Blueface has shocked fans with a brand-new look from inside prison. Once known for his slim frame, the rapper now appears far more muscular and covered in even more tattoos than before. Recent photos taken at California State Prison in Los Angeles County show him posing alongside other inmates, and it’s clear he’s been spending his time lifting weights and embracing a tougher image.
One shot in particular caught attention when he stared directly into the lens with the caption, “This is not a 50/50 yard.” The meaning behind the words isn’t completely explained, but it adds to the intensity of his new persona. Observers have pointed out that his face tattoos are also new, with Wack 100 previously suggesting that Blueface has grown fond of prison ink while maintaining popularity among his peers behind bars.
His transformation is tied to the reality of his sentence. Blueface was handed four years in prison after a probation violation connected to a 2021 incident where a security guard was attacked outside a Los Angeles venue. Since being locked up, he’s leaned into fitness and reshaping his appearance, making him almost unrecognizable compared to the image fans remember from his breakout “Thotiana” days.
Away from prison life, his mother, Karlissa Saffold, has continued to plan a welcome celebration for her son once he regains his freedom. The event has been pushed back more than once, with November being the latest date mentioned. With how different Blueface looks now, she’ll likely need an updated picture for any flyers promoting the party.
Blueface’s time inside has clearly left its mark, both physically and visually. Between his bulked-up frame and new tattoos, he’s using prison as a chance to reinvent himself while waiting for the day he steps back into the world.
