The singer, whose mother is Mexican and father is Puerto Rican, recalled that during a previous incarceration he was in the same cell as the artist Sean “Diddy” Combs and former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez, as well as other high-profile detainees.

The rapper returned to prison where he is serving a three-month sentence after a judge determined that he violated the terms of his probation by accumulating new violent incidents and legal problems while still under judicial supervision, according to Agerpres.

This is the second time in just over a year that the rapper has been sentenced to prison for violating his probation.
