In 1999, just as he was set to release his album, ”Life Teaches and Reality Bites,” Mysonne was convicted of two armed robberies and sentenced to 14 years in prison.

Linen spent seven years in prison and was released in 2006. To this day, he maintains his innocence, however, Linen still had to serve years in prison. Prosecutors offered him a plea deal – 5 years in prison. But, Linen didn’t want to accept time for a crime he didn’t commit.

When asked about how much time he spent writing music when he was in prison, Mysonne said:

”I spent all my time writing music inside. My routine was: I get up in the morning, I go work out for about an hour, come back, read a book, after I read, I got a little beat tape, and I was gone from there.”

Linen later added:

”Mostly I just listened to beats, ’cause I don’t even listen to half these dudes who rap no more.”

When asked about the first thing he did when he got out of prison, Linen replied:

”First thing I did, honestly? I went to a barbershop. In prison, you have the worst barbers in the world. I have been cutting my hair for the last couple of years, so I just got tired and I let it grow for like two or three months.”

Mysonne continued:

”Right after the barbershop, I went home to see my little brother. He greeted me in front of the building with a basketball.”

In 2017, he made noise for putting Troy Ave’s Breakfast Club interview on blast and calling the self-proclaimed “Nu Pac” a “Bozo.” Mysonne said:

“I’ve been in a situation where I was around him when he said things that were totally dis-supporting to anything that I felt was real. So I said to myself, ‘This ain’t somebody I will call on. This is somebody I have to call out and say this ain’t real.’”

Linen later added:

“My statements were that he was a bozo. I was so outraged just watching the interview because this man almost lost his life, this man is fighting for his life, this man is going to court facing real charges.”
