Rapper TI has been sentenced to one year and one day in jail after he pleaded guilty to three charges of possessing illegal weapons.

The star, whose real is name Clifford Harris, will have between 30 and 60 days to report to prison.

He has already completed 1,000 hours of community service, which has included warning young people about the dangers of guns, drugs and violence.

Harris pleaded guilty last March after he was arrested in 2007.

The arrest happened close to where he had been expected to headline the BET Hip-Hop Awards in Atlanta.

He had been attempting to buy unregistered machine guns.
