Ralo – who is an avid Media Take Out reader – was really living that street life before he got into hip hop. He was rumored to have controlled all of the drug sales in a 3 mile radius neighborhood in Atlanta. And he staying living that life after he blew up in the hip hop game.
Ralo was arrested back in April of 2018, on federal drug conspiracy charges after police searched a private plane the rapper was in coming into Dekalb-Peachtree airport in Atlanta and discovered nearly a $1 million worth of marijuana. Ralo pleaded not guilty the following month.
Ralo reportedly turned down a five-year plea deal in 2019. In 2020, he was granted a bond, which was later revoked after a judge accused Ralo of continuing to run drugs from inside jail.
Throughout the entire process, Ralo and his team remained resilient. He’s released multiple projects while in jail including Free Ralo (2019) and Political Prisoner (2021).
