Pooh Shiesty & His Dad Just Got Arrested by the FBI
The feds just came for rapper Pooh Shiesty—and his dad’s going down with him. The Memphis artist, whose real name is Lontrell D. Williams Jr., was arrested Wednesday in Dallas, Texas by the FBI in connection with a federal criminal case, according to TMZ. His father was also taken into custody.
Details about the charges are still under wraps, but law enforcement sources confirmed the arrests went down this week. Pooh Shiesty, who blew up with hits like “Back in Blood,” has had a complicated relationship with the law before. This one’s hitting different though—federal charges are no joke.
The rapper’s team hasn’t issued a statement yet, and we’re waiting to hear more about what exactly the feds are alleging. But yeah, this is a massive moment for the artist who’s been one of hip-hop’s rising names over the past few years.
