Motown has sent out a press release promoting the fact that its new female rap artist Penelope Jones is “a convicted felon who served 33 months in federal prison for drug conspiracy.”
The release also plugs her Feb. 18 appearance on Fox’s America’s Most Wanted, during an episode dedicated to tracking down the murderer of her brother Tony.
Jones says in the release: “Growing up with my family was chaotic because (her mother, aunts and uncles) were all hustlin’ at one time or another.”
According to the statement, Jones received her GED while in prison, completed college courses and eventually became a certified personal fitness instructor. The press release, however, does not mention an album release date, nor any specific musical information.
