Pooh Shiesty told XXL he studied Gucci Mane's whole post-prison glow-up while locked up himself, and the Memphis rapper said watching his mentor get healthy plus stay disciplined gave him a roadmap for bouncing back. Gucci dropped some real talk on him early about experiencing heavy stuff at 20 that most people don't see until way later in life, and Shiesty said that perspective stuck with him through his bid.
The guy pleaded guilty to gun and drug trafficking charges back in 2022, got hit with over five years of federal time, but walked out early in October, ready to apply everything he absorbed. He mentioned Gucci's fitness transformation and mental health work became his template for how to rebuild without losing the edge, and the comeback plans sound like they're already in motion.
