Fetty Wap Posts First Prison Photo in a Year, Spurs Renewed Clemency Calls

The artist serving a six-year federal sentence shared an August 14 snapshot signed “Mr. 1738” that has reignited both fan and family pleas for a pardon.

Overview

  • On August 14, Fetty Wap posted his first behind-bars image since 2024, showing him with folded arms against a cell wall and the caption “Mr. 1738.”
  • Supporters flooded the post with messages of solidarity as his sister and petition organizers pressed Washington for executive clemency.
  • He is midway through a six-year term for pleading guilty in 2023 to conspiracy to distribute 500 grams or more of cocaine and faces five years of supervised release.
  • Family and backers emphasize that he pleaded to a single nonviolent count and have launched a petition calling on President Donald Trump to commute or pardon his sentence.
  • Despite incarceration, Fetty Wap released the 17-track album King Zoo in 2023 and dropped the single “Forever” this year to bolster his freedom campaign.
