Pooh Shiesty and Big 30 have been charged with major criminal charges.

On Thursday, April 2, NBC 5 reported that eight out of nine people, including rappers Pooh Shiesty and Big 30, were taken into custody for alleged robbery and kidnapping of three music industry professionals.

As per the report, three rappers, including Gucci Mane - whose legal name is Radric Davis, had travelled to Dallas for a scheduled meeting, set by Shiesty, to discuss a contract dispute.

However, during the meeting, things took a shocking turn as one person was allegedly forced to sign a contract release, while others were robbed of cash and jewelry.

The details of the incident were shared by the U.S. Attorney's Office for North Texas during a press conference.

It was also noted that Gucci Mane is only identified in the Criminal Complaint as "R.D."

The complaint also identifies his record label 1017.

According to the prosecutors, Pooh Shiesty, whose legal name Lontrell Williams, Jr., has been a part of Mane's record label since 2021, and "executed a coordinated armed takeover" with the help of eight other people.

The other individuals apprehended were identified as Lontrell Williams, Sr., Rodney Wright, Jr. (aka “Big30”), Kedarius Waters, Terrance Rodgers, Damarian Gipson, Demarcus Glover, Kordae Johnson, and Darrion McDaniel.
