Atlanta based Yung Joc is, I am told, a rapper or should that be wrapper, given the handgun and armor piercing ammo found concealed in his luggage recently? Initially denying any knowledge of the 'extras' in his luggage, Yung Joc was released on $50,000 bond and scheduled for a court appearance.

Now you would think, wouldn't you, that given this amazing stroke of luck, Joc would have dressed smartly and arrived promptly at the court hearing. Nope - he was delayed, apparently due to family obligations, and arrived for his scheduled Wednesday morning appearance on Wednesday afternoon.

The judge, needless to say, was less than impressed and has scheduled another court appearance for 25 January.

Given that the concealed weapon charge carries a potential 18-month prison term, it seems that Yung Joc's million seller "It's Goin' Down" may have been prophetically titled.
