Prodigy’s publicist today (January 8) confirmed to Sixshot.com that the Mobb Deep frontman has thirty more days on the street before he begins serving a 3 ½ year sentence for weapon possession.

As reported earlier, Prodigy plead guilty to criminal possession of a loaded gun last November as part of a plea deal and was handed the aforementioned sentence.  He was slated to begin his sentence tomorrow (January 9).

“Prodigy has been granted a one month adjournment before he begins his 3 ½ year sentence for weapon possession,” Prodigy’s publicist, Jackie O., told Sixshot.com.  “He'll begin his sentence on February 13th.”

Prodigy had recently wrapped up work on his sophomore album titled H.N.I.C 2 which is scheduled for release in March via Voxonic Music.

The set, which will feature production from Alchemist and Havoc, will be released in 1,400 languages including Spanish, German and French.

Late last month, Prodigy talked to Sixshot about his career, his upcoming album and looming jail sentence.  Read the interview HERE.
