B.G., a founding member of the popular ’90s rap group Hot Boys, was released from prison Tuesday (Sept. 6) after serving 12 years for gun possession & witness tampering.
Cash Money founder Birdman was on Instagram Live when he greeted his New Orleans comrade with a big hug, welcoming him home. He also came bearing gifts & B.G. was overwhelmed with emotions upon his release.
In 2009, B.G. was arrested during a traffic stop where cops discovered 3 guns inside his vehicle, with 2 of them stolen. 2 years later, he entered a guilty plea deal for 2 counts of firearm possession & 1 count of conspiracy to obstruct justice. He received a 14-year federal prison sentence.
This past weekend, B.G. celebrated his 43rd birthday on Instagram, signaling his upcoming status as a free man. “After 12 winters and 13 summers, I see the end zone. It’s my last Birthday being buried alive. This year I’m celebrating the whole Virgo cycle, matter of fact, from this year forward I’m living & celebrating like everyday is #MyBIRTHDAY,” he wrote.
“The main focus, is to stay focused,” the post continued. “I’m not letting nobody rob me of my productivity, prosperity, positivity & peace of mind. My dreams then got bigger & my vision is clearer. 13 years was more then enough time for me to change the reckless path I was on.”
B.G. helped construct The Hot Boys in the late ’90s, which featured Lil Wayne, Juvenile & Turk. The crew enjoyed success with their 1999 platinum album Guerrilla Warfare, which peaked at No. 5 on the Billboard 200 & spawned the breakout hits “I Need a Hot Girl” & “We on Fire.” B.G.’s biggest win came from his fourth album, 1999’s Chopper City in the Ghetto, which birthed the phrase “Bling Bling.”
