So this is what Pooh was up to….Allegedly, he and his cronies, including his father, sought to kidnap Gucci Mane to get out of a contract with 1017.

Goddamn. That’s the way these cats move now? You’re in the industry on the streets and you’re making maneuvers that ski mask cats commit? Pooh Shiesty, a young warrior fresh from the pen could boost the recidivism rate in Tennessee.

If he is convicted this time, he and his cohorts face up to life imprisonment. Goddamn. The way that he has “lossed” up instead of bossed up is a real concern.

Gucci is viewed as a victim in all of this. He has been quiet in all of this action. After authorities arrested Shiesty in Dallas, did he finally realize that he messed up? Did he have in his mind the worst case scenario? A talented young Foundational Black American (FBA) who had the spoils of living a lifestyle and a second chance on life can be known as a dumb N.

Shiest had the whole platter, money, women, fame. All of which are escaping from his grasp like wheat in a golden field. He has to be kicking himself for not doing the most crucial thing in the world: think.

He let his emotions drive him and lead him down a path of destruction. The way he incorporated his father in the mix is even more distressing.

This seems like the horrific scenes from a gangster flick. A young guy is given the opportunity of a lifetime by a boss. That same young guy flips on his leader and then makes it seem like he was in the right.

The rap world is not the streets. You can’t just mask and glove up and hold people against their will. That shouldn’t go on at all but especially not in the corporate realm. Shiesty really lived up to his name in underhandedness.

Along with fellow rapper Big30, Shiest also allegedly robbed Gucci for his jewels and money. Did he even take a moment to sit and contemplate what he was getting himself into this whole time? What did it take for him to switch off the rationality factor and go full-blown initiation of physical force?

While it’s difficult to say, it is certain that Shiesty’s chances at freedom look dim. He had spent time in prison once…did he miss the stringent order? The food? What possessed him to take into account nothing he should have learned as an inmate?

For Gucci to press charges is to show he had been robbed and kidnapped based on Shiesty and company’s vicious actions.

If anything, Shiesty should have been not careful but rational. He must now face the consequences of what he started. He ought to now convert to Islam or better yet become an atheist. Whatever it takes for him to realize the difference between right and wrong will give him greater clarity.

When it comes down to his own thoughts on the issue, he still has the chance to be represented by an attorney that will do as much as a defense lawyer can do in these circumstances. The fact still remains that Shiesty had that second chance. A boost at life, at living a great life that scores of people can only wish for in their dreams.

And then he does this. I am shaking my head as I write this sentence. Pooh Shiesty had every opportunity to be a stand up guy. How do you go from being free and making money to being broken down morally? His system of ethics seemed to never be intact. All eyes are on the court system and whether Shiest can withstand another legal proceeding.
