An aspiring Atlanta rapper who wrote a song about shooting a man was sentenced  to 20 years behind bars today (November 19).

According to The Associated Press, 25-year-old Rico Todriquez Wright shot Chad Blue in the thigh and the groin in September 2006 and recorded a song about the incident.

Wright reportedly rapped on a song saying  "Ask Chad Blue, he knows how I shoot."

Blue, 28, testified that he had known Wright before the shooting but they weren't  friendly. He also revealed that Wright was egged on by his friends during the shooting.

Wright was sentenced to 20 years for two counts of aggravated assault. He will spend another 20 years on probation.
