Pooh Shiesty Releases New Album ‘All Eyes on Shiest’ From Jail

Memphis rapper Pooh Shiesty has officially released his highly anticipated new album, All Eyes on Shiest. The project arrives as a significant milestone for the artist, who is currently navigating a complex legal battle while held in jail awaiting trial on robbery and kidnapping charges.

Released on Friday, August 7, 2026, the album features 16 tracks, including two bonus cuts. The project showcases a diverse array of collaborations, tapping into the current landscape of hip-hop with guest appearances from Big30, GloRilla, Sexyy Red, and the late producer Tay Keith, among others.

Reflecting on Incarceration Through Music

The album’s lead single, “Last Man Breathin,” serves as a poignant introduction to the project. Driven by a haunting piano and violin arrangement, the track finds Pooh Shiesty reflecting on the harsh realities of his current situation. Produced by Mike & Keys, TP808, and Jackson Botto, the song offers a candid look at the psychological toll of confinement and the struggles of street life.

In one of the track’s standout verses, he raps: “I feel the walls getting closer, my release date slowly coming/They gave the homie 75 he’ll get out when we turn a 100/I beat so many ni**as up, I clutch every time I feel funny/Only one step away from freedom, but I still can’t go for nothin’.”

Legal Challenges and Future Outlook

Pooh Shiesty remains in custody without bail following his April arrest. The charges stem from an alleged incident at a Dallas studio in January, where he, his father, and several associates were accused of attempting to force Gucci Mane to release Pooh from his recording contract at gunpoint. Prosecutors allege the group also robbed the 1017 Records founder during the encounter. The trial for Pooh Shiesty and his co-defendants is currently scheduled for February 22, 2027.
