End of December 2021 was our most recent update on 23-year-old 9lokkNine. At that time, he received a seven-year prison term. According to XXL, the rapper was arrested on federal counts including aggravated identity theft, possession of an unregistered firearm, and felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition. In addition to serving time, 9lokk will also have to pay $10,416 in reparations, participate in drug treatment for an additional three years, and live under supervised release.
It’s been relatively quiet on his front since he went away. However, on Thursday (May 25), an Instagram fan account dedicated to the artist lit up with some new photos of him. “But You Know I Hold On Staying Strong I Keep My Helmet High 💕🦍,” they wrote in the caption. In a series of photos, we see 9lokk kicking it with fellow inmates, all wearing matching sweatsuits and sneakers. The most obvious difference in the young star’s appearance is his hair, which he’s begun growing into an afro.

Aside from that, he’s also obviously had time to hit the gym in the last year and a half, as his figure is substantially bulkier than before he went away. Apart from the aforementioned charges, 9lokkNine is also accused of allegedly shooting a gun into an Orlando home in July of 2021. For this, he’s facing attempted second-degree murder, as authorities believe he was targeting another rapper at the time. A woman and her children were inside at the time, but thankfully, no one was harmed.
At the time, a witness told detectives that the “Crayola artist” wanted to be “the only rapper coming from Orlando. He previously rose to fame with projects like Loyalty Kill Love and Mind of Destruction. While he reportedly landed a deal with Cash Money Records, nothing ultimately came of it before his arrest.
