A plea deal in 50 Cent's latest legal rap looks set to keep the rapper out of jail - as long as he behaves himself.

The In Da Club hitmaker was charged with assault and battery after allegedly trampling two women and punching a third during a concert last year, and has accepted a court-imposed deal to stay a free man. Prosecutors in Springfield, Massachusetts have told 50, real name Curtis Jackson, that the charges against him will be dropped in two years time if he stays drug free and follows other orders between now and then.

The incident occurred during a surprise concert at Springfield's Hippodrome club last May, in which Jackson allegedly jumped into a crowd after someone threw or squirted water at him. The three women were left injured by his rash act.

It shouldn't be difficult for 50 to uphold his part in the plea deal - he claimed in an interview last month that he never takes drugs after seeing what they did to former clients when he was a Queens, New York drug dealer.
