Why Was Ralo in Prison?

Ralo was arrested back in April of 2018, after police claimed they discovered nearly $1 million worth of marijuana on the rapper's private plane at Dekalb-Peachtree Airport in Atlanta. In May of that year, he pleaded not guilty to drug conspiracy charges. In February of 2019, his team claimed he turned down a five-year plea deal. Last June, he was sentenced to eight years in prison. The judge credited the rapper with four years of time served. He was also reportedly credited with "1 & 1/2 year for good time," according to the rapper.

In celebration of his release, Ralo is dropping the aptly titled track "First Day Out."
