Boosie BadAzz pushed back hard this week after court records suggested his probation officer had filed to have him arrested for failing to request travel approval for a recent show. The rapper posted what he says is definitive proof that the missed request was a simple oversight, not a probation violation.
On Wednesday (June 24), reporter Meghann Cuniff obtained documents indicating the probation officer sought an arrest for Boosie for not seeking permission to travel for a performance, and that the Baton Rouge native is facing a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon after an alleged incident in Houston, when he was accused of striking a security guard with a hookah.
Those allegations carry extra weight because Boosie was only recently placed on supervised release. He was sentenced in January to time served plus three years of supervised release in connection with a federal gun conviction from 2023, meaning both the travel paperwork issue and the Houston incident could violate the terms of his federal supervision.
Boosie, however, says the travel notice did exist and that his probation officer simply missed it. He shared video evidence and what he called the relevant email on X, and laid out his side of the story in unvarnished terms.
“Just talked to my PO n he found the email for me to travel to Houston,” he wrote, posting footage he says shows the email. “He said it was at the bottom of the paper under the flights n he overlooked it. He also said he would not count this as a violation. I’ve had over 50 shows since being on paper and I’ve went through the right process to notify my PO on every show .
“N yes I had marijuana n my system when I got on paper,” he continued. “Every test after that shows that I’m drug free. I get tested all the time n I’m always crystal clean. IM NOT STUPID. MY probation officer has been fair to me throughout this process. it’s the people over him who have problems with me. They asked him to ask me would I sign a piece of paper saying can he record our conversations n I said ‘HELL NO.'”
Elsewhere in his statement Boosie emphasized he has completed community service hours and said he and his lawyers are working to have the Houston assault case dismissed.
“I will not sit back n let these people drag my name. I have several hours of community service completed.I’ve been doing great on federal probation. Me n my attorneys r working to get this other case dismissed.”
The exchange underscores how tightly public perception, legal paperwork and the music business can collide for an artist still on federal supervision. For now the court filings obtained by Cuniff and Boosie’s own uploaded receipts sit in tension: one side signaling a potential probation breach, the other insisting the matter has already been cleared internally and will not be treated as a violation.
As the assault allegation moves through local channels and the federal supervision clock continues to tick, Boosie’s archive of shows and his relationship with his probation officer are likely to be scrutinized. He is publicly asserting that the travel notice existed, that routine drug tests show he is clean, and that he and his legal team are actively addressing the Houston charge.
We’ll continue to follow court filings and any updates from legal representatives as this story develops.
