Boosie Badazz’s sentencing for his gun-related charges has been postponed until January 9, after originally being scheduled for November 21. The rapper requested the delay, which was granted on Friday, November 14.
During an appearance on The Breakfast Club the same day, Boosie expressed unwavering confidence that he would not be returning to prison, despite prosecutors recommending a 24-month sentence.
“I’m confident like a muthafucka,” he told the show’s hosts. “I ain’t going to jail. I don’t speak that out my mouth. I’m from down South. Your word, your mouth, is a powerful source.”
Boosie emphasized that the final decision rests with the judge and a higher power. “It’s still up to the judge,” he said. “It’s up to God, but it’s up to the judge. You know, people saying, ‘He gotta do two years.’ That’s not a fact of this case. It’s up to the judge what the judge wanna do. I’m confident, man. I’m chin up, chest high.”
Despite his confidence, the rapper admitted he is preparing for all possible outcomes. He noted that his current legal situation is more favorable than some of his past experiences. “I don’t have a judge that hates me this time,” Boosie explained. “I’ve always had judges that crucified me.”
In a related development, Boosie previously hired lobbyists to seek a presidential pardon. Reports in October revealed that the rapper engaged J.M. Burkman & Associates, led by lobbyists Jack Burkman and Jacob Whol, with the stated goal of pursuing a pardon from former President Donald Trump.
Boosie had also made a public plea on X, addressing Trump directly. “Trump CHECK MY CASE OUT MY CASE WAS DISMISSED BUT BIDENS DOJ RECHARGED ME WITH THE SAME GUN CHARGE… PRESIDENT TRUMP, I ALREADY WAS GIVEN A 10 YEAR SENTENCE N STATE IN 2009 FOR 3rd offense MARIJUANA…I NEVER WAS EVEN OFFERED REHAB STRAIGHT TO PRISON,” Boosie wrote.
He added, “N TRUMP IM BOOSIE IM A RAPPER/ FILMMAKER FROM BATON ROUGE. I WAS TARGETED… MY MOUTH N THINGS I STAND ON GET ME N ALOT SHIT BUT IM REAL! My lawyer MEGHAN BLANCO can explain this case. She knew the charges against me were bad; she even spoke about it on radio.”
