Just six weeks after HoneyKomb Brazy was released from prison, a federal judge has denied a request to end his supervised release early.
HoneyKomb Brazy tried to end his supervised release early, but it didn’t go well.
On April 27, 2026, U.S. District Judge Kristi DuBose denied the motion filed on behalf of the Mobile rapper. The motion, filed by a consultant named Eli Vick of Erech Consulting, asked the court to forgive potential violations of the terms of his release and to terminate his supervision entirely. The problem is that Vick is not a lawyer and does not have the authority to file motions in federal court on behalf of others.
The motion claims that the guns featured in HoneyKomb Brazy’s videos, including his song “Dead People,” are “non-functional props…critical to the commercial viability of the ‘gangsta rap’ genre.” Vick also cited the rapper’s association with the Boys & Girls Club, support from his family and management team, and the fact that his team hired outside security to “avoid direct contact with the firearms.” It’s the same argument used in 2021, when defense attorneys told a Mobile County judge that the guns in 15 film clips were prop weapons covered by the disclaimer. This was not possible at the time either.
Even if Vick were the actual attorney, the motion still wouldn’t have a chance. Federal law states that a judge cannot even consider early release until the person has been under supervision for at least a year. HoneyKomb Brazy’s release only began on March 13, 2026, six weeks after the case reached the judge’s desk. The court threw it out.
It all goes back to a December 2023 traffic stop in Alabama that handcuffed HoneyKomb Brazy and two bodyguards on felony charges of criminal possession of a drug. He reached a plea deal and received a 30-month sentence. At his sentencing, he told the court, “I want to be a great man. I just don’t know how… I really want to do the right thing.” His attorney made it clear that the rapper did have safety concerns because his grandparents were killed, his family was targeted, and, according to Fox 10 News, bodyguards were hired by outside groups who never told anyone they couldn’t legally carry guns.
HoneyKomb Brazy’s supervised release is for three years, and he has until March 2027 to request early release.
