Yo Gotti was there to pick him up.

Detroit MC 42 Dugg is now officially free from prison as of Monday, October 16. He was serving a one-year bout for failure to surrender himself. In addition, Dugg failed to serve a six-month sentence following a 2020 federal gun investigation. But, now he is free according to multiple reports. Throughout him doing his time behind bars, Dugg was still able to push out some single fairly regularly. Just a couple of months ago the rapper released "One Time." His eagerness is already growing strong as it was reported that he wanted to immediately head to the studio.

It is a common thing for rappers to want to hit the booth to express their feelings of finally being released. Fans in theshaderoom's Instagram post recognized this trend. One says, "“Took him straight to the studio” 😂😂😂 this every person in prison 1st move when they get out." YG also was hyped to see that he was free commenting, "Ayeeeeeee." What you will also notice below is that they got footage of Dugg being sent home.

Gotti and Dugg took a picture in front of the massive welcome party of cars, including a Rolls-Royce. Both can be seen raising their middle fingers at the camera. What is also nice about Dugg being out now, is that he might be able to perform for the CMG Gangsta Art Tour that begins on November 22, according to TMZ. The first show takes place in Fort Worth, Texas.
