Just last week things were looking up for Brooklyn, New York, rapper Bobby Shmurda.
His team appeared to negotiate his release on a $2 million dollar bail via a bail bondsman and all indicators pointed to the “Hot N—a” rapper being a free man within days of the transaction.
Then on Feb. 4, Shmurda’s team withdrew their bail application with the hopes of getting his bail lowered.
Shmurda recently spoke with Billboard magazine about the entire situation:
“Right now I think the DA and the judge and everyone in the court is being biased. It’s so crazy. The favoritism, yeah. They don’t have no evidence, no nothing on me for the bill to be so high. I haven’t been out for a year, I haven’t been around for a year. So I didn’t make two million dollars! They gave me a bill they know I can’t pay. We can pay the 10 percent. And we tried to pay the 10 percent and they told us [we need] collateral. And every time we go for bail, it’s something new. … Everybody goes through tough times and good times. You know what, tough times don’t last forever. I say, God makes his toughest battles for his strongest soldiers.
Shmurda and his GS9 crew are facing a number of charges, including conspiracy, attempted murder, murder, reckless endangerment, and weapons possession.
Barring any new developments, Shmurda’s next court date is set for April 22.
