Early Life

Personal Life

Boosie has eight children from six women. He has three children with his long time girlfriend Walnita Decuir. Walnita was arrested in 2010 after attempting to bring Boosie narcotics in jail.

In December 2020, Boosie claimed he was planning to sue Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg for $20 million over the rappers banishment from Instagram. In an interview with VladTV, Boosie claimed being banned from IG dried up many business opportunities and potentially cost him as much as $20 million in lost potential deals. At the time he made the claim he hadn't actually filed the lawsuit and it was unclear if he was serious.

In November 14, 2020, on Boosie's 38th birthday, he was shot in the leg after attending a candlelight vigil for rapper MO3 in Dallas. It was initially reported that he may have to have his leg amputated, but on November 22, Boosie announced he was at home healing with no amputations.

Boosie has been arrested and imprisoned on a number of occasions. In 2010 he was indicted on first-degree murder charges and possession with intent to distribute narcotics. Prosecutors would later state that they believed Boosie was potentially involved in "at least five other murders." He was ultimately found not guilty on the murder charge but guilty on the narcotics charges. He was sentenced to eight years in state prison.

He was released from prison in 2014 after his attorneys successfully argued that Boosie had been set up by informants. He remained on parole until 2018. And in July 2022, Boosie was detained during a traffic stop and cited with possession of marijuana.

Controversies

In February 2020, Boosie was heavily criticized after making disparaging comments about Dwyane Wade's 12-year-old daughter who had come out as transgender.

In May 2020, Boosie uploaded a (now-deleted) video to Instagram in which he reportedly bragged about paying an adult woman to perform a sex act on his underage nephew.

In October 2021, Boosie came under fire again, this time after he Tweeted out an anti-gay rant targeted at Lil Nas X. The Tweet encouraged Lil Nas X to take his own life. Twitter removed the post.
