According to TMZ, Boosie's team had the "Retaliation" artist take down his caption. 

The rapper's revelation comes after a rough 2014. Boosie was released from prison in March 2014, after five years behind bars for marijuana possession and probation violation. He's also been battling diabetes for years, which made headlines following an onstage incident in NYC in May 2015.
