Louisiana rapper Lil Boosie was expected to walk out of prison sometime this month but that look like it won’t happen.
Initial reports suggest that Lil Boosie would be released from prison the day before Valentine’s Day, but Jeff Weiss, who interviewed the rapper, broke news on Twitter saying the date has been pushed back.
NEWS: Lil Boosie Prison Release Date Set For February
This is what Wiess wrote on Twitter:
Just received confirmation that Boosie will not be getting out of jail next week. However, his release is imminent — most likely in March.

A parole board hearing was scheduled for Boosie next week but was canceled, because it didn't make sense considering his release is so soon.

Boosie still has to finish up some classes & then his release date will be officially re-calculated — tentatively, he'll be home in March.

In 2009 Lil Boosie was slapped with a marijuana offense charge and violating his probation. Authorities say the “Top To The Bottom” rapper smuggled marijuana into prison.
He pleaded guilty to the charge and was sentenced to 8 years in prison.
