Philadelphia, Pennsylvania native Dwight Grant aka hip hop rap artist Beanie Sigel, finds himself behind bars again.

This past Friday, a federal judge in Philadelphia ruled the hip hop star had broken more probation rules by giving authorities false urine samples, and he was locked down in jail again for three months.

This comes about after the hip hop rapper was caught giving his probation officers fake urine samples.

Hip Hop star Sigel had been living in a halfway house for the last three months as part of his sentence following a second probation violation.

Officials also claimed the hip hop rapper Sigel, had failed five drug tests in March (08) alone, testing positive on all occasions for anxiety drug Xanax and pain reliever Percocet.

This latest legal problem for Sigel follows a succession of legal problems, which have seen him serve time for weapons and drug charges. He was acquitted of attempted murder charges in 2005.
