Boosie Badazz has claimed that an arrest warrant put out for him in Texas has been dropped due to a misunderstanding.
The Baton Rouge rapper was allegedly wanted for failing to pay for chauffeur services in Austin during a shopping trip in the city earlier this year.

Speaking on Instagram Live on Tuesday (September 24), Boosie claimed that the entire incident was a “misunderstanding.”
He added: “I’m just glad it’s been resolved. I paid the restitution.”
Boosie also revealed that the vehicle in question was broken into while he was hiring it and that he had various possessions stolen from him.
The issue originated during the rapper’s trip to Austin in June when his manager reached out to a chauffeur service to request a sprinter van to pick him and his crew up from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport.

As part of the complaint filed by the company, the driver provided a detailed run down of their three-day itinerary, which included trips to Walmart; a trampoline park; a visit to urgent care, where one of Boosie’s children was treated; a trip to the Round Rock Outlet Mall; and a stop at the federal courthouse in Downtown Austin so he could check in with a federal parole officer.
Per the affidavit, Boosie was so pleased with the chauffeur that he posted a video to social media to promote their business. At that point, the driver told him that he would give him “a good price, just like I told your manager,” and Boosie suggested the video he’d shared with his followers could be used to offset the price.
The limo service driver made it clear to police at no point was there “a circumstance, prior to the promotion video, where they agreed that the promotion video would fully cover the cost of services.”
Once he left Austin, the company says they reached out to Boosie and his manager several times to secure payment before eventually sending an $8,800 invoice.

A court hearing was originally scheduled for next month.
Boosie Badazz continues to face numerous other legal issues after being charged with possession of a firearm and ammunition by a convicted felon, for which he faces up to 10 years behind bars if convicted.
