All these new rappers keep getting into trouble once they make it big.
While Bobby Shmurda is still doing jail time over drugs and guns, fellow Brooklyn rapper Desiigner has also found himself in trouble over similar charges.
The ‘Panda’ hitmaker was arrested in NYC last night after a road rage incident. The rapper and 4 others got into an argument with passengers of another car after which Desiigner allegedly pointed a loaded gun towards the driver of that car. That person called 911 and Police recovered Oxycontin and other drugs in the SUV. According to TMZ, all 5 were arrested and charged with criminal possession of a controlled substance and criminal possession of drugs with intent to sell, both of which are felonies.
Desiigner has also been charged with criminal possession of a loaded weapon and menacing, and is currently in Police’s custody.
UPDATE: TMZ reports that the gun charge in the case has been dropped. But the rapper still faces charges of felony possession of a controlled substance and menacing.
UPDATE 2: Designer is free and here’s his celebratory message.
