Lil Boosie Hopes Jail Time Will Boost His Career

Baton Rogue, Louisiana rapper Lil Boosie spoke to AllHipHop.com about his upcoming 10 month jail sentence for gun and marijuana possession charges.
Lil Boosie, born Torrence Hatch, was arrested in October of 2008, after police found a gun, a bag of marijuana and a cigar loaded with marijuana.

Boosie, who recently released his album Superbad: The Return of Boosie Bad Azz, is scheduled to be sentenced to 10 months in prison on November 9.

“It’s just a minor setback,” Lil Boosie told AllHipHop.com. “I am not even a convicted felon and they are giving me time.”

Boosie, 25, originally faced a 10-sentence because of the gun and the fact that it was his third time for being arrested for possession of marijuana.

Upon his release, he will be placed on active supervised probation for two-to-five years. Once his probation is successfully completed, the gun charge will be dropped from Lil Boosie’s record.
