Meet Bic Fizzle: The 1017 Rapper Now Facing A Murder Rap

BIC FIZZLE ISN’T SOME RANDOM DUDE. His real name is Jeremiah Edrick Northern, he’s 23, and he’s from Arkansas, repping the Jonesboro/Blytheville area. Before any of this mess, he was actually SIGNED TO GUCCI MANE’S 1017 LABEL, the same imprint that’s put on for artists like Pooh Shiesty. That kind of cosign usually means you’re on the come up, not booked into a county jail.

According to HotNewHipHop’s reporting, Fizzle was building buzz off that 1017 connection before this arrest flipped the whole narrative. Now instead of drops and shows, he’s dealing with a first-degree murder booking. Rap game one day, mugshot the next. WILD.

From Mixtapes To Mugshots: The Arrest That Shook 1017

JONESBORO, ARKANSAS just became the backdrop for a real life plot twist. Police scooped up former 1017 Records rapper Bic Fizzle, real name Jeremiah Edrick Northern, and slapped him with a FIRST DEGREE MURDER charge. No bond hearing drama on camera, just a straight trip to CRAIGHEAD COUNTY JAIL where he got booked like any other Monday night.

According to local reports from the Jonesboro Sun, the charge stems from a shooting that went down that same night. Details on what actually sparked it are still thin, so nobody outside the investigation really knows the full story yet.

Gucci Mane built 1017 on chaos, but this ain’t the kind of headline anybody signs up for.

How A Robbery Turned Into A Body Count

Here’s the ugly part. Cops say this whole mess kicked off during SOME KIND OF ROBBERY THAT WENT SIDEWAYS Monday night in Jonesboro, Arkansas. Not Alabama like some posts floated around, actual Arkansas. Somewhere in that chaos, SOMEONE ENDED UP DEAD. A real person lost their life over what police describe as a robbery attempt gone wrong, according to the Jonesboro Sun. The exact details of how it went down haven’t been fully confirmed yet, so take the specifics with a grain of salt for now. What is confirmed is that JONESBORO POLICE NAME BIC FIZZLE AS THE MAIN SUSPECT in the killing. This isn’t some petty beef or diss track drama like Loaded Lux nonsense. This is a real death, a real charge, and a real mugshot.

Bic Fizzle Locked Up: What Happens Now?

RIGHT NOW BIC FIZZLE IS SITTING IN A CELL at Craighead County Detention Center in Jonesboro, Arkansas, booked on suspicion of first-degree murder. According to the Jonesboro Sun, cops say the shooting happened during what they believe was a botched robbery, but the full story on what actually went down that night still is not public. No formal charges beyond the booking suspicion have dropped yet, so this is still very much unfolding.

Here is why rap Twitter is losing it though: dude used to be signed to Gucci Mane’s 1017 Records. That label tie alone turned a local Arkansas homicide into national hip-hop news overnight. Tragic timing too, coming right after news of Lil Poppa’s death shook the culture. Buckle up, more details are coming.
