Atlanta producer Shawty Redd has officially been cleared of his murder charges.
According to MTV News, Shawty Red was cleared of the charges after a judge ruled that his life was threatened physically and verbally during an altercation with a man.
"The defense [in the trial] was clearly the self-defense...We argued that Redd's life was threatened both verbally and physically, and this occurred in his home, and that he shot this gentleman as a result of that."
Shawty Redd was originally charged with murder over a shooting, which took place during an argument inside of his Georgia residence. He was released on a $200,000 bond shortly after the incident.
Shawty Redd has worked with a handful of the industry's top artists, including Young Jeezy, Gucci mane, Snoop Dogg and more.

Kreayshawn’s “Gucci Gucci” Ghostwriter Says He Hasn’t Received Royalties
Speak, a rapper-turned-ghostwriter from Moreno Valley, California, who co-wrote Kreayshawn’s hit single “Gucci Gucci,” among others, says he still hasn’t seen any royalties for his work.
“That’s the weird thing,” he tells the L.A. Weekly about the track that got Kreay an alleged $1 million dollar deal with Columbia Records, “seeing someone become rich overnight and getting to do all the cool things that come with being a successful artist, knowing you had a part in that, but eating Spam for dinner.”
25-year-old Speak, born Anthony Negrete, has collaborated with the Oakland rapper on a number of other tracks, including “Rich Whores,” her only other release. Speak also says he taught Kreay how to count bars and “con-ceptualize and structure lines and put a filter on all the craziness.”
Hopefully, Speak will see his luck change with the release of his own album, Inside Out Boy, on November 14. The set is mixed and engineered by Odd Future’s Syd tha Kid and features production from Odd Future’s production duo the Super 3.—Gina Montana
