B.G. has claimed that he’s banned from rapping about alleged “snitches” due to the police monitoring the lyrics of his songs.
The Hot Boys rapper addressed the terms of his supervised release on Instagram on Thursday (June 20).
“Went off in this courthouse. Got me a victory,” he said. “I was able to go in court, get permission to work, get permission to do my concerts, get permission to trap this new music. Got permission to be self-employed.
“Everything worked out in a real G favor man. I just wanna thank ya’ll who been rocking with me since day one. They still tryna censor me a little bit. They don’t want me rapping about snitches so I gotta be real mindful.”
He added: “I gotta be a little safe in what I say and how I say it while I’m on supervised release but for the most part, it’s go time.”
B.G. has been fighting against an order to have his lyrics pre-approved by his probation officer.
Authorities petitioned to have B.G.’s release conditions modified after he began releasing music and performing concerts again.
“Mr. Dorsey appears to be travelling down the same road that landed him in prison in the first place,” the motion read.
“While the Government commends him for his entrepreneurial abilities to get back into the music industry, it has significant concerns as to how this will affect his rehabilitation as he re-enters society, which is the main reason for the period of supervised release.
“It appears that Mr. Dorsey is getting back into the same lifestyle that led to his long period of incarceration, as evidenced by his recently released song/video ‘Same Gangsta’ and several others that are similar in nature.”
It added: “As this Court is aware, Mr. Dorsey is a talented rap artist and has been since the age of thirteen. Unfortunately, Mr. Dorsey has used his talents to glorify the violent, lawless, ‘gangsta’ lifestyle and those, including some of his associates, who participate in it.”
B.G. and his lawyers have been arguing that the petition violated the rapper’s rights as it pertains to the First Ammendment.
