It's taken nearly four years, but a jury in Somerset County found a Pittsburgh rapper guilty of having $50,000 worth of heroin while traveling the turnpike. 

He's a popular rapper in Pittsburgh known as S.Money. 

It's taken four years for his trial to finally go through the system, and now, his rap career will have to take a back seat to jail. 

In 2008, Khalid-Ibn Kareem was one of four men in a suburban that was pulled over by a sergeant with the Pennsylvania State Police. 

The sergeant is now retired, but he described what happened when he pulled the SUV over. 

"None of them had driver's licenses. There was an odor of a citrus smell coming from the vehicle. I requested a consent to search... got that," Anthony DeLuca said.

He brought in a K-9 unit. 

Kareem had 2000 stamp bags of heroin inside that car, which had a street value of $50,000.

"In this case Mr. Khalid Kareem's fingerprints were on two of the bags. His excuse was they were just bags but didn't know how the heroin got inside, but he may have touched the bags the heroin was in," DeLuca said.

Kareem is from Pittsburgh and known for his rapping career. 

"All he talks about is drugs; how he's selling drugs and how he's basically polluting the western Pennsylvania area with his drugs," DeLuca said.

While police believe he was transporting the heroin back to Pittsburgh, they said it would have eventually made its way back into Somerset and Cambria Counties. 

"The market place sends them here. They set up shop and you can get just about anything from anywhere," District Attorney Lisa Lazzari-Strasiser said. 

After four years of delay and deliberation, both are happy this case is closed. 

"It's up to the people to find these people guilty. I'd like to thank the jurors. They did a wonderful job. We won, and Mr. Kareem or S.Money lost," DeLuca added.

"I just felt that it had to go through the system. If he wasn't willing to plead to a felony, we had to try it, so I'm glad it's done," Lazzari-Strasiser said.

Kareem is back on the streets of Pittsburgh until his pre-sentencing.

He could be facing a minimum of four years in prison.

The other three men are finishing up their time served.
