Memphis rapper Pooh Shiesty celebrated his twenty-second birthday this week from behind bars and while he wasn’t able to turn up as hard as he may have wished, he was surprised with a visit from his mother and girlfriend, who pulled up to his window in jail.
A video is circulating online, showing Shiesty’s mother and his girlfriend shouting at the rapper from outside of his window. “Big Prrdd,” yells one of them. “He call me Big Prrdd,” she added, quoting his song with Coi Leray.
While it’s presently unconfirmed, a man stands and watches on from the window, and some people believe it’s Shiesty. However, the camera is so far that’s it’s impossible to tell.

At the end of last month, Shiesty changed his plea from not guilty to guilty. He’s presently facing life in prison for a shooting and robbery case. The rapper’s team recently instructed his fans on how they could put money on his books. Gucci Mane, the man who signed Shiesty to the New 1017, also wished him a happy birthday, sending off a tweet and repping the #FreeShiesty movement.
