Boosie Badazz’s surprise visit to a Louisiana high school gets the principal suspended for violating district policy.
Controversial rapper Boosie Badazz rolled through a Louisiana high school unannounced to speak to students, and now the principal’s paying the price.
The rapper showed up at Northside High School in Lafayette on Wednesday, posted videos of himself hyping up students in the gymnasium, and walked through the hallways.
What seemed like a cool moment for the kids turned into a major headache for the administration when the district found out that no one had approved the visit.
Principal James Rollins was placed on administrative leave just days after the incident went viral on social media.
Parents were posting clips of Boosie entering the building to his track “Wipe Me Down” and posing with students, but the Lafayette Parish School System wasn’t feeling it.
According to The Advocate, the visit violated district policy because nobody ran it through the proper channels first. The school system confirmed Rollins was on leave but wouldn’t say exactly why, citing personal matters.
Boosie was in the area promoting his annual Boosie Bash concert, which is being held in Lafayette, Louisiana, this year.
Boosie has a long history of legal troubles, including a first-degree murder trial where he was acquitted, plus gun and drug convictions dating back to 2009.
His recent legal issues included a 2023 California firearm arrest that landed him three years of supervised release and a fifty-thousand-dollar fine in January.
The district still hasn’t said whether Rollins will get his job back or if this is permanent.
