BG Breaks His Silence: 11 Years Locked Up, New Music, and Relationship With Cash Money
Description
BG joins Miabelle for a powerful and deeply personal episode of BET Talks—and this one hits different.
The New Orleans rapper opens up about serving 11 years behind bars and what life has looked like since his release. From dropping Choppers & Bricks to this year’s Freedom Of Speech, BG talks rebuilding his career while navigating probation, including having to submit his lyrics for approval—a reality shaped by ongoing rap lyrics being used in court cases like those involving Young Thug and Lil Durk.
He also dives into his healing journey, from therapy and fitness to reconnecting with family and staying disciplined. Throughout the interview, BG keeps it raw, real, and unapologetic—ending with an emotional message to fans about resilience, growth, and never giving up.
