“In The Darkest Time” EP amid legal difficulties

Quando Rondo has had a hard time staying out of trouble with the law throughout his career. Currently, the Savannah, Georgia rapper is awaiting prison time after pleading guilty in 2023 in a drug trafficking investigation. The charges included drug conspiracy and participating in criminal street gang activity. His time behind bars will be determined on December 12, according to WTOC11He currently faces a maximum of five years in prison, but it could have been 20 years had he not accepted a plea deal in addition to his guilty plea to a lesser charge of conspiracy to possess and distribute controlled substances with intent to distribute.

While Quando Rondo is out on bail, he releases a new EP, Here for a good reason: In the darkest times. Moreover, this is now another case where he dropped material for his fans during his legal dilemmas. “Cash” was the last release, but it did not make it to the list of Quando Rondo’s Here for good reason. However, “Gotta Do Better & Pray,” a single released on August 2, is on this five-song EP. During the 14-minute listen, Quando Rondo opens up about his rough childhood, how the police targeted him, and more. He even includes the iconic hook from 50 Cent's “Many Men” in “Could've Been Me.” It seems like Quando Rondo is trying to portray himself in a more positive light, but hear for yourself with the links below.
