Brittney Griner was sentenced to nine years in a Russian jail, which isn’t sitting right with many in the hip-hop industry. Since the news broke early Thursday, celebrities have used their platforms to express disdain for the severe punishment.

“This is wild, smh you don’t ever want to get caught up in the politics,” 50 Cent wrote on Twitter. “They are gonna tell her like 10 years for a vape pin watch.”

Boosie expressed similar sentiments, tweeting, “9 YEARS FOR A DAM WEED PEN like wtf IM STAYING MY BOOSIE BADAZZ N THE STATES this fucked up.” He further vented his frustrations in a video shared to Instagram.
