Keith Murray is out of the halfway house!!!

The Def Squad is once again whole.

Rapper Keith Murray was released from a Bridgeport, Connecticut, halfway house Monday (May 14) after three years' imprisonment. Murray — a member of the Def Squad with Redman and Erick Sermon — left the Maple Street House facility, where he was transferred earlier this year, and traveled to New York to be with his family, according to a source close to the rapper. The source said Murray was upbeat and eager to resume his life.

Murray, whose most recent album, It's a Beautiful Thing, was released in 1999 while he was incarcerated, has already begun to record again. He appears on "Wrong 4 Dat," a track on Redman's Malpractice, which is due in stores May 22.

Murray was convicted in 1996 of hitting a man in the head with a barstool during a 1995 nightclub brawl. He was released on bail while awaiting appeal but was sentenced to three years in prison in 1998. Murray fled authorities for a month but turned himself in in October 1998. Having always maintained his innocence, Murray filed a lawsuit for a new trial but dropped it earlier this year in exchange for having three months dropped from his sentence.

DON'T EVEN SPEAK TO ME WHEN YOU SEE ME. OS I'M A HAVE TO GET ON SOME OLE HIGH SCHOOL SHIT AND START PUNCHIN' NIGGAS IN THEY FACE JUST FOR LIVIN'" WELL THAT SKIT WAS TO ANYBODY WHO TOOK IT TO OFFENSE. ONE NIGHT I WAS AT ONYX'S SLAM VIDEO IN MANHATTAN, WHEN I SAW MR. KEITH MURPHY. HE CAME UP TO ME AND ASKED,"YO P IS THAT SKIT TOWARDS ME?" I TOLD HIM "NA, BUT IF YOU FEEL IT IS, I GUESSE IT IS" MR. KEITH MURPHY HAD NOTHING MORE TO SAY THAT NIGHT. THEN A MONTH OR SO LATER I SAW HIM IN THE TUNNLE( A POP. N.Y. CLUB) ME AND MY DOG'S WAS LIKE 50 DEEP. WE HAD RAZORS, KNIVES, ICE-PICKS, GUNS, AND MORE SHIT. ALL OF MY NIGGAS WAS LIKE "YO THERE THAT NIGGA GO RIGHT THERE DUNN, WHAT UP? LETS GET HIM," THIS WAS UP BY THE CO-ED BATHROOM. AND BECAUSE I HAD A SOFT HEART AT THE TIME, I SAID "NO, LEAVE HIM ALONE, HE'S A CLOWN." THEN THAT SAME NIGHT ME AND LIKE 3 A MY DOGS SLIDE OFF CAUSE WE HAD SOME SHIT POPPIN'. WHEN WE GET OUTSIDE I SEE MR. KEITH MURPHY AND LIKE 4 OF HIS DOGS, MY MAN MONEY NO WAS LIKE "YO LOOK" AND I SAID"FUCK THEM NIGGAS, IF THEY WANT IT LET EM' BRING IT." THEN I HEARD ONE OF HIS DOGS SAY "FUCK THAT THAT NIGGA WAS ME AND MY MAN NO JUST LOOKED AT EACH OTHER IN LAUGHTER #! CAUSE I GOT A BIG OL'9MM ON MY HIP AND #2 CAUSE THESE FAGGOT ASS NIGGAS COULD A JUST GOT LYNCHED IN THE PARTY IF I WOULD HAVE SAID THE WORD. SO ANY WAY AFTER HIS DOGS FUEL HIM UP ENOUGH, HE DESIDES TO STEP UP FRONT AND SAY "YO WHAT UP WIT THAT SHIT YOU WAS TALKIN'?" I SIMPLY RESPONDED "IF YOU WANNA FIGHT, LETS GO AROUND THE CORNER SO NOBODY, ESPECIALY THE PO-LEECE CAN BREAK IT UP." I WAS GONNA SHOOT THEY FAGGOT ASSES DOWN AS WE GOT AROUND THE CORNER. BUT AS WE WE'RE CROSSING THE STREET, A SQUAD CAR PULLED UP AND MR. KEITH MURPHY WHO MUST BE A FUCKIN' PHYSIC, DECIDES TO SNUUF ME INFONT OF THE COPS. NOW COME ON, YOU KNOW WHAT THE COPS NEXT MOVE IS GONNA BE. SO I BOATED. I'M NO DUMMIE. C.O.P. SPELLS 1 TO 3. . RED MAN A COOL DUDE AND I'M SURE ERIC IS. I'M SURE KEITH MURPHY IS. BUT IT'S BEYOND THAT SHIT ALREADY. DEATH SQUAD? WE HATE MURPHY. WE WANT HIS TEARS IN A JAR.
