Personal Life

Garcia has stated on social media that he cannot read due to his dyslexia.

In February of 2018, Pump was arrested for discharging a firearm in a populated area. According to his manager, three men attempted to break into his home in the San Fernando Valley before opening fire on the front door. The police then determined that the bullet may have originated from within the residence and returned with a search warrant, subsequently discovering an unloaded handgun below the balcony and ammunition elsewhere in the residence.

The mother of Garcia was then investigated for endangering a child and having an unlocked firearm in the residence.

After a few months, Garcia was arrested in Miami for driving without a licence. Garcia’s manager announced in October 2018 that the rapper had served a prison term for a parole violation about the incident, but did not provide any additional information.

Following a performance in Vega, Garcia was arrested in Copenhagen for possession of marijuana in December of the same year. A $700 fine and a two-year ban on entering the country were imposed on him.

Warner Brothers contract

Lil Pump signed a recording contract with Warner Brothers in March 2018 that included an $8 million advance. The contract pays the rapper $9,000 for the first year, $12,000 for the second year, and $15,000 for the third through seventh years. These numbers are correct. In addition, he was awarded a 14% share of his royalties in the United States, which is significantly higher than the norm. Additionally, in certain sales formats, the rapper will receive 66% of his royalties.
