In an exciting development for fans, Pooh Shiesty has been released from federal prison early after serving three years of a 63-month sentence. The Memphis rapper’s release was celebrated with a welcome home party, where he was seen enjoying the festivities, popping champagne, and flaunting stacks of cash in videos shared online.
Among those reacting to the news was Gucci Mane, who expressed his joy for his 1017 signee on Instagram. “Welcome home @poohshiesty The MainSlime is back,” he posted, accompanied by cold face emojis, signaling his excitement over Shiesty’s return.
Supporters have flooded social media with posts celebrating the “Back In Blood” artist’s freedom, reflecting a wave of enthusiasm from fans and fellow artists alike. Pooh Shiesty’s lawyer, Bradford Cohen, also shared his excitement in a statement to XXL, expressing relief at the outcome. “I am elated that Pooh has been released after 3 years,” he stated, highlighting the government’s attempts to impose a harsher sentence of 10 years, which the judge ultimately deemed inappropriate.
Cohen believes that this experience will fuel Pooh Shiesty’s comeback, saying, “I know he will come back bigger than ever and definitely learned from this experience.” He added that Pooh is eager to start the next chapter of his story, emphasizing his belief that everything happens for a reason.
Pooh Shiesty was initially released in October 2020 but faced legal troubles again in 2021 after a shooting incident at a strip club. His plea deal in 2022 for conspiring to possess firearms in connection to violent and drug-trafficking crimes led to his sentencing. His early release means he will not have to serve the full term, which would have kept him incarcerated until April 2026.
As celebrations continue, fans and fellow artists eagerly anticipate what Pooh Shiesty will do next in his career.
