Boosie Badazz

Going to prison for five years could be a career killer for some artists, but for the rapper formerly known as Lil Boosie it only bolstered his legacy. After being incarcerated for drug charges in 2009, the rapper was released in 2014 amid a homegrown “Free Boosie” movement that gained him attention from the press and built hype around promised new material. Boosie apparently stayed busy while in prison, reportedly writing more than 1,000 new tracks, as well as an autobiography. Sure enough, in the years since, he’s released a steady stream of new mixtapes and albums of trunk-rattling Southern rap, all of which have only further bolstered his legacy.
