However, in his final moments of power Trump has decided to commute the sentences of 70 individuals and pardon 73 people, according to a statement from the White House.
Among them are rappers Lil Wayne and Kodak Black.
Lil Wayne, whose real name is Dwayne Michael Carter Jr., was "granted a full pardon" after he pled guilty to possession of a firearm and ammunition "by a convicted felon, owing to a conviction over 10 years ago."
Another rapper that received a pardon was Kodak Black, whose actual name is Bill K. Kapri.
Black was sentenced to 46 months in jail after he falsified a statement on a federal document, according to the statement.
