Chief Keef      

Chicago rapper Chief Keef was put in jail yesterday after a Cook County juvenile court judge ruled that the 17-year-old rapper had violated his probation, the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Keef was sentenced to 18 months of probation last January after he was convicted of aggravated unlawful use of a weapon for pointing a gun at Chicago police officers. Although terms of his probation included requiring him to stay away from guns, Keef (real name: Keith Cozart) last summer did a video interview with Pitchfork at a New York shooting range, where he also spent 20 minutes firing a semiautomatic rifle. The video has since been taken down.
