Sexyy Red is ready to roll out the red carpet for Big Meech who was released from prison yesterday.
The Black Mafia Family co-founder is not yet in a position to accept the St. Louis rapper’s offer, but he will certainly keep it in mind as he gets ready to reintegrate back into a very different society than the one he left in 2008. Big Meech, real name Demetrius Flenory, was released from a federal prison on Wednesday, October 16, 2024, and was reportedly transferred to a halfway house.
Flenory served nearly 20 years in prison after being convicted of running one of the largest criminal enterprises in the United States. After several court filings to reduce his 30-year sentence, Big Meech was given a big reprieve earlier this year when a judge shaved 32 months off his sentence paving the way for an early release. He was initially looking at a 2028 release, but that was drastically reduced to January 2025, which means he could serve out the remaining months at a halfway house in Florida.
“I’m overjoyed that Demetrius Flenory is finally free after nearly 20 years behind bars,” Big Meech attorney, Brittany K. Barnett, said in a statement via Hot 97. “Two decades is an incredibly long time, and it’s been inspiring to witness the power of hope and resilience. He used his time in prison to focus on personal growth and transformation, and now he has the opportunity to begin a new chapter.”
In the meantime, the hip-hop industry has been reacting to Big Meech’s release from prison. Sexyy Red’s comment about the matter has since gone viral. “Where da welcome home party @ I’m trona perform for da freeski,” she wrote on X.
Red is clearly very happy for Meech’s release from behind bars. The BMF co-founder became a staple in hip-hop after expanding his operation to Atlanta with his brother. Certainly, there will be a huge welcome party lined up for him with names like 50 Cent and Jeezy, who are big supporters of his. You can add Sexyy Red to the roster. She was just 10 years old when Meech was sentenced to service decades in prison.
