Louisiana AG Threatens Legal Action Against Boosie Over Use of Caleb Wilson’s Name for Scholarship

Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill is threatening legal action against rapper Boosie Badazz over the use of Caleb Wilson’s name in connection with a scholarship fund.

Wilson’s parents objected to their son’s name being used to promote the upcoming Boosie Bash rap festival, saying they were unaware of the connection.

Boosie, born Torence Hatch Jr., announced the creation of the Caleb Wilson Memorial Scholarship during the sixth annual Boosie Bash, a three-day rap festival held on Southern University’s campus.

The festival, featuring artists like GloRilla and DaBaby, is set to raise funds for the scholarship, which Boosie claimed would support students. Wilson, a Southern University student and trumpet player for the Human Jukebox, died following a hazing incident involving the Omega Psi Phi fraternity, leading to widespread attention and vigils.

However, Murrill stated that Wilson’s parents did not give permission for their son’s name to be used in relation to the event. The parents are now requesting the removal of all references to their son’s name, image, and the scholarship from promotional materials.

Murrill emphasized that the family was under the impression that Boosie was making a donation to an existing scholarship fund, not starting one using their son’s name.

She criticized the situation as a “massive misrepresentation” and vowed to pursue legal action for the “misappropriation of his name” to promote a for-profit event.
