According to FOX13 Memphis, FBI agents executed a “federal court-authorized search and arrest warrant” at a home in Cordova, Tennessee, at approximately 6 a.m. local time on Wednesday. Property records show that the property is owned by Lontrell Williams, which is the rapper’s legal name.
Along with the FBI, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation was also at the scene. However, no arrests have been publicly confirmed, nor was it immediately known who was the FBI’s target in the raid.
The Rapper Previously Served a 63-Month Prison Sentence
According to BET, Shiesty previously served a 63-month prison sentence for a firearms conspiracy conviction. He was released in October 2025.
In 2022, the rapper pleaded guilty to being connected with a 2020 robbery and shooting at a hotel in Bay Harbor, Florida.
Following his early prison release, Shiesty was placed in home confinement with a supervised release date for April 11.
In November 2025, Shiesty opened up about his life post-prison.
“I like to get up early, sit back and think, or I stay up all the way towards early and sleep,” he shared. “During the day, I work out, write music, make music, record, and keep planning.”
The rapper further spoke about how he’s spending his time in confinement.
“I got a studio,” he explained. “I had a studio my engineer brought with him down here where I’m at.”
Shiesty then noted, “I got a studio I ordered. It’s like a mobile studio. Then I got studios I go to, too, that’s out here when I get my passes or whatever.”
He further pointed out that he wasn’t very productive in the lead-up to his sentencing.
“Before I went to jail, I wasn’t writing at all,” Shiesty added. “I was just punching in and just going to the microphone. But when I went in, I just been writing, writing, writing, writing, like, whatever free time I get to the point to where, you know, I got raps that’s taller than me, that’s up to my hips.”
