Memorable Musician Mugshots

Even if the charges don't stick, we remember these pics.

Cassidy - In 2005, Cassidy caught some serious charges when he was arrested for murder, attempted murder, weapons possession and more. The Philly rapper was eventually convicted of involuntary manslaughter. Not surprisingly, he looked a little roughed up in his mugshot. (Photo: New Jersey Police Department)
Chief Keef - For such a young dude, Chief Keef has faced a number of legal issues. From weed charges to failing to pay child support to speeding, Keef is no stranger to the mug shot camera. (Photo: Courtesy DEKALB COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE)
Jay Z - In 1999, Jay Z was infamously charged with felony assault for allegedly stabbing Lance “Un” Rivera. Hov ultimately plead guilty to a misdemeanor and was sentenced to probation. (Photo: New York City Police Department)
Lil Wayne - Lil Wayne was arrested on drug charges in Arizona in 2008. Of course, Weezy also caught a gun charge in New York, for which he ended up spending time behind bars. Long hair, don't care. (Photo: Yuma County Police Department)T.I. - Beyond the legal issues that he had before his rap career exploded, T.I. faced some legal turmoil in recent years. In 2007, he was nabbed on weapons possession charges. Then, in 2010, he was arrested for possession of a controlled substance. (Photo: Courtesy of The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department)
