Rapper Pooh Shiesty Catches 63 Month Prison Bid After Guilty Plea
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Paras Griffin / Getty Pooh Sheisty is taking an extended, involuntary vacation. After pleading to guilty to gun charge in lieu of going to trial, the Memphis rapper received a 63-month prison sentence. The kicker is that Pooh was looking at more than the 5 years he agreed to. Reports TMZ: Pooh, whose real name is Lontrell Williams, was facing more than 8 years in prison, if prosecutors got their way — but his attorney, Bradford Cohen, tells TMZ … the government’s calculations were off. Cohen says they asked for no more than 63 months, which is exactly what the judge gave him. Pooh was busted for an October 2020 shootout involving himself and several other men. The incident went down in a Miami-area condo parking lot … and it left 2 men injured. Repor...

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Prince Williams / Getty Earlier this summer it was reported that Pooh Shiesty was arrested for an armed robbery and shooting that went down at Bay Harbor Islands hotel in Florida, and now it seems like he’s facing quite a lengthy prison sentence for his actions.

Initially Pooh and his co-defendants had asked for their October trial to be pushed to December stating that they needed more time to get their defense together, which was granted. But when the feds said tha...

Pooh Shiesty To Remain Behind Bars After Judge Revokes His Bond [Video]
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Prince Williams / Getty One of Hip-Hop’s rising stars might not have the bright future he had hoped for. A judge has revoked Pooh Shiesty’s bond thus mandating him to remain in jail. Things are not looking good for the New 1017 Records talent. On Tuesday, June 8 the “Back In Blood” rapper surrendered himself to court to face charges that claim he participated in a shooting at the King Of Diamonds gentlemen’s club in Miami during Memorial Day weekend. He faced Judge Venzer, the same magistrate he saw for his 2020 shooting case, who apparently did not take this second appearance lightly as she did the first.

Rapper Pooh Shiesty Arrested For Shooting King of Diamonds Security Guard, Allegedly
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Paras Griffin / Getty Pooh Shiesty is getting more press for his social media and legal struggle than his actual music.

#BRUHNews: Pooh Shiesty And Kodak Black Are Going At Each Other Over The Money Spread Pose
Source: (Photo by Johnny Louis/FilmMagic) / (Photo by Johnny Louis/FilmMagic) Have you ever wondered if rappers have too much time on their hands? Kodak Black and Pooh Shiesty are proving they clearly do. As spotted on HipHopDX the two performers are in the midst of a war of words; or rather social media posts. Apparently the man now known as Bill Kapri felt in a ways about the “Back In Blood” MC. In a recent post Kodak seemingly took a swipe at him by using his signature “blrrrd” adlib and claiming some of his peers are swagger jacking his “money spread” pose. Naturally this got back to the 1017 Records talent prompting him to respond to the veiled shot in a post and delete. “This shit here so lame too me lost all my respect @kodakblack,” he wrote. Kodak quickly retorted in typical Kodak ...
