Gucci Mane Seeks Rehab For Cough Syrup Addiction After Twitter Meltdown
If you haven't dipped your toes into the suspiciously warm waters of the Twitterverse recently, you may have missed Gucci Mane going Scorched Earth on the entire music industry a week and a half ago.
A few highlights:
"Me and waka f#ck nikki minaj dats nothing."
"So nikki I didnt have u in atl for 2 weeks room rate 60 a night?"
"Ask ciara did she ride dat bike 4 gucci in cali while she was with 50 ask kelly did she c#m to patchwork and onyx while she was wit shaka."
"Had a 3 sum wit keyshia and a white girl ask coach k. N Orlando."
After pissing off d*mn near everybody, Gucci took a break from Twitter. He has finally returned to apologize and say that he has been addicted to lean (a type of cough syrup containing promethazine) for over 10 years. Guwop has checked himself into rehab in an attempt to kick the habit.
Woke up the other day out this hospital bed & I'm so embarrassed & ashamed of my behavior that was brought to my attention. (Cont)

I'm addicted to lean & that shit ain't no joke. I can barely remember all the things I've done & said. However there's no excuse. (Cont)
The Trap House 3 rapper is currently incarcerated but claims that he's checking into rehab as soon as he is released.
I'm currently incarcerated but I will be going to rehab because I need help. I wanna thank everyone that has stood by me (cont)
