Fivio Foreign‘s incarceration, which took many by surprise when revealed in March, has prompted him and his legal team to devise a plan to achieve the best possible outcome in this scenario. The 35-year-old rapper has pleaded guilty to his terroristic threats charge in hopes that it will land him a probation sentence, rather than extended jail time.
TMZ Hip Hop reported, via the New Jersey Public Information Officer, that Fivio was accused of the threat to commit violence in the third degree for allegedly pointing a gun at a woman who asked him to help jump her car outside of his residence in Edgewater, NJ. “If I see you parked in front of this building again there is going to be a f**king problem,” he allegedly told the woman. Surveillance footage also corroborated her story as well as what witnesses observed.
The Brooklyn rapper is also facing four other charges, namely unlawful possession of a weapon and aggravated assault. His attorney, Adam Lustberg, believes that those charges will be dismissed due to his guilty plea for terroristic threats. Sentencing is set to take place in August, and Lustberg believes probation is in play since he has been in jail since January.

Fivio Foreign’s arrest was especially untimely, given the momentum he created for himself with the track “PlaqueBoyMax” that he released in January. The record was a response to popular streamer PlaqueBoyMax, who dissed the B.I.B.L.E rapper and his career after they did a stream with Lil Tjay. The rappers insisted on smoking in the AirBnB Max rented, despite him repeatedly saying they could not do it, and the conflict caused commotion over social media.
“Play this song and turn up with my lil’ man/ And my real name Max/ And I really got plaques, yeah/ Double digits, no cap/ I’m the real PlaqueBoyMax,” he rapped. Foreign also referenced streamers Kai Cenat and Tylil in the song. Fivi has made a few guest appearances in 2025 as well: Caldwell’s “Get Out The Way,” Gino Mondana’s “All White Nikes,” and Hai Shawn Martin’s “OPPS.”
