Dublin —- He shot a man twice and felt so good about it, police say, a Georgia rapper wrote a song describing the shooting and calling out the victim by name.

A judge sentenced 25-year-old Rico Todriquez Wright of Dublin on Monday to spend the next 20 years in prison after his victim mentioned the hip-hop confession to police.

Chad Blue, 28, told police he had known Wright before the September 2006 shooting but they weren’t friendly. He testified companions egged Wright on as he chased and shot his victim in the thigh and groin. Later, Blue told police he recognized Wright’s voice on a CD, rapping “Chad Blue knows how I shoot.”

Wright was sentenced to 20 years for two counts of aggravated assault. He will spend another 20 years on probation.

1. Why do people have such a hard time understanding the concept of "Darwin awards."

Darwin awards are for when you either kill yourself, or neuter yourself.

4. Well, he's not likely to reproduce while he's in jail

Not a full-blown Darwin, but nonetheless an impressive case of self-sabotage.

3. Dude got shot in the groin?

I think I'd make a donation to the family of the biggest dude on his cell block for the promise of making Rico's life "difficult".
