Rapper 2 Chainz held for drug possession

MUMBAI: Music and drugs have had a long history together with many musicians known to consume drugs for various reasons. While the matter had subsided a bit in the past, it has resurfaced again as popular rapper 2 Chainz was held at the Los Angeles International Airport for possession of marijuana.

The ‘Birthday Song’ rapper was charged with felony narcotics possession. He was reportedly in possession of Promethazine, one of the main ingredients in sizzurp. Police also found weed on the 35-year-old rapper whose real name is Tauheed Epps.

As per reports, he was arrested from Terminal 5 of the Los Angeles International Airport before boarding a flight out of El Lay.

The rapper recently had a tryst with the police, when he was robbed at gunpoint in San Francisco. He was slated to perform at a local radio station's Summer Jam concert at the Oracle Arena in Oakland, when his wallet and mobile were taken.

Reports state that, he was with five members of his entourage walking down the 800 block of Howard Street when the incident happened. They were allegedly approached by three men, including one holding a handgun. One shot was fired and the thieves took off in a gray sedan.

The singer had earlier tweeted, “Rule #1 if a rapper gets robbed people usually post items that has been taken. Rings, chains, watch, money etc. 2 answer that question. Rule#2 if a rapper gets shot he usually go to hospital or dies. Rule# 3 we definitely got geeked up in San Fran , best smoke in the world. 2 blessed 2 stress.”
