THE ROOT -- Atlanta-based rapper 21 Savage has a legal dream team, and they say that information released to the press by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement was incorrect.
Savage's dream team -- which consists of attorneys from LaPolt Law, P.C., Kuck | Baxter Immigration Partners LLC, The Steel Law Firm, P.C., Daniels & Smith, LLC, Law Firm Of Abbi S. Taylor, LLC, and Icon Business Management, Inc. -- released a statement on Thursday clearing up some of the questions that arose after Savage's arrest.
Here's a summary: Savage has lived in the U.S. since he was in the first grade, he is not a convicted felon, and the Department of Homeland Security has known his whereabouts since at least 2017 when the rapper applied for a U visa.
