Dressed in all white, Big Guwop talked to his then-girlfriend, beauty entrepreneur Ka’oir in the video.

“You a free man, baby, talk to your fans Hunny,” Ka’oir said to the Trap God while recording. 

“Happy Memorial Day weekend! Thank you to my fans, appreciate my lady,” Gucci responded to Ka’oir.  

Fans reflected on Gucci’s release day and applauded Ka’oir for always supporting him through ups and downs. 

“We live and appreciate you, king, while your still here give my dawg his roses this am raised a generation Wopppppppp 🏁🏁🏁🤴🏿.”

“ComeBack 4 Real.”

“This is wonderful; you are an inspiration ♥️.” 

 “I remember ts like it was yesterday 💯 , WOPSTER 💚💰 TRAP GOD fasho.” 

“You could tell bro wasn’t even worried about the cam just was happy to be home 🥶.”

“DAD 🙌🏽🙌🏽 ❤️ HAPPY TRAP ANNIVERSARY.”

Gucci was arrested in Georgia in 2013 for violating his probation by carrying a gun. Mr. Zone 6 pleaded guilty in May 2014 to a firearm possession charge and was sentenced to 39 months in prison.

Guwop was held at the United States Penitentiary in Terre Haute, Indiana, but his release date was bumped from March 2017 to September 2016. 

However, his release came even sooner than that date. He and Ka’oir then married on May 14, 2017.

Ka’oir recently celebrated her third wedding anniversary with a heartfelt Instagram post to her hubby. 

“WOW!!! Today is a very Special day for my husband & I! We met 5/14/10!!! Got married 5/14/17!!! Today 5/14/20 we’ve been together TEN YEARS!!!” she wrote. “It wasn’t always a smooth ride, but I would do it all over again! My husband @laflare1017 I LOVE U BABY!!! 

Gucci responded to his wife’s video tribute, writing, “Happy 3yr anniversary MrsDavis” in her comment section. 

He also gifted Ka’oir a “1017” diamond necklace with the words “Happy 3rd Anniversary Mrs. Davis” spelled out on it in the diamonds.

“Happy Anniversary to the QUEEN of 1017 !! My Wife @keyshiakaoir,” Davis wrote for the post showcasing the 35-year-old’s gift.

The Wopsters walked down the aisle in October 2017, which represents the “1017.” Their wedding was featured on a BET special titled “The Mane Event.”

The two don’t share children, but Ka’oir is the mother of two daughters and a son from a previous relationship. Gucci has only one son. 

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
