Isley Brothers frontman Ronald "Mr. Biggs" Isley has been sentenced to three years and a month in prison for tax evasion.
Isley, who was facing up to 26-years in prison, was convicted last year on five counts of tax evasion in Nov. of 2005.
The 65-year-old singer was paid millions of dollars in performance fees between 1997 and 2002 without paying taxes.
The R&B legend, labeled a "serial tax avoider," also cashed royalty checks belonging to his brother O'Kelly Isley, and put a yacht and homes in his wife's name to avoid paying taxes.
In addition to the prison time, Isley, who has been paying down his debt to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), was also ordered to pay $3.1 million dollars to the government.
Defense attorney's for Isley unsuccessfully argued that the death of two of the singer's accountants prevented him from paying taxes during the five-year period in question.
Isley is expected to serve his time in a prison hospital, due to complications from a 2004 stroke he suffered in London and his battle with kidney cancer.
Ron Isley, along with the Isley Brothers launched their careers in the mid-50's and have been releasing albums almost every year since.
As Mr. Biggs, Isley collaborated with various rappers, including Snoop Dogg, Lil' Kim.
In May 2006, The Isley Brothers released their latest album, Baby Makin' Music. Comment! (0) | Recommend! | Categories: HIP HOP NEWS [t] ALLHIPHOP NEWS:Peedi Peedi Preparing New Album Under Def Jam, Talks Roots Collaboration Sunday. 9.3.06 7:31 pm By Alexis Jeffries and Nolan Strong

Rapper Peedi Peedi, formerly known as Peedi Crakk, is preparing to release his new single "Take Me Home," featuring labelmate Megan Rochell.
The song is the first from his upcoming as-yet-untitled album, due in 2007.
"[It's] a hot little single for the clubs," Peedi Crakk told AllHipHop.com. "My album is finished. I just talked to [Jay-Z], and we're about to send the single out."
Peedi, 27, (born Pedro Zayas) will release his album under Def Jam after previously being signed as an artist on Roc-A-Fella.
The new disc will feature collaborations with Jay-Z, Bun B, Twista and Ne-Yo, among others.
"This isn't going to be [anything] that gets looked over," said the North Philadelphian. "This album is going to make a real impact."
In the meantime, Peedi is currently featured on the Roots' "Long Time," a track on their recently released album Game Theory.
The rapper will also support the group on an international tour starting in December.
Though Peedi said he was not aware of rumors that he could become the latest member of the Roots, he said he would welcome the opportunity.
"If they were willing to pull me in, I'd be more than happy to rock with the Roots," he said. "I'm always going to be a solo artist but who would turn that opportunity down? I wouldn't. It's unbelievable to even be on the Roots album."
Peedi, a former member of Beanie Sigel's rap collective State Property, signed with Def Jam after a rough split with Roc-A-Fella's former co-owner Damon Dash.
The Def Jam deal took place after a chance meeting between Peedi's Philadelphia-based attorney Bernie Resnick, ESQ, who negotiated the contract.
"Me and Jay see eye-to-eye so I trust his judgment on a lot of things," said Peedi. "With Dame Dash, there was a lot of friction going on. Every time we talked, there was an argument about s**t. But, when me and Jay talk, we come eye-to-eye on a lot of s**t, and that's a positive thing when you and the boss agree upon certain s**t in your career."
Peedi is also launching his own record label, Intense Prince, which will release the Philadelphia based-group Men of Respect and produces "more street, and more unsensored" Hip-Hop, he said.
"That's just all my radical music that I want to make," he added. "With Def Jam, you got to stick to the script because they need records that they can market and promote. As opposed to that mainstream music that they're looking for, I've got a whole different level of music that I'm making." Comment!

Rap pioneer Kurtis Blow is taking his Hip-Hop Church America on the road for a concert in Southern California.
The Harlem-based initiative will hold a concert from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. Oct. 21 at the Crystal Cathedral in Garden Grove, California.
Blow will headline the event, which takes place at the Cathedral's grass lawn and includes performances from 2Five, Eastwood, Takim and TraCee.
DJ Battlecat will be featured in the 2Five and Eastwood sets.
The event's host, Bobby Schuller, believes the concert will offer a chance to reach out to area youth who "have gotten on the wrong path in life, living in a nihilistic, post-modern survival mode as perpetuated by some of their Hip-Hop heroes."
"By bringing Hip-Hop Church America here, we're showing that Hip-Hop can be both cool and fun, but also have a positive message," Schuller said.
Schuller isn't the only one who believes in Hip-Hop Church America.
Michael Nason, president and co-founder of Newport Beach-based The Machine Productions, is developing Hip-Hop Church America into a national TV show.
The Machine Productions is a multimedia entertainment company that provides audio and visual entertainment to a diverse, international consumer group.
Nason, a Hip-Hop Church America executive producer, has produced, promoted and bought airtime for Schuller's "Hour of Power" show for close to 30 years.
The show is broadcast weekly to more than 15 million people worldwide.
With the growth of the Southern California Hip-Hop scene, Schuller feels hip-hop can help with his role in the church of "integrating emerging world views and cultures into our ministry." Comment! (0) | Recommend! | Categories: HIP HOP NEWS [t] |
