UPDATE (Sept. 16): Contrary to previous reports, Desiigner will not have to register as a sex offender. The Brooklyn rapper's attorney, Ryan Garry, told People, that both prosecutors and his defense attorneys have agreed that his misdemeanor conviction [of obscenely and indecently exposed genitalia in a public place] doesn't warrant him to register as a sex offender.

"Since this was a federal misdemeanor, the sentencing judgement states that if the State of California or some other government entity requires that Mr. Selby [Desiigner] must register as a sex offender, then he must," Garry told the publication.

"However, the parties in this case have come to the legal conclusion, after significant research and consultation with lawyers in California, that this misdemeanor conviction is not one that will cause Mr. Selby [Desiigner] to have to register as a sex offender," he continued. "If some government agency in California disagrees with our analysis, then we will address the matter at that point in time."
