Since Bobby Shmurda's long-awaited release from prison earlier this week, the culture has been a joyous, celebratory state. The Brooklyn rapper spent the last six years of his life behind bars due to gang charges, and after years of speculation that he may be granted early parole, Bobby Shmurda was finally released from prison on Tuesday morning. Now, the "Hot N****" rapper is enjoying life as a free man and easing back into the public eye.
According to breaking news from today, it looks like Bobby has yet another reason to celebrate.
