21 Savage is ready to come home.
The Grammy winner, 30, can now legally travel outside the U.S. after becoming a “lawful permanent resident,” according to a statement from his attorney, Charles Kuck, obtained by PEOPLE.
“She’yaa Bin Abraham-Joseph has followed all applicable immigration laws since he was initially detained by ICE,” Savage’s immigration attorney said. “His immigration proceedings have now been terminated and he is a lawful permanent resident of the United States with the freedom to travel internationally.”
News of the musician’s ability to travel abroad comes more than four years after he was arrested by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement in a “targeted operation” over his visa, which expired in 2006.
He was released after spending 10 days in a detention center in Georgia, the Associated Press writes.

The Atlanta musician now plans to take his talents home, as he teased a return to London – where he grew up before his mother brought him to the US as a child.
Savage shared a video compilation of performance clips and childhood memories on Instagram, soundtracked by Skylar Grey’s “Coming Home.”
“London… I’m coming home,” Savage concluded the video.

Drake, who was on the road with the rapper in the middle of their joint It’s All a Blur Tour, commented on the post with a correction implying that he might be joining his pal in London. “We are,” Drake, 36, wrote.
The rapper recently addressed the resolution of Savage’s immigration issues on his new song “8am in Charlotte,” which appears on his latest LP, For all dogs.
“Savage got his green card right at the consulate,” Drake snapped. Where I am going, you too, brother, we Yugoslavs.
