Tony Yayo | Where Are They Now? | What Happened To Him?

Tony Yayo spent a good chunk of his early life with a young 50-Cent, teaming up to rap, hustle, and generally struggle through life together on the mean streets of New York City. But when 50 finally began to hit his stride in the early 2000s, suddenly, Yayo was nowhere to be seen. Turns out, his prior criminal activities had finally caught up with him, landing him behind bars for well over a year. But 50 wouldn’t forget about the man he grew up alongside and when Yayo was finally released, he would rejoin the group he helped found in the first place -- G-Unit -- by taking his rightful place as one of the group’s longest-running members. Unfortunately, a true solo career was never really in the cards – but that hasn’t stopped Yayo from continuing to participate in the world of hip-hop behind the scenes while also capitalizing on his long and storied history in the industry. Ever wonder how Yayo went from being released from prison to finding himself back on the inside within the span of a day? Then stay tuned to our newest episode of Where Are They Now to find out all about Tony Yayo!
