Bobby Shmurda leaves Epic Records

It’s been over a year now, since Bobby Shmurda was finally released from prison. The Brooklyn rapper served over six years in prison. He was arrested in December 2014, for charges of conspiracy to commit murder, reckless endangerment, and drug and gun possession. Other members of his GS9 crew ended up being hit with much severe sentences.

In 2021, Bobby Shmurda went on to release release several new records. These included “No Time For Sleep Freestyle,” “Shmoney,” featuring Quavo and Rowdy Rebel, “Splash,” and “Cartier Lens.”

In February, Bobby also voiced his displeasure with Epic Records. He’s been signed to them since he was 19, and wants out now.

“I got a 70 year old lady running my label and I love her dearly but doesn’t want to let me go at allllllll No matter what I do I’ve been sign to them since I was 19 I did six years in jail trying to get off this label before I came home you name one person in the industry a label keeps sign in jail for six years???? … Yeah IK IK I made them more millions than they ever gave me!!!
