Sound the bells! Gucci Mane who has been incarcerated since September 2013 is finally a free man after being released from prison on Thursday.

According to TMZ, Gucci's lawyer filed a motion several months ago asserting that his client had not received proper credit for previous time served. The judge granted the request, under conditions that the rapper will live under house arrest for the next few months and receive probation after that.
