21 Savage is now a permanent resident and can travel freely outside the US.
21 Savage, whose real name is She'yaa Bin Abraham-Joseph, has recently cleared every legal hurdle after his release from ICE custody ten days after his arrest. His attorney, Charles Kuck, announced on Oct. 6 that "His immigration court proceedings have now been terminated, and he is a lawful permanent resident of the United States with the freedom to travel internationally."

In 2019, 21 Savage was detained by ICE agents in Georgia due to his expired visa upon arrival in the United States from London along with his mother when he was seven years old. He voiced his opinion to Good Morning America that same year, stating that the enforcement of immigration policy is what is broken, not the policy itself. He said that "I don't think the policy is broken. I feel like the way they enforce the policy is broken. I've been here 19 years, this is all I know. I don't feel like you should be arrested and put in a place where a murderer would be for just being in the country too long."

To mark the milestone of his release, 21 Savage posted a video to his Instagram account using the platform's Reel feature, featuring clips of his career and early childhood life, set to Skylar Grey's 'Coming Home'. The accompanying press release said that this marks the beginning of a new chapter, announcing that he "will soon perform for the first time in London. More information to follow soon."

True to his word, 21 Savage most recently appeared in Canada alongside his frequent collaborator, Drake, for his tour which wrapped up on Sept. 5. This was his first performance outside of the United States since his arrest and detention by ICE.

Obtaining a visa or green card is not an easy process. According to the USCIS website, the process of obtaining a visa requires a lot of steps before it can be issued. Abraham-Joseph was eligible for an adjustment of status, which means that he could apply for permanent resident status without having to return to his home country. After paying the immigrant visa fee, it can take up to three months for a permanent resident card to be issued.

21 Savage is now a lawful permanent resident of the United States and is free to travel abroad without any worry. He has gone through the long and arduous process of obtaining a visa and is now living in the United States freely.
