The man in question of stealing Beyoncé’s unreleased music, Kelvin Evans, pleaded guilty on Tuesday, May 12, according to reports from 11 Alive. This comes after unreleased music recorded by Beyoncé was stolen from members of her team while she was in Atlanta on tour last year.
A jury trial was set to take place, but instead, Evans took a plea offer from prosecutors after previously rejecting deals. He was facing up to six years in prison, but with the deal accepted by the judge, he was given two years.
After being arrested in September 2025, Evans will get credit for time served. However, 11 Alive reports that he also had a previous parole violation and more than six other car break-in cases that were revealed in court on Tuesday, which makes how much jail time he has to serve unclear.
