Kevin Gates went from being released in Florida to jailed in Illinois.

Everybody's favorite female fan kicker Kevin Gates was expecting to be released from jail Wednesday, in Florida. Turns out, the rapper was wanted in Chicago for twice failing to appear in court on a separate gun case from 2013.

Gates already had a show scheduled after his release from a Polk County jail. The Islah emcee was put behind bars for kicking a fan at a show in the Sunshine State in 2015. TMZ reports gates was not extradited to Illinois but rather turned himself in. He had less than 24 hours of freedom in between.

The rapper is currently sitting in a cell in Cook County. According to the Tampa Bay Times, on top of the gun charges he also faces an "aggravated unlawful use of a weapon" charge. Gates was scheduled to headline the Hippie Hill festival in San Francisco on April 20.
