Fetty Wap has pleaded guilty to driving while intoxicated and reckless endangerment as part of a plea deal.

Wap hit court in Brooklyn Thursday and had multiple charges dropped, according toTMZ. Out of his initial 15 charges related to a November drunk drag racing incident, only two remain. He's now on the hook for a $500 fine and is required to complete 14 hours of driving education courses.

In November, Was was busted for drunk driving after police officers in New York spotted him racing another vehicle in a Mercedes. According to initial reports, Wap was driving around 100 miles per hour on a strip of highway with a speed limit of 50. Though the bulk of the counts were dropped this week, Wap was also initially hit with charges of driving without a valid license and aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle.

In January, he dropped the For My Fans 3: The Final Chapter mixtape. A video for single "Love the Way" is set to be released soon.

In a detailed Desus & Merointerview surrounding the tape's release, Wap spoke candidly about his breakout 2015 success. After losing out at the Grammys, Wap explained, he "kind of" shied away from the industry for a bit:

Fetty Wap recently wrapped his FMF Tour. King Zoo, the full-length studio follow-up to his 2015 self-titled debut, is expected later this year.
