Rap Lyrics Cost Him 21 Years in Prison (ft. Mac and Angelique Phipps)
This week, Victoria sits down with rapper and former No Limit Soldier Mac Phipps and his wife Angelique Phipps for a story that’s been buried too long.
In 2001, Mac was convicted of a crime he didn’t commit. It was a case built on shaky evidence, witness coercion, and a system that failed him. After serving over 20 years in prison, he's finally free. And now, for the first time, he's returned to St. Tammany Parish, the place where it all happened, to tell the story in his own words.
This conversation is all about injustice, resilience, and the long road back. Angelique shares what it was like to fight for Mac’s release, how they rebuilt their life after everything was taken, and what they want people to know now.
