First, the good news: Rome Fortune has shared a highly personal new song called "Pure." It's a reworking of a (very) briefly released song of the same title, now featuring all new production by LavaDome and unfortunate new emotional gravity.

Which brings us to the bad news: this morning, Fortune turned himself into jail. "Stupid ass past caught up to me," he explained on Twitter (his PR has declined to comment further). And so the eccentric Atlanta rapper will be spending the next month at Cobb County Jail in Marietta, GA, where he says he will spend his days getting "buff af physically AND mentally" and reading your letters, should you be so inclined to write him at the address below. Till he's out, #freerome
