Based on the new criminal charges for the rapper Diddy, a new study by The Stock Dork compared criminal records of popular rappers to identify the ones who spent the longest time in prison. The study takes into account charges that were brought against the artists as well as time spent in prison. The information about their age, net worth and number of Instagram followers is used as additional context. All data is collected from open sources like Reuters, Forbes and Instagram.

The rapper who spent most time in prison is Remy Ma, who served 6 years for assault, illegal weapon possession and attempted coercion. She was released in 2014 and since then built a big fanbase, totalling 10.7 million followers on Instagram. Compared to other rappers in the ranking, she has a smaller net worth of $4 million.

Suge Knight takes second place in the ranking of the rappers who spent the most time behind bars, with similar six years.
