he was using his gun in self-defense. Gucci then turned himself in and charges of murder was dropped and Gucci faced probation. Last July, Gucci was arrested during a traffic stop when police found weed and a gun in his car.

As of press time it is still unconfirmed whether or not this is true but let’s hope for the best.
