It has been a tough week for rap stars. First Diddy, then Rick Ross, and now Nipsey Hussle has been arrested. The 29-year-old rapper was detained in Burbank, California on Wednesday.
The Los Angeles Times
reports the Crenshaw representative was stopped for a traffic violation
around 11 pm. Burbank police discovered Nipsey had an outstanding
warrant for driving with a suspended license
Nipsey reportedly gave the officers permission to search his vehicle.
He was then taken into custody after police discovered a codeine bottle
without a label. The “Feelin’ Myself” rapper could not produce a
prescription for the medication. Codeine is often used to make sizzurp
(aka purple drank).
According to police, Nipsey (born Ermias Asghedom) was arrested
for suspicion of possessing a controlled substance and the outstanding
warrant. He was later released after posting $1,000 bail.
