A Georgia inmate convicted two years ago of murdering a nightclub security guard saw the conviction overturned on Tuesday because the Peach State’s highest court ruled that a 33-second rap music video showing him waving around a handgun shouldn’t have been played for Houston County jurors.

Morgan Cardelle Baker, born in 1995, had argued through his lawyers at trial that Kobe Crawford’s — aka NoCap’s — rap music video for “Ghetto Angels” (a song viewed more than 100 million times on YouTube) should not be played in court. Still, the trial court decided the video “filmed in early 2019,” months before Tamarco Head was shot to death at Club Boss in Warner Robins on July 6, 2019, was “more probative than prejudicial” as to Baker. Baker went on to be sentenced to life in prison with the possibility of parole in February 2022.
