Posted by A disturbing video has surfaced showing a man believed to be Gucci Mane being held at gunpoint, during which he is coerced into stating that Pooh Shiesty has been dropped from his 1017 label. The footage, which began circulating on Wednesday, July 1, provides a chilling look into the incident that has since become the subject of a major federal case.
In the video, a man whose face is obscured stands between Pooh Shiesty and an armed individual. The tension is palpable as the armed man demands, “Let them know you dropping me, bruh.” The man appearing to be Gucci Mane complies, stating, “I drop you. Pooh Shiesty dropped from 1017.”
Details of the Alleged Incident
According to investigators, the footage was recorded on a phone belonging to Big30. This evidence aligns with photos previously released by federal authorities regarding the January 10 incident. Prosecutors allege that Pooh Shiesty lured Gucci Mane to a Dallas recording studio under false pretenses. Once there, he allegedly forced the rap mogul to sign a contract release form at gunpoint and robbed him and his associates.
Pooh Shiesty, his father, Big30, and six others are currently facing charges related to the incident. The group is awaiting trial, which is currently scheduled for February 2027.
Legal Fallout and Safety Concerns
The legal proceedings have been marked by significant tension. In a recent filing, the U.S. Attorney’s Office included a letter from a security guard who was working for Gucci Mane during the alleged kidnapping and robbery. The guard expressed profound fear for his family’s safety following the encounter. Consequently, the presiding judge has ordered that Pooh Shiesty remain in custody until the trial commences.
As the case continues to develop, the public release of this footage serves as a stark reminder of the serious allegations surrounding the 1017 label’s former signee. Representatives for Pooh Shiesty and the U.S. Attorney’s Office have yet to provide further comment on the latest developments.
