Torrence “Lil Boosie” Hatch was expected in court this morning to face the murder rap of Terry Boyd, 35, who was shot through a window on Oct. 21, 2009 while inside his home.

Hatch pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder in connection with Boyd's death in June 2010.

Hatch and three others, including Michael Louding, known as Marlo Mike, were scheduled to appear in court, but their cases were moved to a later date.

They also face multiple drug and conspiracy charges in the same case.

Additionally, Louding, 17, has been charged with killing local rapper Chris "Nussie" Jackson, who was embroiled in a dispute with Lil Boosie.

Hatch could face the death penalty if found guilty for Boyd's murder.

The first single for the upcoming project is titled, “It's So Hard” which seems fitting for a man dealing with his particular circumstances.

Rappers like Shyne and Beanie Sigel have taken their circumstances behind bars and utilized their experiences to craft records for fans to sit on while they do their bid. With a life sentence ahead of him, Miller should have a lot to say as he prepares himself for the lifetime behind bars.

Brett Morrow, Director of Online Marketing for RBC Records, has stated that they intend to take action on behalf of the rapper to see his release from confinement.

"We have contacted the NAACP and are currently organizing the community for several protests of his arrest," Morrow said. "We hope to have Corey home soon and once and for all vindicated in the court of law."

Miller was recently convicted and sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole for second degree murder. Since then, the rapper has decided to appeal the murder charge and resources such as the NAACP have stated that they would like to step in and aid the rapper.

Many opinions have weighed in on the final verdict. TRU Records artist Tomeka stated that the government within Louisiana was against the rappers innocence from the start and adds that the case might have been handled incorrectly or with a sense of bias. A racist mentality might have led to the downfall of Miller.

Speaking with HipHopWired, rapper Lil Boosie gave an update on what is going on in the state of Louisiana and how it has yet to repair itself.

“It got way worse than it was. Our murder rate is high. It's crazy down here. It's a recession, people are hungry man. Our governor, he's an a-hole, he just turned down damn near millions people to get jobs, we in a bad predicament, the court system all messed up they throwing people away, it's crazy, it's crazy in Baton Rogue.”

Whatever the outcome might come to be for Miller, he still has another 10 year sentence that he must face as well. Sometimes a person must call a spade a spade and accept the fact that it is what it is. Stop raising questions when the answer seems clear.

Releasing the track, “Free Tru Life”, the rapper pens a heartfelt letter to his friend as he shows that he is still behind Tru Life even with the charges against him. Once a part of the prison system himself, the rapper adds that if he had the key, he would make sure that he was no longer incarcerated.

The track also provides another perspective on the jailed rapper as his past incidents in the news has placed him in a negative light. Sai reflects on their past and how they have always tried to give back to the community and create a positive change. Speaking on the work that they have done to keep kids out of gangs, an enlightened point of view is provided that shows that rapper's are not always as bad as the world tries to depict them.

Speaking with HipHopWired, Sai gave some more incite on the situation with Tru.

“I talk to Tru about twice a week. I want everybody just to remember that he's in an unfortunate situation. They are charging him with the worst crimes you could be charged with as a person and he's a totally innocent man. I know for a one million percent fact that he did not do what they are charging him with. His life took a dramatic turn and I just tell him to stay positive, keep praying and you will be vindicated eventually because God is good and I don't think God is going to let an innocent man spend his whole life in prison for something he had nothing to do with.”

He also provided some words on how his friend has been doing since the case happened and how it has affected Tru's family.

“Under the circumstances, I commend him, he's strong. He's praying. His faith is in God. He just misses his kids a lot…He cares more about his kids than himself which just says a lot about his character. He got two little boys. Not being there for them and he's like their idol. They're so used to him being there every day and you just take him away, that hurts. It's like a smack in the face to his kids. Harsh reality.”

Roberto Guzman Rosado Jr. - better known as the rapper Tru Life - was arrested for the June 15 stabbings that left a second victim in critical condition. Rosado, 33, is jailed in Rikers Island on charges of murder, assault and weapons possession, police said. A conviction could find Rosado behind bars with a life sentence.

"I don't believe in the system, so my faith is in God/D*mn, my right hand's in a jam/They done went and put an innocent man in the can/Claiming I understand, feeling like crying, but I can't/I decided to write this -- Now they claiming you got a gang/Where we run around teaching these little n*ggas not to bang -- At least show the father that takes his young sons to a soccer game -- What up Tru, what it do, it's your brother Sai/Why'd they have to choose you to try to nullify/I'm sorry, somebody sing that n*gga a lullaby/But y'all got the wrong motherf*cking guy.”-(Free Tru Life)
