On April 2nd, Rapper's Poo Shyasty and Big 30 just got hit with federal charges for robbery and kidnapping in Texas. Federal officials say it all went down during an arm takeover at a Dallas Recording Studio back on January 10th. The beef was over Poo Shyasty's deal with Gucci mains 10-17 records and nine suspects allegedly stormed in to force a contract release. The help folks at gunpoint, including with an AK-style pistol, and robbed them of Rolexes, jewelry, and cash. One guy even got choked until he was almost out cold, while Big 30 supposedly blocked the door. After they bounced, some posted the stolen stuff online, which didn't help their case. Poo Shyasty, real name Lantreau Williams Jr., blew up with tracks like Back in Blood before signing with 2017 in 2021. He did five years for a gun charge in Florida, got out last October, and dropped a new single soon after. But he was on home detention, banned from new crimes or guns. Eight of the nine got nabbed this week across Memphis, Nashville, and Dallas on April 2nd.

The last one, Terrence Rogers, is still on the run. If convicted, they could all face life in prison. Authorities are calling this a clear message against using violence to settle music biz disputes, and the case is still unfolding with more details, likely coming soon.
