Pooh Shiesty shared an update for fans from behind bars.
On Thursday (Aug. 14), the “Back in Blood” rapper posted a series of photos and a lengthy note. Shiesty has been in prison since 2022 after pleading guilty to a firearm conspiracy charge.
“Aye mane say mane that’s how you walk that lil t down,” he wrote in the caption. “S/O to all the ones who counted me down and not out, the support and love i received on this roller-coaster is unmatched, S/O to all the good men i stomped the yard with like chris brown.”
“S/O to the other selected few rappers who name hold weight in these fed walls. Dear streets, use me as a example of what ‘keeping it solid and standing on wax’ look like. now nobody can fool you or tell you different, Ain never going, Ain never went! i stamp it! im rich as i ever been lit as i ever been! IF YOUN FEEL ME k1ll ME ! #TheBiggestGetBack.”
In April 2022, the 25-year-old received a prison sentence of five years and three months in connection to an alleged armed robbery at a Florida hotel. The rapper was accused of shooting 28-year-old Brandon Cooper in October 2020, when he allegedly met up with the victim to purchase marijuana and sneakers.
In January 2022, Shiesty also pleaded guilty to a federal count of conspiring to possess firearms in furtherance of crimes of violence and drug trafficking in connection with a shooting and an assault both alleged to have taken place in 2020. Following his sentence, he will be on supervised release for a three-year period.
This isn’t the first time Shiesty has spoken out while incarcerated. In October 2023, he shared a message to his fans, saying he represented “the ones aint neva fold” and also calling out “rats.”
