Yella Beezy, awaiting trial in the shooting death of rapper Mo3, will be allowed to work in a studio for five hours, once a week, according to a bond modification signed by District Judge Chika Anyiam.

Beezy, whose real name is Markies Conway, was released from the Dallas County Jail and ordered to remain confined to his home on March 28 after posting a bond that was reduced from $2 million to $750,000. He faces a charge of capital murder for allegedly hiring gunmen to kill Mo3 in November 2020.

During a bond hearing in March, prosecutors showed a video of Mo3 being chased down and someone firing shots at him on Interstate 35.

Beezy’s lawyers filed a motion asking for a temporary bond modification on April 15 so he could attend his child’s football game. That was rejected by the judge, but Anyiam agreed on Oct. 31 to allow him to work at a studio.
