BATON ROUGE, La.—A Baton Rouge rapper known as "Lil Boosie" has been sentenced to eight years in prison following his guilty plea to drug charges.

The 29-year-old rapper's real name is Torrence Hatch. He pleaded guilty Tuesday to conspiring to smuggle codeine, marijuana and ecstasy into two state prisons. They were the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola and Dixon Correctional Institute in Jackson, La.

Assistant District Attorney Dana Cummings says Hatch was serving a prison term for a separate conviction for marijuana possession when he smuggled the drugs with help from a prison guard.

Makes me long for the good old days when all we had to worry about was seeing our favorite stars or singers being brought up on a drunk driving change, marijuana possession or being outed as gay.

How much time did the guard get for aiding and abeting the rapper?
