Rapper Blueface recently made headlines by calling into L.A.’s Effective Immediately radio show from jail, where he provided updates on his legal situation and addressed ongoing tensions with fellow rapper Soulja Boy. Speaking with hosts DJ Hed and Gina Views, the 27-year-old artist began by discussing his recent sentencing. Blueface explained that he received a four-year sentence but, with credit for time served, he expects to serve approximately a third of that time. He speculated on a release around March or April, emphasizing that he is adapting well to his current environment.
During the conversation, Blueface delved into his mental health and daily life behind bars. He described his time in jail as a “little break from responsibility,” showcasing his ability to adjust to challenging circumstances. The Thotiana hitmaker painted a picture of his routine, which includes watching TV, eating snacks, and staying connected through phone calls. His nonchalant attitude towards his incarceration highlights his resilience, although it contrasts with the gravity of his legal troubles.
The radio call also reignited his feud with Soulja Boy, a rivalry that has been simmering for months. Blueface called out Soulja Boy, recalling a promise for a physical confrontation and noting Soulja’s social media taunts following his sentencing. This feud has further intensified with the involvement of legal matters, as Soulja Boy’s girlfriend, Jacklyn Martinez, filed a $10 million defamation lawsuit against Blueface earlier this year. The call served as a platform for Blueface to not only update fans on his situation but also to assert his stance in the ongoing conflict with Soulja Boy.
