Boozie Badazz knows how it feels to have to do time in the middle of your rap career.
He's periodically offered encouragement to Bobby Shmurda, who's been locked up for five years on conspiracy and weapons charges and has about another year to do. Here's Boosie's latest message:
"SOLID AS A ROCK ‼️it’s a shame how the world don’t glorify the REAL ONES SMH #freesmurda ✅‼️rats get mo love then the stand up guys," Boosie captioned a photo of Shmurda in a clear reference to Tekashi6ix9ine.
Of course, Shmurda handled his business a lot differently than singing 6ix9ine. In fact, he took extra time so his boy Rowdy Rebel could get less time.
Bobby collaborated with 6ix9ine before Tekashi became a government worker.
In a jailhouse interview earlier this year, he explained why he would never do that again.
"H*ll motherf*cking no,” Shmurda said when asked about working with 6ix9ine again. "If you from the hood, you supposed to know that. These just rappers. Don't expect nothing from them. These m-fers get everybody locked up ... They just entertainers. They ain't living what they be talking."
