Ra artist John Forte is in Atlanta working in the studio with producer Dallas Austin. Celebrity photographer Prince Williams caught up with them at the Hollywood Hideout at Club VICE (formerly, Royal downtown).

How do you like Forte’s ‘Jesus’ dreads?

As you know, Forte was busted for possessing the 31 pounds of cocaine with intent to distribute and was sentenced to a minimum of 14 years in the federal pen. Forte served just under seven years in prison before his sentence was commuted by the outgoing president Bush in January.
