Earlier this year, Desiigner managed to make headlines when he was caught masturbating on an airplane. Shortly after the news broke, he took to social media to apologize. He appeared to be taking responsibility, attributing the situation to his poor mental health at the time. "I am ashamed of my actions that happened on that plane," he told fans. "Mental health is real guys, please pray for me." He also claimed to be taking steps towards improving his mental state, including therapy.
It was later reported that Desiigner would be entering a guilty plea for indecent exposure. It would leave him serving the recommended two years of probation. He would also pay a $5K fee, do community service, drug-testing, and publicly apologize to plane staff. Now, it's been revealed that on top of those conditions, Desiigner will have to register as a sex offender. This could obviously have a pretty significant impact on his life, affecting where he's able to live, his relationships, and more.

Ahead of his guilty plea, it was revealed that Desiigner's legal team would be asking the judge to hold back on travel restrictions, so that he could continue to perform. His team claimed that he was planning to tour in the next couple of years, and was putting his entire "heart and soul" into his new material. He's dropped a few singles in the past few months, even broaching the subject of mental health on his May release, "Timmy Turner 2." This summer he also released "Mafia Water" and "Young N Ballin."
Last month, Desiigner appeared to admit to violating the terms of his pre-trial release in legal documents obtained by TMZ. The performer reportedly failed to show up for drug-testing, and didn't show his probation officer any proof that he was actually attending counseling sessions.
