    Rapper Coolio's eldest son Grtis Ivey, 22, who starred with his dad in the reality show Coolio's Rules, has been sentenced to 10 years in jail for his part in an armed robbery.

    He broke into an apartment in Las Vegas last October and threatened the resident with a gun. He pleaded guilty to a charge of felony robbery earlier this year in exchange for a number of other charges being dropped.

    He is expected to serve a minimum of three years, but could end up being jailed for 10 years.
