A jury in Cincinnati last month convicted 34-year-old Hosea Thomas (right) of murder, felonious assault and illegally having a gun after a felony conviction.
Philant Johnson died in May 2006 during a running gun battle on Interstate 75 that followed a T.I. concert in Cincinnati. Three others were injured.
The rap star, whose real name is Clifford Harris, took the stand during Thomas' trial and said he believed the shots fired at his entourage were really meant for him.
The Grammy-winning rapper was not hurt.

I heard about Philant's death while I was in Africa and it really saddened me. Some have speculated that his death was the reason why T.I amassed such big weapons in case they tried to kill him too! Mmmm......Wanna know how sad it is, check out Philant's funeral here and viewing. He was a real cool guy. Imagine, the guy on the left is his brother named...."Pardon" Thomas. There will be no pardon till Hosea is 100 years old meaning he may just die in jail!
