Early Life

Born Torrence Hatch on November 2, 1982, in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Boosie’s upbringing took place in a particularly perilous neighborhood where even local police often hesitated to patrol. Tragically, he lost his father to murder during his childhood, contributing to a turbulent home life. At the age of 14, Boosie turned to rapping as an escape from the surrounding violence and instability.

Rap Career

Boosie’s debut album, titled “Youngest Of Da Camp,” was released in 2000 and secured the #96 position on the Billboard R&B charts. Following that, his second album, “For My Thugz,” launched in 2002, was followed by a successful third album, “Bad Azz” in 2006, which peaked at #1 on the Billboard rap charts.

In 2008, he founded his own label, Bad Azz Entertainment. He completed his fourth album, “Incarcerated,” while incarcerated due to drug-related charges. While in jail, he also completed his GED. His release occurred early in March 2014, and he began using the name Boosie Badazz. Later that year, he dropped his first album under this new moniker, “Touch Down 2 Cause Hell,” which attained #2 on both the US Rap and R&B charts, and #3 on the Billboard 200. In 2017, he released “BooPac,” followed by “Boosie Blues Cafe” (2018), “Badazz 3.5” (2019), “Bad Azz Zay” (2019), “Talk Dat Sh*t” (2019), “Goat Talk” (2019), “In House” (2020), “Goat Talk 3” (2021), and “Heartfelt” (2022). In 2023, he delivered the albums “First Day Back,” “Best Album of 2023,” and “Goin Thru Some Thangs.” His recent single, “Ungrateful,” contains pointed remarks directed at his daughter and her mother.

Personal Life

Boosie is a father to eight children from six different women, including three children with his long-term partner Walnita Decuir, who had a run-in with law enforcement in 2010 for attempting to smuggle drugs to him while he was incarcerated.

In December 2020, he announced intentions to sue Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg for $20 million, citing his ban from Instagram as a detrimental blow to his business prospects. During an interview with VladTV, he expressed that this ban had cost him many opportunities—potentially around $20 million—though he hadn’t yet initiated the lawsuit, leaving some uncertainty regarding his seriousness.

On November 14, 2020, coinciding with Boosie’s 38th birthday, he sustained a gunshot wound to the leg following attendance at a candlelight vigil.

“`A vigil was held for rapper MO3 in Dallas. Initially, it was reported that amputation of his leg might be necessary; however, on November 22, Boosie revealed that he was at home recovering without any amputations.

Legal Issues

Boosie has faced multiple arrests and incarcerations throughout his life. He was charged in 2010 with first-degree murder and possession with intent to distribute narcotics. Prosecutors later claimed they suspected Boosie might be involved in “at least five other murders.” Ultimately, he was acquitted of the murder charge but found guilty of the drug charges, resulting in an eight-year sentence in state prison.

In 2014, he was released after his lawyers effectively argued that Boosie had been set up by informants. He was on parole until 2018. Additionally, in July 2022, Boosie was detained during a traffic stop and cited for possession of marijuana.

Controversies

Boosie faced significant backlash in February 2020 after making derogatory remarks regarding Dwyane Wade’s 12-year-old daughter, who had come out as transgender.

In May 2020, he posted a (now-deleted) video on Instagram where he allegedly boasted about paying an adult woman to perform a sexual act on his underage nephew.

In October 2021, Boosie drew criticism once more for a Tweet containing an anti-gay tirade directed at Lil Nas X, which even suggested that Lil Nas X should consider taking his own life. The post was subsequently removed by Twitter.
