Rapper sings about firebombing rival days before committing crime on wrong home

Rapper Michael Jordan Athernought was caught on camera singing about firebombing a house, days before he would actually commit the crime.

Athernought, from Wales, who petrol-bombed a woman’s home after mistaking it for the house of his rap rival, has been jailed for almost 10 years.

His intended victim was fellow rapper Ricky Williams - also known as Chronic Official - following a rap feud.

However, he mistakenly threw the homemade explosive at the home of a woman and her teenage son on 16 November 2021.
