Latto Says She Was Arrested for Bringing a Loaded Gun to LAX Before $75,000 Private Jet Flight

Latto says there’s truth behind her recent rap lyrics about getting arrested for bringing a loaded gun to Los Angeles International Airport.

In a series of tweets posted on Friday, the “Big Energy” performer explained the true story behind her verse on drill rapper Mello Buckzz’s recent song “Boom, Pt. 2,” in which she raps the lyric, “I got locked up in the airport / Goddamn forgot the gun.”

The 24-year-old Grammy nominee responded to a fan who tweeted the lyric, writing, “True story!!!” Another fan then replied, “we need more insight on that story.”

Latto offered up details on the incident, writing on Twitter that she “went to LAX” for a $75,000 private jet flight to a concert in Alabama and was arrested for carrying a loaded pistol in her Birkin purse.

“Went to LAX w a loaded glock 17 in my Birk got locked & let out in a few hours lmaooo,” wrote the “Lottery” rapper. “booked a $75k jet to my show in Alabama & still made it on time!”

The musician noted that she doesn’t lie in her lyrics, writing, “no cap in my rap TUH.”

Following discourse about the incident, Latto took to Twitter again one day later and clapped back at individuals for claiming she bragged about getting arrested. “A mf answer a question for my fans & y’all think a bitch tryna flex going to jail lmao what,” she wrote. – Source

Rapper 21 Savage released from ICE detention but could still be deported – 2019

Rapper 21 Savage was released from Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody Wednesday after spending more than a week in detention, his attorney Charles Kuck said.

21 Savage, whose legal name is She’yaa Bin Abraham-Joseph, will be released on bond, his attorney said.

He was arrested February 3 by ICE, which said he was born in the United Kingdom and was in the United States illegally. His birth certificate says he was born in East London to British parents.

The Grammy-nominated rapper’s arrest shocked his legion of fans because he is closely associated with Atlanta and its music scene. He has said the “21” in his name is a reference to a street gang in Decatur near Atlanta, and his songs often refer to his past in East Atlanta’s Zone 6.

21 Savage was brought to the United States at age 7 and in 2005 left before returning a month later, according to Kuck. In 2006, 21 Savage’s parents failed to renew his visa. He’s been living in the United States illegally since then, according to immigration officials.

Attorneys Kuck, Dina LaPolt and Alex Spiro issued a statement on behalf of 21 Savage that thanked his supporters.

“21 Savage asked us to send a special message to his fans and supporters – he says that while he wasn’t present at the Grammy Awards, he was there in spirit and is grateful for the support from around the world and is, more than ever, ready to be with his loved ones and continue making music that brings people together,” the statement said. – Source
