Jeezy Pleads Not Guilty to Weapons Charge, Out of Jail on Bail: 'Seen It All' Rapper Court Date Set for September 5

Jeezy and five members of his entourage were arrested earlier this week in relation to a shooting that occurred backstage at a Khalifa concert on Aug. 24. After a 38-year-old man was killed, cops searched Jeezy's tour bus and found an AK-47, which stemmed illegal gun charges for the rapper and his friends. Now, all six men have pleaded not guilty, according to Rolling Stone.

Bail was set for $1 million, and despite the high price tag, Jeezy posted the money.

As MTV reports, Jeezy and the five members of his entourage posted the bail last night (Aug. 28) and would "be out shortly."

Jeezy may or may not be a suspect in the Aug. 24 death; it's unclear what a motive would have been or whether or not the illicit weapon was connected to the shooting.

Luckily for Jeezy (and investigators), the rapper was being cooperative with authorities.

The weapons charge and arrest comes at a very inconvenient time for Jeezy. The rapper's seventh studio album Seen It All: The Autobiography is due for release on Tuesday, Sept. 2. It also comes in the middle of his commitment at the Under the Influence tour, which cancelled a concert on Sunday following the incident.

Jeezy's court date is set for Sept. 5.
