He couldn't take the rap!
A British burglar broke out of jail to escape the incessant hip-hop music being blasted in his wing.
Robert Stevens, 58, just couldn't stand having to listen to Eminem, Jay Z and Kanye West being played over and over again.
So he climbed over a security wall at the minimum security HMP Leyhill prison, in south Gloucestershire, and fled.
The fugitive, serving six-and-a-half years for commercial robberies in the area, then spent 20 days at large.
He was finally caught while visiting a betting shop on Mar. 29, reports the South Cotswolds Gazette.
"He was in a very noisy wing where rap music was being played day and night," his defense lawyer Jamie Porter told Dorchester Crown Court.
"He was also being constantly pestered to purchase drugs by younger cellmates. Stevens has apologized for his behavior. It was an impulsive act on his part," he added.
Judge Roger Jarvis sentenced Stevens to an extra 10 months behind bars.
