can someone tell me what was the big deal

In hip hop, when an artist is arrested and subsequently jailed or imprisoned, fans of the genre are absolutely required to advocate for their freedom, no matter the crime committed or whether or not said fan listened to the artist prior to incarceration. Upon incarceration, every fan of hip hop must react accordingly by claiming "FREE________", either online or wearing a t shirt with the phrase printed on it. The hip hop fan must now also claim to be and to have been a fan of the locked up artist for a substantial amount of time. As the length of incarceration drags on, more fans cling to the artist and advocate their freedom out of fear of not fitting in within the larger culture of hip hop fandom. In the case of Lil Boosie, he was an artist who was locked up for a sizable amount of time, allowing for him to cultivate more fans. Now that he has been released, he is able to capitalize on years of "FREE BOOSIE" rhetoric, as those who share the "FREE________" line are not able to ignore the incarcerated artist, again for fear of not fitting in, or in this case, being a bandwagon fan. Basically, fans of the genre who always claim "FREE________", are forced to listen to those artists out of their sense of duty and desire to be "authentic".
