Initial reports led to speculation that Boosie, born Torrence Hatch Jr., may have been driving the vehicle at the time of the collision. However, representatives for the Baton Rouge rapper quickly set the record straight.
“I just spoke to Boosie’s publicist who confirmed to me that… BOOSIE WASN’T HURT IN THE CAR ACCIDENT today that took place in Georgia,” The Breakfast Club host Loren Lorosa wrote on social media.
She clarified that Boosie was a passenger and only went to the hospital to check on the driver, adding, “Boosie was on his phone in the passenger seat of the car involved in the accident… he looked up for a second & then the car was hit.”
Shortly after the incident, Boosie took to social media to reassure fans. “IM GOOD. BANGED UP. BUT GOOD,” he wrote, adding a series of prayer hands emojis. “GOD GOT ME.”
