Hip-hop pioneer ‘Slick Rick’ pardoned by governor

And I say it’s about damn time!

Pioneering rapper Ricky “Slick Rick” Walters, who spent more than five years in prison on a 1991 attempted murder conviction and faced threats of deportation years after rehabilitating his life, was granted a full and unconditional pardon Friday by New York Gov. David Paterson.

“This has been a long and difficult road and I am happy for this to be settled once and for all,” Walters said. “I look forward to enjoying this time with my family and friends and to continue leading an honest and productive life.”

Finally, one half of our inspiration is free to live his life without limitations.

La Di Fuckin’ Da Di!
