Troy Ave has been out of jail on bail in July, after serving about two months on attempted murder charges for the May shooting at Irving Plaza.

The conditions of his release bar him from touring or performing anywhere, as well as from going to clubs. He also has to be at home by 11pm. Of course, anything is better than jail, but his lawyer says even these restrictions are hurting him, and “he’s barely able to get by.”

Ave reportedly was getting between $6k-$10k per show, and had to cancel “at least 50” tour dates because of the arrest. He now owes a lot of those promoters the advance they’d given him, or he will be sued for breach of contract. Ave and his lawyer have asked the judge to lift the restrictions, but the judge is denying it for now. His next court date is November 4.

“I think they’re waiting to see what happens in the short term to see if he regains the ability to perform,” his lawyer said. “Touring is what drives everything else, and it’s hard to release music if he can’t promote it with live performances.”

Ave paid his $500,000 bail by using his mother’s Crown Heights home as collateral.
