1090 Jake and DJ Vlad delved into how incarceration affects a rapper’s career, with references to T.I.’s federal gun charge sentencing back in the day. T.I. received just a one-year sentence, sparking speculation and accusations of snitching due to the relatively short prison term. 1090 Jake reflected on how prison sentences affect post-incarceration careers, noting a few rappers who came out stronger, including T.I., Kodak Black, and Gucci Mane. Vlad noted that Tupac gained more fame post-prison, despite the chaotic period leading to his tragic death. They acknowledged that while sometimes prison could serve as a strange promotional platform with today’s social media, long periods away often disconnect artists from their audience and evolving music trends.
