Hit-Boy Says His Father is Back In Jail

The rapper Big Hit was released in May 2023.

Hit-Boy’s father, rapper Big Hit, is back in jail just a little over a year after his release.

In a heartbreaking post uploaded on Wednesday (Oct 23), which featured a clip of his dad on a jail call thanking fans for their support, the “Trophies” producer wrote, “People used to ask me what was I on, dropping so much music and moving around with my pops so much. In the back of my mind, the paranoia of him going back was always there, and here we are.”

Hit-Boy admitted, “We don’t know what the future holds, but Big Hit sends his love to all his supporters.” He also revealed that his dad “recorded over 700 songs when he was out, so we got more music otw.”

Big Hit, known as Chauncey Hollis Sr., was released from federal prison in May 2023 after completing a nine-year sentence. In total, he has spent almost 30 years incarcerated.

Last December, Big Hit released his debut album, “The Truth Is In My Eyes,” produced entirely by Hit-Boy.
