Remy Ma Says Prison Was the Worst Experience of Her Life
For rapper Remy Ma, nothing has shaken her more than the eight-year prison sentence she received in 2008 after being convicted of assault and criminal possession of a weapon surrounding the shooting of a former friend over an alleged $3000 in stolen money.
During a recent appearance on Nick Cannon and Courtney Bee’s online series, “We Playing Spades,” the Bronx native was asked what she’d change if given the chance. She immediately responded, “Not going to prison, ever. The f—k?”
Remy elaborated, “Before that, the worst thing that ever happened to me was I got cut in my face… It used to really bother me a lot, and I used to say, this is the worst thing that’s ever happened to me. And then there was the penitentiary. And I was like, this s—t not cool. It was the worst thing that I’ve ever endured in my life, ever.”
The “Conceited” emcee was released in 2014 after serving six years in prison. Her post-release supervision ended on Aug. 1, 2019.
