On 28 August 2024, thanks to the judge's permission, he published the single Take 5 after the judge originally did not allow him to release music during his sentence.

Judicial proceedings

On the evening of 11 July 2023 Shiva was attacked in the courtyard of his record company by two young people belonging to the rapper Rondodasosa's crew:[5] after suffering a blow with a brass knuckle that fractured his jaw, Shiva fired four gunshots towards the attackers, wounding them in the legs.[6][7] On 26 October 2023 Shiva was arrested for attempted murder, illegal possession of weapons (including two machetes and a compressed air gun) and receiving stolen goods.[8] On 21 February 2024, after four months of detention at the San Vittore prison, the judge, after preliminary investigations, relaxed the precautionary measure, granting him house arrest.[9] On 10 July he was sentenced at first instance by the Court of Milan to a sentence of 6+12 years in prison.[10]
