Quando Rondo may be facing some time behind bars. On Tuesday (Aug 13), the rapper pleaded guilty to a federal drug charge in a Georgia courtroom. According to WTOC-TV, the 25-year-old, legal name Tyquian Terrel Bowman, now faces up to five years in prison.

Judge R. Stan Baker scheduled the sentencing for Dec. 12, 2024.

“I really want to give an apology to the City of Savannah,” Bowman detailed after the hearing according to the news station. “I want to give an apology to my family, friends, loved ones, [and] most of all to my daughters for taking all my family and all my loved ones through this stressful point.”

Bowman was initially taken into custody by Savannah Police in December 2023. The arrest followed an indictment for drug and gang-related charges, with accusations that he held a “manager role” in the Rollin’ 60s gang.

In July of the same year, Bowman wrecked a vehicle shortly after being released from jail on a $100,000 bond.
