The trap rapper walked free early morning April 4. OJ da Juiceman is out of custody after spending weeks behind bars for allegedly pointing a gun at a Georgia State Patrol officer. His manager says new music is dropping immediately.
Authorities claim the rapper was driving erratically on a Georgia highway, tailgating and weaving through traffic. The most serious allegation involves pointing a firearm directly at a law enforcement officer. The charges stack up to one felony count of aggravated assault upon a public safety officer, one misdemeanor count of pointing or aiming a gun at another person, and one felony count of possession of a firearm during a felony. Multiple traffic offenses were also added.
The situation turned dangerous inside. The rapper suffers from Type 1 diabetes, and his management says he experienced a serious medical episode while in custody. Proper insulin injections were disrupted. He required emergency care before being stabilized. Now that he is on the outside, his team confirms he is receiving proper treatment and doing perfectly fine.
A sworn affidavit from a woman who knows the rapper directly challenges the police version of events. She insists OJ da Juiceman was not driving the car that day. His management also emphasizes that the artist has the utmost respect for law enforcement, pushing back against the aggressive narrative.
There is no recovery period planned. Manager Rueben Wood confirms the rapper was actively working on new music prior to the March arrest. Fans will hear those tracks very soon. Live performances are also locked in for the coming days. The time in lockup did not drain his momentum.
OJ da Juiceman survived eight gunshots years ago and kept performing. A few weeks in jail and a diabetes scare are not stopping him now. The music is coming. The stage is waiting. The juice did not run out.
