Beanie Sigel was found guilty today of a second probation violation for taking a trip to Atlantic City, N.J., and for being in contact with a convicted felon.

U.S. District Judge R. Barclay Surrick ordered the rapper to serve one day in federal prison and extended his probation—which was slated to end next month—by 18 months.

The first six months are to be served in a halfway house, meaning that Sigel will be unable to travel to promote his latest Roc-A-Fella album, The Solution.
