21 Savage May Still Be Deported

21 Savage was arrested early last year by ICE, which came as a surprise to all of his fans. Despite the rapper growing up in Atlanta, he was reportedly staying in the United States without a visa. He had applied for a new one but, because his last one had expired, the immigration police came after him.

We haven’t heard much about his case in recent months and, because of that, many assumed that he was in the clear. However, there is still a chance that he gets deported, which Savage explained in a new interview with DJ Scream and Big Bank.

“No, [the immigration case isn’t over] but the lawyers are dealing with it,” said the rapper when asked about his arrest last year. “I don’t think they’re gonna [deport me] but if they do, shit, my money coming with me, for sure. I’ll be alright, for sure. The money go wherever you go. They got rich people over there [in the UK]. I’ma be one of them.”

He went on to joke that he would also have all of his homies move to England with him.

“I’m taking everybody. Everybody coming. Everybody gonna wanna come,” said Savage. “They not letting me go by myself anyway. They coming, for sure.”

Shortly after, the 27-year-old explained what it was like growing up as an immigrant in Atlanta.

“I done overcame every obstacle that came my way. N***as don’t really know how that shit be like. Growing up, a n***a is in the hood and a n***a an immigrant. So, no matter what, you can’t go to college,” he said. “You can’t get no license, you can’t get no job. My mom used to be paranoid driving. My mama used to be scared to drive. Scared. But she had to drive. No license. My mama ain’t never had a license until I was probably 24 or 25 when I got some money and got her shit straight. Our struggle was different. It wasn’t no other option. I couldn’t go get a job. I couldn’t go to college. I couldn’t get a license. I just got my license when I was like 25 or 26.”

Savage starts talking about immigration at 17:15.

Vybz Kartel

In a story reminiscent of a romantic movie script, Jamaican dancehall superstar Vybz Kartel, after nearly a decade of resilience defying the odds, has taken a heartfelt leap in his relationship with longtime girlfriend Sidem Öztürk. Engaged since his days in incarceration, Kartel’s recent proposal to Öztürk exemplifies a bond that’s been tested, strengthened, and made all the more resilient by love, loyalty, and redefined devotion.

Vybz Kartel was sentenced to life imprisonment in 2014, a development that significantly altered the trajectory of his life and career. While many presumed that his influential voice would be silenced within the confines of his cell, an unexpected turn of events unfolded. Öztürk emerged as a beacon of dedication, captivating music fans worldwide during this challenging period. As Kartel articulated on social media, she provided steadfast support throughout his most difficult times, conveying messages of encouragement and affection across the barriers of incarceration. Their relationship, sustained through regular phone calls, prison visits, and unwavering loyalty, evolved into an unconventional yet profoundly impactful love story.

Following his recent release, Kartel didn’t miss a beat in reaffirming his commitment to Öztürk. On November 4, he took to Instagram to share a deeply personal, celebratory video, flashing a ring with excitement before kneeling in a hotel room to officially propose. With Öztürk visibly stunned, the moment encapsulated years of shared devotion, further enriched by Kartel’s caption: “You were there when I needed you most, and I’ll never leave you, baby.” He reminisced on moments they laughed together, cried together, dreamed together, and now celebrate together even during periods when freedom seemed unattainable.

The genesis of their romance dates back to a bold move by Öztürk in 2015 when, as she later revealed, her admiration for Kartel’s music and persona led her to track down his Instagram profile. What started as admiration quickly evolved into a profound connection, one she describes as an “obsession” that felt decidedly destined. Almost a decade later, her instincts have proven right, and the two are now engaged, looking forward to building a life beyond the confines of prison walls together in a love forged through extraordinary circumstances.
