Top5 is back in the spotlight after being cleared of a murder charge and is living it up.
- Earlier this week, Toronto rapper Top5 beat allegations in a high-profile murder case.
- With newfound freedom, he thanked those who helped him, including Drake.
- Top5 quickly returned to his lavish lifestyle, showing off luxury watches.
- Despite his freedom, some remain critical of his behavior post-release.
Top5’s recent legal victory has made waves. Earlier this week, the Toronto rapper was cleared of his alleged involvement in the 2021 shooting of Hashim Omar Hashi. A judge dismissed social media evidence, leading to Top5’s release. Outside the courthouse, he stated, “An innocent man just came home. I hope they find whoever they did that. R.I.P.”
After his release, Top5 took to Instagram to celebrate. In his now-edited post, he thanked everyone who supported him, hinting that Drake might have covered his legal fees. Although unconfirmed, the gesture would reflect significant backing from the fellow Toronto artist.
Top5 wasted no time flaunting his newfound freedom. In a clip shared by 2Cool2Bl0g, he’s seen showcasing three new luxury watches alongside Benny The Jeweler. While the exact cost of these high-end pieces is unknown, it’s obvious they came with a hefty price tag.
Top5’s return to normalcy hasn’t gone unnoticed. Some can’t fault him for indulging in luxury after his ordeal, but others are skeptical. Criticism stems from how he’s chosen to operate since his release, with some questioning his decisions.
In a recent controversial interview with DJ Akademiks and Adin Ross, Top5 willingly challenged Kendrick Lamar and Metro Boomin. He stated, “It’s not a threat, I’m just looking for Metro Boomin and Kendrick Lamar. I’m doing my homework on them right now, doing my tasks on them right now. Nothing incriminating. I’m just looking for them.”
Top5’s journey from legal battles to flaunting luxury watches has certainly kept people talking.
