Over the past few months, Pooh Shiesty has faced significant challenges following his release from federal prison.
He stands accused of allegedly robbing and kidnapping Gucci Mane amid a contract dispute. Additionally, his father Big30 and six others have been indicted, with plans in place for their trial.
Shiesty has requested bail, but his perceived flight risk status means he’ll remain in custody until his trial, scheduled for February next year.
In spite of these hurdles, Gucci Mane continues to support Shiesty’s music releases. Most recently, fans were treated to the new project “All Eyes On Shiest”, praised for its authenticity and raw energy.

The album has achieved remarkable success, surpassing Ariana Grande’s latest release, “Petal”, to claim the number one spot on the US Apple Music album charts. This highlights the strong demand for Pooh Shiesty’s music, regardless of his current legal issues.
“All Eyes on Shiest” is generating buzz as it seems set to debut at an impressive #9 on the Billboard 200. Industry insiders are projecting first-week sales to reach around 40,000, further cementing his presence in the music scene.
Financially, the album’s impact is uncertain. Released under 1017 Records, Gucci Mane is positioned to benefit financially. Meanwhile, some speculate that Shiesty’s album launch is intended to fund his legal defense as he remains incarcerated.
