On Monday, August 5, a video surfaced online that showed BossMan Dlow being escorted by police officers near a vehicle. One can hear the onlooker, seemingly shocked at the sight, calling out the rapper’s name as he is led into a police cruiser in a video. The rapper briefly looked up to acknowledge the call but remained calm as he was placed in the back of the car.
Despite the release of a viral video, extremely little has been reported regarding BossMan Dlow’s arrest. Authorities have yet to comment on the incident, and very few details are known about what took place. Some theorize that the video is from an incident in 2024 after Dlow was briefly detained during a search of property in his hometown area of Port Salerno, Florida; however, it is as yet unconfirmed.
The public of BossMan Dlow reacted quickly to news of his arrest. Many have kept in mind that he has been in trouble before, being accused of drug possession in 2019; it just wonders what this latest incident is going to bring for him now. His fans would particularly like to know about his music scheduled for release on August 9, 2024: the remix of Ciara’s “Run It Up.”
Again, the incident complicates BossMan Dlow‘s public persona. Renowned for his musical gifts and dark past, Dlow has always been a figure of admiration and controversy. Now that he has moved out of this new challenge, all eyes are back on him.
In an interview with Bootleg Kev in March, Dlow explained that he was locked up in South Florida in the fall of 2019, right when COVID-19 was really surfacing.
“Everybody sick and sh*t,” BossMan Dlow recalled. “They’re like, ‘Oh, this COVID.’ Bches dying, 100, 200 thousand. Damn, what the fk? I’m in here trippin’ like.”
He described how awful the feeling was, sitting in jail during the pandemic, assuming he had picked up COVID-19—in fact, he didn’t even get tested for it. “It’s one of those situations—if you go and tell people you sick, you test positive for COVID, now the whole dorm go back on quarantine,” he explained. It was only supposed to be a 14-day quarantine, and we went over that, damn near 21 days. Just in the cell, lying in bed all day. You can’t go nowhere.
Born in Port Salerno, Florida, Dlow faced a rough path into making a name for himself in music. In 2019, he got into rapping while serving some time in the county jail. Through this, he wrote his very first song, basically the foundation stone of his incarnating musical career.
Following his release in 2020, Dlow focused on his passion for music.
He blew up off of social media giant TikTok with the release of his first mixtape, “Too Slippery,” which marked his career beginning in 2023. Not only did his single “Get in with Me” do well on Instagram and TikTok, but it also hit the Billboard Hot 100 chart. According to Ksi, Bossman Dlow’s music is motivational. The news of the arrest came as a shock to the fan base of BossMan Dlow.
Many have taken to social media to share their support and care for the rapper. His music always reflected his life, so these fans appreciate his authenticity and his resilient nature as an artist. With party beats, he continues to resonate with his audience. With all this transpiring, every fan is on their toes regarding the future of BossMan Dlow’s career. No statement comes from either the rapper himself or his team since there seems to be complete silence on his social media accounts. The mystery surrounding his arrest only stirs speculation and creates paramount concern among his supporters.
