Memphis rap star Pooh Shiesty has officially re-entered the spotlight with the release of his powerful new single and music video, “FDO”—an acronym for First Day Out. The track marks his first official release following his early release from federal prison in October 2025, ending a multi-year absence that left fans wondering if and how he would reclaim his place in rap.
From the moment the video opens, it’s clear: this isn’t just a song—it’s a statement. “FDO” captures Shiesty’s emotional and physical transition from incarceration back into freedom, blending gritty storytelling with triumphant imagery.
His delivery remains intense and cold-blooded, a reminder of why he was considered one of the most exciting street rappers before prison.
