Dugg failed to surrender himself to a West Virginia prison in April 2022 to serve a six-month bid for violating probation conditions. The whole situation traces its roots from a 2019 case where the 4PF rapper was arrested for firing a gun at shooting range despite being a convicted felon. Although he was facing 10 years behind bars, a deal enabled him to avoid prison and was placed under probation.
42 Dugg took a plea deal last week for failing to surrender himself to the authorities for a six-month sentence. He faces up to five years in prison, however, prosecutors will recommend a six-month sentence as part of the deal.
On Tuesday (March 28), Dugg hopped on Instagram stories to share his thoughts on his legal problems. “A lot of these n##### got get out of jail free cards,” the 4PF artist wrote. “I guess cause I’m turnt I gotta go through the Worst!!!!!! Death Before Dishonor. FREEDEMBOYZ.”

The record is the ninth song on Jeezy’s 17-track project, Snofall, hosted by DJ Drama on his Gangsta Grillz series. The song is produced by J.U.S.T.I.C.E League.

42 Dugg faces five years in prison for evading prison sentence
Detroit rapper 42 Dugg is all smiles despite facing five years in prison. On Thursday (June 23), a fresh photo circulated on social media showing a smiling 42 Dugg posing with a fellow inmate. DJ Akademiks shared the photo on Instagram and G Herbo didn’t hesitate to slide on the comments calling for Dugg’s freedom.
The Free Dem Boyz rapper was arrested in May after landing in Detroit on a private jet. Dugg was picked up for evading a six months prison sentence. The sentence stems from a 2020 gun case that saw the rapper hit with three-year probation sentence.
Dugg tested positive for drugs last December and was arrested for obstructing law enforcement in Nevada. A judge consequently revoked his probation in February despite Dugg’s lawyer filing an appeal. Dugg was sentenced to six months in prison and was supposed to surrender himself in April but never did.
Shortly after he was arrested last month, Dugg’s first photo in jail surfaced showing him smiling while on jail call.
42 Dugg and EST Gee’s project is titled ‘Last Ones Left’
Yo Gotti is effectively running his CMG label and has an all-star lineup. Next up to bat, again, is EST Gee and 42 Dugg, as they announce their joint project Last Ones Left dropping soon.
According to HipHopDX, the label (Collective Music Group) held a press conference in L.A., hosted by Carl Lamarre of Billboard.
“Last Ones Left,” 42 Dugg said during the press conference. “Me and Gee, you know, that shit coming soon. We finishing it up right now. Just be ready for it.”
The album is scheduled to arrive this Friday (Feb. 18), but is subject to change, as there hasn’t been anymore press-run talk surrounding it. However, they may be moving back to the traditional route of just dropping it for what it truly is — a mixtape.
Gotti also introduced his new signee, Mozzy, a west coast artist that adds a different dynamic to the fold of artists already on the roster.
“I always wanted to work with an artist from the West Coast,” Yo Gotti revealed on stage. “After years of having big conversations, running into each other, and sharing ideas, we come here tonight to let you know, we’re bringing our dawg Mozzy into CMG.”
