Coolio pled not guilty last Friday to one felony count of cocaine possession and two misdemeanor assault charges from that time he got arrested [click here if you missed it] at LAX with crack rocks in his carry-on luggage.

Coolio is due back in court on April 20th and faces up to three years in prison if convicted.
